From our physics class, we know that Work is a product of Force and Displacement. The force must be the force in the same direction with the displacement. So force and displacement must be parallel.

 

A. How much work in J does the string do on the boy if the boy stands still?

Since we know that: Work = Force * Displacement

and in this case displacement is equal to zero, therefore Work must also be equal to zero.

Work = 0

 

B. How much work does the string do on the boy if the boy walks a horizontal distance of 11m away from the kite?

Now are given a displacement of 11 m which is a horizontal distance. Therefore we must first calculate the horizontal component of force:

Fx = 4.5 N * cos 30

Fx = 3.897 N

 

So work is:

Work = 3.897 N * 11 m

<span>Work = 42.87 J ~ 43 J</span>

A television remote control uses infrared light with a wavelength of 940 nm. What is the frequency of the light?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Frequency = 3.19 * 10^14 Hz or 1/s

Explanation:

Relationship b/w frequency and wavelength can be expressed as:

C = wavelength * frequency, where c is speed of light in vacuum which is 3.0*10^8 m/s.

Now simply input value (but before that convert wavelength into meters to match the units, you do this by multiply it by 10^-9 so it will be 940*10^-9)

3.0 * 10^8 = Frequency * 940 x 10^-9

Frequency = 3.19 * 10^14 Hz or 1/s
