All electromagnetic waves travel in vacuum at the speed of c=3×10^8 m/s. Find the wavelength of microwaves of frequency 10^10 Hz

1 answer:

5 0

Recall the wave equation, $c=f\lambda$ where c is the speed of the wave (m/s), f is the frequency of the wave (Hz) and λ is the wavelength of the wave (m).

$c=f\lambda \Rightarrow \lambda = \frac{c}{f}$ so $\lambda = \frac{3 \times 10^8}{10^{10}} = 0.03 \text{m}$

sesenic [268]

<span>Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of that substance per unit volume. It is a property that can be used to describe a substance. We calculate as follows:

Density = 182.48 g - 115.25 g / 0.100 pint ( 0.47 L / 1 pint ) = 67.23 g/0.047L
Density =1430.43 g/L </span>

A gas expands and does PV work on its surroundings equal to 319 J. At the same time, it absorbs 136 J of heat from the surroundi

LiRa [457]

Answer:

The change in energy of the gas during the process is $-1.83\times 10^{2}$ joules.

Explanation:

We can represent this process by the First Law of Thermodynamics, in which gas does work on its surroundings and absorbs heat from there to describe its change in energy. In other words:

$Q_{in} - W_{out} = \Delta E$
