Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (42 - 35) = 7 m/s

Time for the change = 40 sec

Acceleration = (7 m/s) / (40sec) = 7/40 = <em>0.175 m/s²

What is the wavelength that corresponds to a frequency of 6.00x1014 hz?
kipiarov [429]
The basic relationship between wavelength \lambda, frequency f and speed c of an electromagnetic wave is 
\lambda=  \frac{c}{f}
where c is the speed of light. Substituting numbers, we find:
\lambda=  \frac{c}{f}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{6.0 \cdot 10^{14} Hz}=5\cdot 10^{-7} m

A ladybug sits at the outer edge of a turntable, and a gentleman bug sits halfway between her and the axis of rotation. The turn
inn [45]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The ladybug begins to slide

Explanation:

To solve the question we assume that the frictional force of the ladybug and the gentleman bug are the same

Where the  frictional force equals F_{Friction} = μ×N = m×g×μ

and the centripetal force is given by m·ω²·r

If we denote the properties of the ladybug as 1 and that of the gentleman bug as 2, we have

m₁×g×μ = m₁·ω²·r₁ ⇒ g×μ = ω²·r₁

and for the gentleman bug we have

m₂×g×μ = m₂·ω²·r₂ ⇒ g×μ = ω²·r₂

But r₁ = 2×r₂

Therefore substituting the values of r₁ =2×r₂ we have

g×μ = ω²·r₁ = g×μ = ω²·2·r₂

Therefore   ω²·r₂ = 0.5×g×μ for the ladybug. That is the ladybug has to overcome half the frictional force experienced by the gentleman bug before it start to slide

The ladybug begins to slide
