Answer:

As the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave _decrease__ the frequency of the wave _increase_______.

Explanation:

What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength?

Wavelength and frequency of light are closely related. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength.

That number, also known as the frequency, will be larger for a short-wavelength wave than for a long-wavelength wave. The equation that relates wavelength and frequency is:

V= fλ

where v= velocity

f= frequency

λ = wavelength

⇒ f = v/λ

also f ∝ 1/λ

For electromagnetic radiation, the speed is equal to the speed of light, c, and the equation becomes:

C= fλ

where c= Speed of light

f= frequency

λ = wavelength

⇒ f = v/λ

also f ∝ 1/λ

The volume of liquid flowing per second is called the volume flow rate Q and has the dimensions of [L]3/[T]. The flow rate of li

melamori03 [73]

Answer: n=4

Explanation:

We have the following expression for the volume flow rate $Q$ of a hypodermic needle:

$Q=\frac{\pi R^{n}(P_{2}-P_{1})}{8\eta L}$ (1)

Where the dimensions of each one is:

Volume flow rate $Q=\frac{L^{3}}{T}$

Radius of the needle $R=L$

Length of the needle $L=L$

Pressures at opposite ends of the needle $P_{2}$ and $P_{1}=\frac{M}{LT^{2}}$

Viscosity of the liquid $\eta=\frac{M}{LT}$

We need to find the value of $n$ whicha has no dimensions, and in order to do this, we have to rewritte (1) with its dimensions:

$\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi L^{n}(\frac{M}{LT^{2}})}{8(\frac{M}{LT}) L}$ (2)

We need the right side of the equation to be equal to the left side of the equation (in dimensions):

$\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi}{8} \frac{ L^{n}}{LT}$ (3)

$\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi}{8} \frac{ L^{n-1}}{T}$ (4)

As we can see $n$ must be 4 if we want the exponent to be 3:

$\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi}{8} \frac{ L^{4-1}}{T}$ (5)

Finally:

$\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi}{8} \frac{ L^{3}}{T}$ (6)

Using examples, explain why the first and second Newton laws of motion are significant for living organisms.

Triss [41]

Answer:

1) Newton's first law of motion states an object will remain at rest or in uniform will be in uniform motion in a straight line unless a force acts on it

2) Newton's second law states the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the applied force acting on an object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object

Explanation:

1) With Newton's first law, we are able arrange things within a space and schedule meetings in time knowing that they will remain in place unless an external force changes their positions

2) An example of Newton's second law of motion is that small objects such as a ball are easily accelerated and can be given appreciable acceleration for flight by single, one time contact (such as kicking the ball) while larger objects such as a rock require sustained force application to change their location.
