What is the frequency of radiation whose wavelength is 2.40 x 10-5 cm?

Physics
1 answer:
S_A_V [24]3 years ago
7 0
<span>To begin, the formula for finding frequency when wavelength is known is "f = c / w" when c is the constant velocity (3 * 10^8 m/s). To convert the wavelength into a common form (m/s), it will have to be multiplied by 10^-2. This leaves the equation as "f = 3.0 * 10^8 / (2.4 * 10^-5 * 10^-2), or 2.4 * 10^-7. This gives 1.25 * 10^15 m/s as the frequency.</span>

A 4.0 m length of gold wire is connected to a 1.5 V battery, and a current of 4.0 mA flows through it. What is the diameter of t
sladkih [1.3K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of gold wire, l = 4 m

Voltage of battery, V = 1.5 V

Current, I = 4 mA

The resistivity of gold, \rho=2.44\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m

Resistance in terms of resistivity is given by :

R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}

Also, V = IR

So,

\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}

A is area of wire,

\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{\pi r^2}, r is radius, r = d/2 (diameter=d)

\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{\pi (d/2)^2}\\\\\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{4\rho l}{\pi d^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\rho l I}{V\pi}} \\\\d=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\times 2.44\times 10^{-8}\times 4\times 4\times 10^{-3}}{1.5\times \pi}} \\\\d=18.2\ \mu m

Out of four option, near option is (C) 17 μm.

What is the most likely place for a star to begin to form?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Stars are born within the clouds of dust and scattered throughout most galaxies. Deep within these clouds, turbulence creates knots with enough mass to cause the gas and dust to collapse under its own gravitational force.

A​ heavy-duty shock absorber is compressed 4 cm from its equilibrium position by a mass of 700nbspkg. How much work is required
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

A mass of 700 kg will exert a force of

700 x 9.8

= 6860 N.

Amount of compression x = 4 cm

= 4 x 10⁻² m

Force constant K = force of compression / compression

= 6860 / 4 x 10⁻²

= 1715 x 10² Nm⁻¹.

Let us take compression of r at any moment

Restoring force by spring

= k r

Force required to compress = kr

Let it is compressed  by small length dr during which force will remain constant.

Work done

dW =  Force x displacement

= -kr -dr

= kr dr

Work done to compress by length d

for it r ranges from 0 to -d

Integrating on both sides

W  = \int\limits^{-4}_0 {kr} \, dr

= [ kr²/2]₀^-4

= 1/2 kX16X10⁻⁴

= .5 x 1715 x 10² x 16 x 10⁻⁴

= 137.20 J

Vapor pressure<span> or equilibrium </span>vapor pressure<span> is defined as the </span>pressure<span> exerted by a </span>vapor<span> in thermodynamic equilibrium with its condensed phases at a certain temperature. It is independent with atmospheric pressure since it does not change by changing the atmospheric pressure only. </span>

Objects 1 and 2
sattari [20]

Answer:

12 units

Explanation:

Original F = C q1q2/r^2    now change the parameters

  New F = C  1/3 q1  2 q2  / (2r)^2

              =  2/12  C q1q2/r^2    <=======the new force is 1/6 of original

1/6 * 72 = 12 units
