Answer:

f=3.54 × 1010 Hz

Explanation:

Use the relationship  f=vλ  to solve for frequency f. Substituting the known quantities yields:

 

λ=8.45  mm = 8.45 ×10-3 mf=vλf=2.99 × 108 m/s8.45 ×10-3  mf=3.538×1010  

 

answer rounded off to 3 significant digits is

 

f=3.54 × 1010 Hz

Answer:

The frequency of infrared wave is 35.385 GHz

Explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength of infrared light = 8.45 mm = 8.45 x 10^{-3} m

Velocity of infrared light = 2.99 x 10^{8} m/s

To find: frequency of the infrared wave = ?

We know that the wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional and the formula to derive frequency with velocity and wavelength is:

c = μλ, where

c is velocity of light

μ is frequency of light

λ is wavelength of light

Hence the frequency of light  μ = c/λ

                                                     = \frac{2.99 x 10^{8} m/s }{8.45 x 10^{-3}m }

                                                     = \frac{299}{8.45} x 10^{9} s^{-1}

                                                     =  35.385  x  10^{9} Hz   (since 1 s^{-1} = 1 Hz)

                                                     = 35.385 GHz

insens350 [35]

Answer:

People have been aware of magnets and magnetism for thousands of years. The earliest records date back to ancient times, particularly in the region of Asia Minor called Magnesia-the name of this region is the source of words like magnet. Magnetic rocks found in Magnesia, which is now part of western Turkey, stimulated interest during ancient times. When humans first discovered magnetic rocks, they likely found that certain parts of these rocks attracted bits of iron or other magnetic rocks more strongly than other parts. These areas are called the poles of a magnet. A magnetic pole is the part of a magnet that exerts the strongest force on other magnets or magnetic material, such as iron. For example, the poles of the bar magnet shown in Figure 20.2 are where the paper clips are concentrated.

Applying the Law of Conservation of Energy. If a car was released down the track from a height what happens to the potential ene
erastova [34]

Answer:

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created or destroyed,  although it can be changed from one form to another.    KE + PE = constant. A simple example involves a stationary car at the top of a hill.  As the car coasts down the hill, it moves faster and so it’s kinetic energy increases and it’s potential energy decreases.  On the way back up the hill, the car converts kinetic energy to potential energy.  In the absence of friction, the car should end up at the same height as it started.

This law had to be combined with the law of conservation of mass when it was determined that mass can be inter-converted with energy.

One can also imagine the energy transformation in a pendulum.  When the ball is at the top of its swing, all of the pendulum’s energy is potential energy.   When the ball is at the bottom of its swing, all of the pendulum’s energy is kinetic energy.   The total energy of the ball stays the same but is continuously exchanged between kinetic and potential forms

If the magnetic flux through a loop increases according to the relation; where , is in milliweber (mWb) and t is in seconds. Cal
Alekssandra [29.7K]

The magnitude of e.m.f induced in the loop when t = 2 s is 31 Volts.

<h3>emf induced in the loop</h3>

The magnitude of e.m.f induced in the loop is calculated as follows;

emf = dФ/dt

Ф = 6t² + 7t

dФ/dt = 12t + 7

at t = 2 seconds

emf = dФ/dt = 12(2) + 7 = 31 V

Thus,  the magnitude of e.m.f induced in the loop when t = 2 s is 31 Volts.
