The light from the sun is reflected by the moon, we see the part of the moon that the sun shines on.The change in the phases are created from the rotation of the moon around earth.We see a full moon when the sun is opposite of the moon. The side the sun shines on the moon is what we see.

What is the frequency of a radio wave with an energy of 3.686 × 10−24 j/photon?answer in units of hz?

Makovka662 [10]

To solve this problem, we have to use the formula:

E = h f

where E is total energy, h is Plancks constant 6.626x10^-34 J s, f is frequency

f = E / h

f = 3.686 × 10−24 J / (6.626x10^-34 J s)

A marble slides without friction in a vertical loop around the inside of a smooth, 28.6 cm diameter horizontal pipe. The marble'

Leviafan [203]

Answer:3.49 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Speed of marble at Bottom $v=4.22 m/s$

Diameter of loop $d=28.6 cm$

As Energy is conserved therefore Energy at top is equal to energy at bottom

$E_T=E_B$

$\frac{mv^2}{2}+mgh=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}$ ,where $v_0$ is the velocity at bottom

$\frac{v^2}{2}+gh=\frac{v_0^2}{2}$

$v_0^2=v^2+2gh$

$v^2=v_0^2-2gh$

$v=\sqrt{v_0^2-2gh}$

$v=\sqrt{4.22^2-2\times 9.8\times 0.286}$

$v=\sqrt{17.8084-5.6056}$

$v=3.49 m/s$

One observer stands on a train moving at a constant speed, and one observer stands at rest on the ground. The person on the trai

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Option D.

Value cannot be calculated without knowing the speed of the train

Explanation:

The speed of the beam can only be calculated accurately when the speed of the train is put into consideration. Based of the theory of relativity, the observer is on the ground, and the train is moving with the beam of light inside it. This causes a variation in the reference frames when making judgements of the speed of the beam. The speed of the beam will be more accurate if the observer is moving at the same sped of the train, or the train is stationary.

To get the correct answer, we have to subtract the speed of the train from the speed calculated.
