Calculate the speed of light if the wavelength is 3cm and the period is 1*10^-10

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 :))

What is the acceleration of an object that goes from 45m/s to 10 m/s in 5 seconds?

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf a= -7 \ m/s^2}}$

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity over time.

$a= \frac {v_f-v_i}{t}$

The object accelerates from 45 meters per second to 10 meters per second in 5 seconds. Therefore,

$v_f=10 \ m/s \\v_i= 45 \ m/s \\t= 5 \ s$

Substitute the values into the formula.

$a= \frac{ 10 \ m/s - 45 \ m/s}{5 \ s}$

Solve the numerator.

$a= \frac { -35 \ m/s}{5 \ s}$

Divide.

$a= -7 \ m/s/s$

$a= -7 \ m/s^2$

The acceleration of the object is -7 meters per square second. The acceleration is negative because the object's velocity decreases and the object slows down.

What is the lowest temperature that a substance can reach

irina1246 [14]

It's known as Absolute Zero. On the Kelvin scale, 0 is the lowest that anything can reach in temperature. It's supposedly impossible to reach, but it's the known limit.

A swing has a period of 10 seconds. What is its frequency ?

kow [346]

Frequency = 1 / (period)

Frequency = 1 / (10 seconds) = (1/10) ( / second) = 0.1 per second = 0.1 Hz.
