The lowest and highest wavelengths of this part of the electromagnetic spectrum are:
\lambda_1 = 200 nm=200 \cdot 10^{-9} m
\lambda_2 = 400 nm=400 \cdot 10^{-9} m

The frequency and the wavelenght of an electromagnetic wave are related by
f= \frac{c}{\lambda}
where c is the speed of light and f the frequency. By using this equation, we can find the frequencies that corresponds to the lowest and highest wavelengths of this part of the spectrum:
f_1 =  \frac{c}{\lambda_1}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{200 \cdot 10^{-9} m}=1.5 \cdot 10^{15}Hz
f_2 =  \frac{c}{\lambda_2}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{400 \cdot 10^{-9} m}=7.5 \cdot 10^{14}Hz

So, the highest frequency associated with this part of the spectrum is the one corresponding to the lowest wavelength:
f_1 = 1.5 \cdot 10^{15}Hz

Una pelota de tenis de 100 g de masa lleva una rapidez de 20 m/s. Al ser golpeada por una raqueta, se mueve en sentido contrario
REY [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

El impulso aplicado a la pelota produce una variación en su momento lineal.

J = m (V -Vo)

Conviene elegir positivo el sentido de la velocidad final.

J = 0,100 kg [40 - (- 20)] m/s = 6 kg m/s
