\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu} = \frac{3 \cdot 10^8}{2.3 \cdot 10^9} = \frac{3}{23} \approx 0.130435 \approx 0.13 \ m.

Answer: wavelength is 1.30 \times 10^8 nm.

The frequency of the microwave is, f = 2.30 GHz.

To Find frequency use the formula:

c=fλ

Where, c is the speed of electromagnetic wave or light. f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength of light.

Rearranging, \lambda = \frac{c}{f}

Plug in the values,

\lambdam = \frac{3 \times 10^8 m/s}{2.30 GHz\frac{10^9 Hz}{1 GHz}}=0.130 m\frac{10^9 nm}{1 m} = 1.30 \times 10^8 nm.

Calculate the density 1.33*10⁻⁷ gcm⁻³ into kgm⁻³.
Alex Ar [27]

1 Kg = 1,000g

Therefore 1.33 × 10^-7 g = 1.33 × 10^-10 kg

1m³ = 1,000,000cm³

Therefore 1 cm³ = 1 × 10^-6 m³

Dividing the mass per unit volume you get:

(1.33 × 10^-10 kg) ÷ (1 × 10^-6 m³)

= 1.33 × 10^(-10--6) = 1.33 × 10^(-10 + 6) = 1.33 × 10^-4 kg/m³

Density = 1.33 × 10^-4 kg/m³

Answer:

1. increases

2. increases

3. increases

Explanation:

Part 1:

First of all, since the box remains at rest, the horizontal net force acting on the box must equal zero:

F1 - fs = 0.

And this friction force fs is:

fs = Nμs,

where μs is the static coefficient of friction, and N is the normal force.

Originally, the normal force N is equal to mg, where m is the mass of the box, and g is the constant of gravity. Now, there is an additional force F2 acting downward on the box, which means it increases the normal force, since the normal force by Newton's third law, is the force due to the surface acting on the box upward:

N = mg + F2.

So, F2 is increasing, that means fs is increasing too.

Part 2:

As explained in the part 1, N = mg + F2. F2 is increasing, so the normal force is thus increasing.

Part 3:

In part 1 and part 2, we know that fs = Nμs, and since the normal force N is increasing, the maximum possible static friction force fs, max is also increasing.

A 50.0-kg box rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.300 and the
Dimas [21]

Answer:

98N and 147N

Explanation:

We have the following information:

m=50kg\\\mu_s =0.4\\\mu_k = 0.2\\F=140N

We can find the static fricton force as follow,

F=\mu_s * N

Where N is the normal force (mg)

F=0.3*50*9.8\\F=147N

Static friction force at 147N is greater than the force applied hence body does not move.

F=\mu_k N = 0.2*50*9.8= 98N

Dolphin echolocation is similar to ultrasound. Reflected sound waves
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Waves with high frequencies have shorter wavelengths that work better  than low frequency waves for successful echolocation.

Explanation:

To understand why high-frequency waves work better  than low frequency waves for successful echolocation, first we have to understand the relation between frequency and wavelength.

The relation between frequency and wavelength is given by

λ = c/f

Where λ is wavelength, c is the speed of light and f is the frequency.

Since the speed of light is constant, the wavelength and frequency are inversely related.

So that means high frequency waves have shorter wavelengths, which is the very reason for the successful echolocation because waves having shorter wavelength are more likely to reach and hit the target and then reflect back to the dolphin to form an image of the object.

Thus, waves with high frequencies have shorter wavelengths that work better  than low frequency waves for successful echolocation.

What advantages does an electromagnet have over a permanent magnet?
KonstantinChe [14]
Electromagnets can be turned off, this makes it easier to release things from the magnetic field. 

Hope this helps :)
