Calculate the wavelength λ1 for gamma rays of frequency f1 = 7.20×1021 hz .

bagirrra123 [75]

The relationship between wavelength $\lambda$ , frequency f and speed of light c for an electromagnetic wave is
$\lambda= \frac{c}{f}$
Using the data of the problem, we find
$\lambda= \frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s }{7.20 \cdot 10^{21} Hz}=4.17 \cdot 10^{-14} m$

What is the frictional force between a box and the floor it is being pulled across if, the kinetic coefficient of friction is 0.

Artyom0805 [142]

If the pulling is done parallel to the floor with constant velocity, then the box is in equilibrium. In particular, the weight and normal force cancel, so that

<em>n</em> = 38 N

The friction force is proportional to the normal force by a factor of 0.27, so that

<em>f</em> = 0.27 (38 N) ≈ 10.3 N

and so the answer is D.

What is not an example of Absorption? (Physics)

amm1812

When a light wave strikes an object, it can be absorbed, reflected, or refracted by the object. All objects have a degree of reflection and absorption. ... In the natural world, light can also be transmitted by an object. That is, light can pass through an object with no effect (an x-ray, for example).

Calculate the change in length of a Pyrex glass dish (Coefficient of linear expansion for Pyrex is 3 * 10-6 / oC) that is 0.25 m

DIA [1.3K]

9* $10^{-5}$ m

Explanation:

Step 1:

We are given the initial length of the Pyrex glass dish at a particular temperature and need to calculate the change in the length when the temperature changes by 120° C. The coefficient of linear expansion of Pyrex is provided.

Step 2:

Change in length = Coefficient of linear expansion * Change in temperature * Initial length

Step 3:

Coefficient of linear expansion = 3* $10^{-6}$ /°C

Change in temperature = 120°C = 120 K

Initial length = 0.25 m

Step 4:

Change in length = 3* $10^{-6}$ * 120 * 0.25 = 9* $10^{-5}$ m
