Frequency = speed / wavelength

(6 m/s) / (12 m) = 0.5 Hz.

That's not infrared light.
Infrared light waves move about 50 million times faster than that, and they're only about 0.00000007 as long as that.

The rectangular plates in a parallel-plate capacitor are 0.063 m x 5.4 m. A distance of 3.5 x 10^-5m separate the plates. The pl
Aleks04 [339]

The capacitance of the capacitor is 1.8\cdot 10^{-9}F

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by the equation

C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}

where

k is the dielectric constant of the medium

\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m is the vacuum permittivity

A is the area of the plates

d is the separation between the plates

For the capacitor in this problem, we have:

k = 2.1 is the dielectric constant

d=3.5\cdot 10^{-5}m is the separation between the plates

A=0.063m \cdot 0.054m = 0.0034 m^2 (I assumed that 5.4 m is a typo, since it is not a realistic size for the side of the plate)

Therefore, the capacitance of the  capacitor is

C=\frac{(2.1)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(0.0034)}{3.5\cdot 10^{-5}}=1.8\cdot 10^{-9}F

a spring is stretched 20 cm by a 30.0 n force. determine the work done in stretching the spring from 0 to 40 cm?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

The work done when a spring is stretched from 0 to 40cm is 4J.

What is work done?

Work done is the magnitude of force multiplied by displacement of an object. It is also the amount of energy transferred to an object when work is done on that.

The work done on the spring to stretch to 40cm is,

F = kx

where F is force, k is force constant.

k = F / x = 10 N / 20 * 10^-2 m = 50 N/m

W = 0.5 * k * (x)^2

where W = work done, k = force constant.

W = 0.5 x 50 x (40 x 10^-2)^2 = 4 J.

Therefore, the work done on the spring when it is stretched to 40cm is 4J.

Alyse runs to her classroom which is 20 meters away. She forgets her physics book in her locker and must return 20 meters in the
notka56 [123]

The average velocity of Alyse is 0 m/s.

<h3>What is the average velocity of an object or a person?</h3>

The average velocity of a person is the average of all the velocities of moving as it moves.

Velocity on its own is the ratio of the displacement of a body and the time taken for that displacement.

Mathematically:

  • Average velocity = total displacement / time taken

Displacement is a vector quantity that measures the distance traveled by a moving body in a specific direction.

Hence, average velocity and velocity are both vector quantities.

Displacement takes a measure of the shortest possible distance along a straight line from the beginning of the motion until the end of the motion.

Calculating the average velocity of Alyse:

Assuming the initial direction is positive and n=backeard direction is negative:

Total displacement = 20 m + - (20 m)

Total displacement = 0 m

total time = 3 minutes

Average velocity = 0 m/ 3

Average velocity = 0 m/s

Could someone please explain what makes up the electromagnetic spectrum? Thank you.
faust18 [17]
These types include gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet, infrared, microwaves and radio waves. Together with visible light, all these types of radiation make up what we call the electromagnetic spectrum - the complete spectrum of radiation.
