Answer:

D. Ultraviolet disinfecting wand.

Explanation:

Energy in light waves depends upon the frequency o the waves. Higher the frequency of the waves, higher the amount of energy it carries. Similarly, waves with shorter wavelength has higher frequencies and thus more energy.

Ultraviolet disinfecting wand would produce most energy out of the four options because it produce UV waves which have shorter wavelength and higher frequency.

The speed of an arrow fired from a compound

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

A.) The arrow`s range is 624,996 m

B.) The arrow`s range is 846.887 m, when the horse is galloping

Explanation:

We have a case of oblique movement. In these cases the movement in the X axis is a Uniform Rectelinear Movement (URM), and a Uniform Accelerated Movement (UAM) in the Y axis.

By the way, the equations that we use for the X axis will be from URM, and those for the Y axis wiil be from UAM.

Equations

X axis:

$X=v_{ox}*t$

$v_{0x} =v_0cos(\alpha)$

Y axis:

$Y= Y_0 +v_{y0} t - \frac{g}{2} t^2$

A.) First, it is necessary to know t, total time.

To figure out t value, we use UAM, since time is determined by this movement.

Now, at the end of the movement, $Y=0$ , then

$0= Y_0 +v_{y0} t - \frac{g}{2} t^2$

$0=2.4m+79m/s*sin(39)t-(1/2*9.81m/s^2)t^2$

Caculate the segcond degree equation to obtain the two possible values for t:

$t_1= 10.18 \\t_2= -0.04046$

But, in physics, time it could not be negative, so we take $t_1= 10.18$

Caculate now:

$X=79m/s*cos(\39)*10.18s= 624.996 m$

B.) Now, the narrow has an additional speed, that could be sum to the speed due to the bow.

$v_0= 79m/s+13m/s= 92m/s$

Using the same procedure that item A, caculate X

First, we need to know the new time

$0=2.4m+92m/s*sin(39)t-(1/2*9.81m/s^2)t^2$

And we obtain:

$t_1=11.845s\\t_2=-0.041s$

One more time, we take the positive time: $t_1=11.845s$

Finally:

$X=92m/s *cos(39)*11.845s=846.887 m$

What is the frequency of an electromagnetic wave that has a wavelength of 300,000 km? (the speed of light is 300,000 km/s.)?

expeople1 [14]

Frequency represents the number of complete oscillations in one second. it is measured in Hertz (Hz). Electromagnetic waves are waves which do not require a material media for transmission. They travel with a speed of light.
The speed (m/s) of a wave is given by frequency (Hz) × Wavelength (m)
Speed is 300,000 km/sec or 300,000,000 m/s and the wavelength is 300,000 km or 300,000,000 m.
Frequency = speed÷ wavelength
= 300000000 ÷ 300000000 = 1
Therefore, the frequency of the wave is 1Hz

True/False: If an object stays still, but the observer moves, the Doppler Effect is still observered

Vladimir79 [104]

Well, Harry, what you said is not necessarily true the way you said it.
But we know what you mean, and what you meant to say is true.

The Doppler effect is observed if there is relative radial motion
between an object and an observer AND if the object happens
to be putting out sound or light in the observer's direction.

When performing the spike the ball should be hit with the ?

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

When you are performing spike it's most effective to strike the ball from the right or left side at a sharp downward angle. Whether you are spiking the ball from the right or left front position, position yourself behind the 10-foot line (attack line), which is the line that is about four steps away from the net.

A bus starts to move from rest. If its velocity becomes 90 km/hr after 8 seconds, calculate its acceleration.

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The acceleration is 11.25 km/hr

Explanation:

Divide the velocity over time to find the acceleration. The bus is accelerating 11.25 km/hr per second in the range of 8 seconds
