First you find the frequency which is. 1/T(period) so u get 1*10^10
Now that you know frequency u can solve for speed: s= wavelength* frequency, but don't forget to convert 3cm into meters: 3/100= .03m so now you do (1*10^10)(.3)= 300,000,000 m/s or 3*10^8 m/s

Hope this helped :))

The thermal energy in a heat engine is used to move a piston. Which best describes why this is possible?

Natali [406]

Answer:

The increase in thermal energy results in an increase in pressure.

Explanation:

The increase in entropy is directly related to the increase in temperature. So the thermal energy in heat engine increases the temperature of that surrounding.
Higher temperature means the kinetic energy of particles is also higher, their vibration is increasing. So it increases the pressure (ideal gas law).
In this way the increment in the thermal energy in heat engine moves piston by increasing the pressure.

Answer:

The announcement he had made promised to overturn our understanding of the Universe. If the data gathered by 160 scientists working on the project were correct, the unthinkable had been observed. Particles – in this case, neutrinos – had travelled faster than light.
