The lowest and highest wavelengths of this part of the electromagnetic spectrum are:
\lambda_1 = 200 nm=200 \cdot 10^{-9} m
\lambda_2 = 400 nm = 400 \cdot 10^{-9} m

We can calculate the corresponding frequencies by using:
f= \frac{c}{\lambda}
where c is the speed of light. If we use this equation, we find:
f_1 = \frac{c}{\lambda_1}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{200 \cdot 10^9 m} =1.5 \cdot 10^{15}Hz
f_2 = \frac{c}{\lambda_2}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{400 \cdot 10^9 m} =7.5 \cdot 10^{14}Hz
Therefore, the lowest frequency associated with this portion of the spectrum is 
f_2 = 7.5 \cdot 10^{14} Hz

Two satellites A and B of the same mass are orbiting Earth in concentric orbits. The distance of satellite B from Earth’s center
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

ratio of tangential velocity of satellite b and a will be 0.707

Explanation:

We have given distance of satellite B from satellite A is twice

So r_b=2r_a

Tangential speed of the satellite is given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}, G is gravitational constant. M is mass of satellite and r is distance from the earth

We have to find the ratio of tangential velocities of b and a

From the relation we can see that tangential velocity is inversely proportional to square root of distance from earth

So \frac{v_b}{v_a}=\sqrt{\frac{r_a}{r_b}}

\frac{v_b}{v_a}=\sqrt{\frac{r_a}{2r_a}}

\frac{v_b}{v_a}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}

\frac{v_b}{v_a}=0.707

So ratio of tangential velocity of satellite b and a will be 0.707

Calculate the gravitational potential energy of the interacting pair of the Earth and a 4 kg block sitting on the surface of the
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

- 2.425 x 10^5 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy between earth and the bock is given by

U=-G\frac{Mm}{r}

Where, G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

M is the mass of earth = 5.8 x 10^24 kg

m is the mass of block = 4 kg

r be the radius of earth = 6380 km = 6380 x 10^3 m

by substituting the values in the above expression, we get

U=-6.67\times10^{-11}\frac{5.8\times 10^{24}\times 4}{6380\times 10^{3}}

U = - 2.425 x 10^5 J

During what intervals was jenny negatively accelerating
PolarNik [594]

Jenny's acceleration was negative during the intervals of time when her speed was decreasing.

That's really all we can tell, because you really haven't given us any information except her name.

Why dose the weight of an object change with increasing elevation on earth
bulgar [2K]

Because the strength of the gravitational forces between two objects
depends on the distance between the objects' centers, and when your
elevation changes, so does the distance between your center and the
center of the Earth.
