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>

finlep [7]
Answer. 30 minutes
Explanation. If he walks 70 m in one minute how long will it take him to walk 2,100 m. Well, this is a simple division problem (you could also use a ratio box).
2100/70= 30. Hope this helps, let me know if it’s correct so others can use it :)
Good luck.

Why do radio waves have the lowest frequency of all the waves on the electromagnetic spectrum?
lara [203]

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are the waves which are created as the result of the electrical waves which are perpendicular to each other and also perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

Electromagnetic spectrum is range of the frequencies and their respective wavelengths of the various type of the electromagnetic radiation.

In order of the increasing frequency and the photon energy and the decreasing wavelength the spectrum are:  

radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays.

The energy of the radio waves photons is the lowest of all the other waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Also, E={h\times \nu}

Where,  

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

Thus, energy is directly proportional to the frequency. The radio waves have the lowest frequency.

Calculate the potential V(r) for r&gt;rb. (Hint: The net potential is the sum of the potentials due to the individual spheres.)
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The potential for r > rb is equal to zero.

Explanation:

For r > rb, the potential is:

V=\frac{Kq}{r}

Then, the net potential is:

V_{(r)} =\frac{K(+\epsilon )}{r} +\frac{K(-\epsilon )}{r}

K=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _{o}  }

V_{(r)} =\frac{K(+\epsilon )}{r} -\frac{K(\epsilon )}{r}\\V_{(r)}=0

A heat pump receives heat from a lake that has an average winter time temperature of 6o C and supplies heat into a house having
Natalija [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

60000 kJ / h = 60000 x 1000 / (60 x 60 )

= 16667 J /s

a)

\frac{Q_H}{W} =\frac{T_H}{T_H-T_C}

where Q_H and W are heat supplied and heat given from  outside source .

Here Q_H = 16667 J/s

\frac{T_H}{T_H-T_C}=\frac{298}{298-279}

= 15.684

Q_H = 16667 J/s

16667 / W = 15.684

W= minimum power supplied  = 1062.7 W.

b )

If  T_C=283K

\frac{T_H}{T_H-T_C}=\frac{298}{298-283}

=19.87

\frac{Q_H}{W} = 19.87

W=\frac{Q_H}{19.87}

W=\frac{16667}{19.87}

= 838.8 W .
