Answer:

Explanation:

The energy E of a photon is

directly proportional to its frequency f by E = hf, where h is Planck's constant (above)

and the wavelength w is inversely proportional to the frequency by w = c/f, so we have

E related to w by: E = hc/w. Since h and c are constants, their product hc is constant

being 1.989 * 10**-25 joule-meters. So if we know E is 1.32 * 10**-18 J, we have:

1.32 * 10**-18 = (1.989 * 10**-25) / w or w = (1.989 * 10**-25) / (1.32 * 10**-18) Doing

the division and we find w = 1.507 x 10-7 meters, or 150.7 nanometers. (ultraviolet)

A. 150 x 10-7nm

D.sound insulators prevent from being transmitted better than elastic solids

Explanation:

The correct option from the given choices is that, sound insulators prevent sound from being transmitted better than elastic solids.

Sound is a form of wave that transmits energy from one point to another.

This wave form is a longitudinal wave in nature.

During the propagation of sound, it requires a material medium to move.

Sound insulators are special materials designed not to transmit sound energy.

Such materials cuts off sound. They are better than elastic solids in preventing sound transmission.

Answer:

$v_{2f} = \frac{2vm_1}{m_2 + m_1}$

Explanation:

If the collision is elastic and exactly head-on, then we can use the law of momentum conservation for the motion of the 2 balls

Before the collision

$P_i = m_1v$

After the collision

$P_f = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

So using the law of momentum conservation

$P_i = P_f$

$m_1v = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$

We can solve for the speed of ball 1 post collision in terms of others:

$v_{1f} = v - v_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1}$

Their kinetic energy is also conserved before and after collision

$m_1v^2/2 = m_1v_{1f}^2/2 + m_2v_{2f}^2/2$

$m_1v^2 = m_1v_{1f}^2 + m_2v_{2f}^2$

From here we can plug in $v_{1f} = v - v_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1}$

$m_1v^2 = m_1\left(v - v_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1}\right)^2 + m_2v_{2f}^2$

$m_1v^2 = m_1\left(v^2 - 2vv_{2f}\frac{m_2}{m_1} + v_{2f}^2\frac{m_2^2}{m_1^2}\right) + m_2v_{2f}^2$

$m_1v^2 = m_1v^2 - 2vv_{2f}m_2 + v_{2f}^2\frac{m_2^2}{m_1} + m_2v_{2f}^2$

$v_{2f}^2(m_2 + \frac{m_2^2}{m_1}) - 2vm_2v_{2f} = 0$

$v_{2f}(1 + \frac{m_2}{m_1}) = 2v$

$v_{2f} = \frac{2v}{1 + \frac{m_2}{m_1}} = \frac{2v}{\frac{m_1 + m_2}{m_1}} = \frac{2vm_1}{m_2 + m_1}$

Facts about river deltas

ivolga24 [154]

Deltas are complex depositional landforms that develop at the mouths of rivers. They are composed of sediment that is deposited as a river enters a standing body of water and loses forward momentum. Famous deltas include the Mississippi delta in Louisiana and the Nile delta in Egypt.

What do biologist geologist have in common how are they different

Delicious77 [7]

The prefix for Bio is life so a biologist studies life of living organisms
The prefix for Geo is earth so it would be the study of earth.
What is in common would be animals and plants
what is different is an Geologist studies only earth Biologist studies everything living. I hope this was helpful and I didn't confuse you.
