Frequency represents the number of complete oscillations in one second. it is measured in Hertz (Hz). Electromagnetic waves are waves which do not require a material media for transmission. They travel with a speed of light.
The speed (m/s) of a wave is given by  frequency (Hz) × Wavelength (m)
Speed is 300,000 km/sec or 300,000,000 m/s and the wavelength is 300,000  km or 300,000,000 m.
Frequency = speed÷ wavelength
                 = 300000000 ÷ 300000000 = 1
Therefore, the frequency of the wave is 1Hz

A photographer wants to determine the color of light he can use in the darkroom that will not expose the films he is processing.
Sonbull [250]

For a photographer that wishes to determine the color of light that he can use in a dark room that will not expose the films he is processing, having used a Blue Incandescent bulb, he should proceed to use a Red Incandescent bulb for the next trial.

The photographer in question is performing an experiment. For these kinds of experiments it is important to identify the variables present, which can be of three kinds:

  1. Control variables
  2. Dependent variables
  3. Independent variables

For this experiment, the dependent variable is the exposure of the light onto the films, given that this is what we wish to measure. The independent variable will be the color of the light being used which is what will affect the dependent variable.

The remaining variable must be the control variable. Unlike the previous variables, we can have more than one of these. The control variable is there to make sure that only the dependent variable is affecting the outcome. We do this by keeping the control variable the same through each trial, which is why the photographer should not change the type of bulb in the second experiment, changing only the color of the light.

(a) If a proton with a kinetic energy of 6.2 MeV is traveling in a particle accelerator in a circular orbit with a radius of 0.5
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The fraction of its energy that it radiates every second is 3.02\times10^{-11}.

Explanation:

Suppose Electromagnetic radiation is emitted by accelerating charges. The rate at which energy is emitted from an accelerating charge that has charge q and acceleration a is given by

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{q^2a^2}{6\pi\epsilon_{0}c^3}

Given that,

Kinetic energy = 6.2 MeV

Radius = 0.500 m

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}

Put the value into the formula

a=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}mr}

Put the value into the formula

a=\dfrac{6.2\times10^{6}\times1.6\times10^{-19}}{\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.67\times10^{-27}\times0.51}

a=2.32\times10^{15}\ m/s^2

We need to calculate the rate at which it emits energy because of its acceleration is

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{q^2a^2}{6\pi\epsilon_{0}c^3}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{(1.6\times10^{-19})^2\times(2.3\times10^{15})^2}{6\pi\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(3\times10^{8})^3}

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=3.00\times10^{-23}\ J/s

The energy in ev/s

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{3.00\times10^{-23}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}\ J/s

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=1.875\times10^{-4}\ ev/s

We need to calculate the fraction of its energy that it radiates every second

\dfrac{\dfrac{dE}{dt}}{E}=\dfrac{1.875\times10^{-4}}{6.2\times10^{6}}

\dfrac{\dfrac{dE}{dt}}{E}=3.02\times10^{-11}

Hence, The fraction of its energy that it radiates every second is 3.02\times10^{-11}.
