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

S_A_V [24]3 years ago

<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 pulley lifts a 72-N load with a force of 24-N. The input distance is 2m and the output distance is 0.5m. What is the efficienc
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work done on the lever ( input energy ) = force applied x input distance

= 24 N x 2m = 48 J

Work done by the lever ( output energy ) = load x output distance

= 72 N x 0.5m = 36 J

efficiency = output energy / input energy

= 36 J  / 48 J

= 3 / 4 = .75

In percentage terms efficiency = 75 % .

Explain two reasons why astronomers are continually building larger and larger telescopes. Explain two reasons why astronomers a
Sergio [31]

Answer:

* Larger mirrors collect more light and therefore fainter and more distant objects can have enough intensity to be detected

* arger mirrors decreases the angle of dispersion giving a better resolution of the bodies

Explanation:

Refracting telescopes get bigger every day for two main reasons.

* Larger mirrors collect more light and therefore fainter and more distant objects can have enough intensity to be detected

* the diffraction process for circular apertures is given by

               θ = 1.22 λ / D

where d is the diameter of the mirror, therefore having larger mirrors decreases the angle of dispersion giving a better resolution of the bodies

barxatty [35]

Answer:

The answer is "(1.265 \pm 0.010) \ s \ and \ 0.709 \%"

Explanation:

In point i:

T_{theo}= 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}

        =2\pi\sqrt{\frac{0.397}{9.8}}\\\\= 1.265 \ s

If  error in the theoretical time period :

\frac{\Delta T_{theo}}{T_theo} = \frac{1}{2}  \frac{\Delta l }{l}\\\\\Delta T_{theo} = 1.265 \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{0.006}{0.397}

           = 0.010 \ s

 T_{theo} = (1.265 \pm 0.010) \ s

In point ii:

\% \ difference = \frac{|T_{exp} -T_{theo}|}{\frac{T_{exp}+T_{theo}}{2}} \times 100

<h3>                     = \frac{1.274 -1.265}{\frac{1.274+1.265}{2}} \times 100\\\\=0.709 \%</h3>
