<span>The answer is: ultraviolet The energy (E) of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency f, by Planck's formula: E = hf, where h is Planck's constant (6.625 * 10**-34 joule-second). The frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength w by: f = c/w, where c is the speed of light, 3.0 * 10**8 meters per second. Combine these formulas and we see that the energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength by: E = hc/w If the energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength, a photon with twice the energy has half the wavelength of our 442-nm. photon in this example. So its wavelength is 221 nm. which is in the ultraviolet range.</span>

flipper (the dolphin) is out in the open ocean hunting tuna avec. he emits his pulse at 22khz and .42 seconds later he hears it
marusya05 [52]
First we need to find the speed of the dolphin sound wave in the water. We can use the following relationship between frequency and wavelength of a wave:
v=\lambda f
where
v is the wave speed
\lambda its wavelength
f its frequency
Using \lambda = 2 cm = 0.02 m and f=22 kHz = 22000 Hz, we get
v=(0.02 m)(22000 Hz)=440 m/s

We know that the dolphin sound wave takes t=0.42 s to travel to the tuna and back to the dolphin. If we call L the distance between the tuna and the dolphin, the sound wave covers a distance of S=2 L in a time t=0.42 s, so we can write the basic relationship between space, time and velocity for a uniform motion as:
v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{2L}{t}
and since we know both v and t, we can find the distance L between the dolphin and the tuna:
L= \frac{vt}{2}= \frac{(440 m/s)(0.42 s)}{2}=92.4 m

Which statement correctly defines power?
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Power=V\, I which corresponds to the second option shown: "voltage times amperage"

Explanation:

The electric power is the work done to move a charge Q across a given difference of potential V per unit of time.

Since such electrical work is the product of the potential difference V times the charge that moves through that potential, and this work is to be calculated by the unit of time, we need to divide the product by time (t) which leads to the following final simple equation:

Power=\frac{V\,Q}{t} =V\,\frac{Q}{t} = V\, I

Notice that we replaced the quotient representing charge per unit of time (Q/t) by the actual current running through the circuit.

This corresponds to the second option shown in the question: "Voltage times amperage".
