Answer:

Explanation:

a ) AM radio band (540–1600 kHz)

frequency = 540 kHz = 540 x 10³ Hz

wave length = velocity of light / frequency

= 3 x 10⁸ / 540 x 10³

= 555.55 m

frequency = 1600 kHz = 1600 x 10³ Hz

wave length = velocity of light / frequency

= 3 x 10⁸ / 1600 x 10³

= 187.5  m

maximum wavelength  =   555.55 m

minimum wavelength =  187.5 m

b )

AM radio band (88 - 108 MHz)

frequency = 88 MHz = 88 x 10⁶ Hz

wave length = velocity of light / frequency

= 3 x 10⁸ / 88 x 10⁶

= 3.41 m

frequency = 108 MHz = 108 x 10⁶ Hz

wave length = velocity of light / frequency

= 3 x 10⁸ / 108 x 10⁶

= 2.78  m

maximum wavelength  =   3.41 m

minimum wavelength =  2.78 m

The speed of light is 3 x 108 m/s (300,000,000 m/s). A light wave has a wavelength of 400 nm (0.0000004 m). What is the frequenc
kirill115 [55]

Explanation:

velocity = wavelength × frequency

3×10⁸ = 400/10⁹ × frequency

frequency = 3 × 10¹⁵ /400

frequency = 75×10¹¹Hz

A seesaw pivots as shown in below. What is the net torque about the pivot point?
rodikova [14]

Answer:

2.3 Nm clockwise

Explanation:

Take counterclockwise to be positive and clockwise to be negative.

∑τ = (3 N) (2.5 m) − (7 N) (1.4 m)

∑τ = 7.5 Nm − 9.8 Nm

∑τ = -2.3 Nm

The net torque is 2.3 Nm clockwise.

A scientific theory is_____.
natta225 [31]

Answer:

B. A well-tested explanation for a widely accepted hypothesis

Explanation:

This is true about a scientific theory going by the fact of it being a well tested explanation. For example, in one of the Newtons law of motion which he stated to be<em> "To every action, there is equal and opposite reaction", </em><em>the hypothesis has been known till he was able to offer a well tested explanations with calculations showing that, it was actually true.</em>
