A certain fm radio station broadcasts electromagnetic waves at a frequency of 125000 hertz. these radio waves travel at a speed

of 300,000,000 m/s what is the wavelength of these radio waves?
Physics

4 0
Speed = frequency x wavelength
300,000,000 = 125000 x wavelength
wavelength = 125000/300,000,000 =4.16667x10^-4 meters
or 4.1667E-4 meters

How to find the magnitude and direction of a resultant velocity?
mixas84 [53]
Find the horizontal components vcos30 ...one goes right and one goes left so they cancel each other.
Find vertical components vsin30.....there are two of them.... so 2vcos30....hey presto... resultant velocity = 2vCos30

Star A and Star B have different apparent brightnesses but identical luminosities. Star A is 10 light years away from earth and
STALIN [3.7K]

intensity of a star is inversely depends on the square of the distance from the star

we can say it is given as

\frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}

here we know that

\frac{I_1}{I_2} = 36 times

also we know that

r_1 = 10 Ly

now we will have

\frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}

36 = \frac{r_2^2}{10^2}

r_2 = 60 Ly

so other star is at distance 60 Light years

estion: Why is it important to use vector quantities and not just scalar quantities to describe the motion of an object? Vector
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Vector quantities are important in the study of motion. Some examples of vector quantities include force, velocity, acceleration, displacement, and momentum. The difference between a scalar and vector is that a vector quantity has a direction and a magnitude, while a scalar has only a magnitude. Vector, in physics, a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. It is typically represented by an arrow whose direction is the same as that of the quantity and whose length is proportional to the quantity's magnitude. A quantity which does not depend on direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude and a direction. The resulting motion of the aircraft in terms of displacement, velocity, and acceleration are also vector quantities. A vector quantity is different to a scalar quantity because a quantity that has magnitude but no particular direction is described as scalar. A quantity that has magnitude and acts in a particular direction is described as vector.
