What is the frequency of an electromagnetic wave that has a wavelength of 300,000 km? (the speed of light is 300,000 km/s.)?

1 answer:

6 0

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 1.90-m-long barbell has a 25.0 kg weight on its left end and a 37.0 kg weight on its right end. if you ignore the weight of th

gregori [183]

Answer: The center of gravity is 1.1338 m away from the left side of the barbell

Explanation:

Length of the barbell = 1.90 m

The distance center of gravity from left = x

Mass on the left side = 25 kg

The distance center of gravity from right = 1.90 - x

Mass on the right side = 37 kg

At the balance point: $m_1x_1=m_2x_2$

$25 kg\times x=37 kg\times (1.90-x)$

$x=1.1338 m$

The center of gravity is 1.1338 m away from the left side of the barbell

Sophie [7]

Answer:

the acceleration of harry is equal to 66.126 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

harry is 35 m behind Draco

speed of Draco = 40 m/s

original speed of harry = 50 m/s

acceleration = ?

time taken by the Draco

t = $\dfrac{r}{u} =\dfrac{75}{40}$

t = 1.875 s

distance covered by Harry

d = 35 + 175 = 210 m

to calculate the acceleration of harry

$s = u t+ \dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

$210 = 50\times 1.875+ \dfrac{1}{2}\times a\times 1.875^2$

a × 3.516 × 0.5 = 116.25

a = 66.126 m/s²

hence, the acceleration of harry is equal to 66.126 m/s²

Weekend A Assignment Differentiate between forced and damped oscillation

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

A damped oscillation means an oscillation that fades away with time while Forced oscillations occur when an oscillating system is driven by a periodic force that is external to the oscillating system.

Explanation:

Damping is the reduction in amplitude (energy loss from the system) due to overcomings of external forces like friction or air resistance and other resistive forces. ... When a body oscillates by being influenced by an external periodic force, it is called forced oscillation.
