What happens to an electromagnetic wave when the frequency is doubled?

1 answer:

4 0

The product of (frequency) times (wavelength) is always
the same number (the speed of the wave).

So if the frequency is doubled, the wavelength has to drop to
half of what it was, in order to keep their product constant.

How many photons are absorbed during the dental x-ray?

MariettaO [177]

<span>E=hc/wav. len
E = (6.62 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8)/0.0275 x 10^-9
E = 7.22182 x 10^-15 J
To convert to eV divide by 1.6 x 10^-19
E = 7.22182 x 10^-15/1.6 x 10^-19 eV
E =45.36 x 10^3 eV
Th energy, E, of a single x-ray photon in eV is = 45.36keV.

Number of photons, n = total energy/ energy of photon
n = 3.85 x 10^-6/7.22182 x 10^-15
n = 5.33 x 10^8 photons </span>

A 0.560 kg snowball is fired from a cliff 14.2 m high with an initial velocity of 13.3 m/s, directed 26.0° above the horizontal.

enot [183]

Answer:

a) v = 21.34 m/s

b) v = 21.34 m/s

c) v = 21.34 m/s

Explanation:

Mass of the snowball, m = 0.560 kg

Height of the cliff, h = 14.2 m

Initial velocity of the ball, u = 13.3 m/s

θ = 26°

The speed of the slow ball as it reaches the ground, v = ?

The initial Kinetic energy of the snow ball, $KE_{0} = 0.5 mu^{2}$

Potential energy of the snow ball at the given height, PE = mgh

Final Kinetic energy of the ball as it reaches the ground, $KE_{f} = 0.5mv^{2}$

a) Using the principle of energy conservation,

$KE_{0} + PE = KE_{f} \\0.5mu^{2} + mgh = 0.5mv^{2}\\v^{2} =2( 0.5u^{2} + gh)\\v^{2} =u^{2} + 2gh\\v = \sqrt{u^{2} + 2gh} \\v = \sqrt{13.3^{2} + 2*9.8*14.2}\\v = 21.34 m/s$

b) The speed remains v = 21.34 m/s since it is not a function of the angle of launch

c)The principle of energy conservation used cancels out the mass of the object, therefore the speed is not dependent on mass

v = 21. 34 m/s

If you are sitting in your seat how are the forces acting on you?

erik [133]

Answer:

If you are sitting in a chair right now there are two forces acting on you. The first is gravity which is what may make it difficult to stand up . The other is the force of the chair itself pushing up on you.
