How do you know the speed of an electromagnetic wave in a vacuum?

Physics

The speed of electromagnetic waves in a vacuum is the same as the speed of light. It can be measured by finding the frequency and wavelength of two different waves, and then by that correlation, the speed of the waveform.
Hope this helps you (:

A 782.10 kg car is brought from 7.60 m/s to 3.61 m/s over a time period of 4.23 seconds. What is the average force the car exper
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

–735.17 N

The negative sign indicate that the force is acting in opposition direction to the car.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) of car = 782.10 kg

Initial velocity (u) = 7.60 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 3.61 m/s

Time (t) = 4.23 s

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the acceleration of the car. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 7.60 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 3.61 m/s

Time (t) = 4.23 s

Acceleration (a) =?

a = (v – u) / t

a = (3.61 – 7.60) / 4.23

a = –3.99 / 4.23

a = –0.94 m/s²

Finally, we shall determine the force experienced by the car as shown below:

Mass (m) of car = 782.10 kg

Acceleration (a) = –0.94 m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = ma

F = 782.10 × –0.94

F = –735.17 N

The negative sign indicate that the force is acting in opposition direction to the car.

1. Why does Earth's moon have no atmosphere
atroni [7]
1. Earth's moon has no atmosphere because the moon's gravity is too weak to hold onto gas molecules.
2. On the moon, maria are low flat plains. The word maria comes from the Latin word mare, which means sea.

20. Using the picture, how many neutrons does lithium have?
Igoryamba

Answer:

No. of Neutrons = 3

Explanation:

The atomic number of Lithium is given as 3 in the symbol while the mass number is given as 5.941 which is approximately equal to 6.

Mass Number = No. of Protons + No. of Neutrons = 6

Atomic Number = Number of Electrons = No. of Protons = 3

Therefore,

Mass Number - Atomic Number = (No. of Protons + No. of Neutrons) - No. of Protons

Mass Number - Atomic Number = No. of Neutrons

No. of Neutrons = 6 - 3

<u>No. of Neutrons = 3 </u>

What is the wavelength in nm of a light whose first order bright band forms a diffraction angle of 30 degrees, and the diffracti
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The wavelength is 3500 nm.

Explanation:

d= \frac{1}{700 lines per mm} = 0.007mm = 7000 nm

n= 1

θ= 30°

λ= unknown

Solution:

d sinθ = nλ

λ = \frac{7000 nm sin 30}{1}

λ = 3500 nm
