The distance between two successive peaks on adjacent waves is its

Physics
1 answer:
yKpoI14uk [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Wavelength

Explanation:

Wavelength is the distance between two corresponding consecutive phases of a waveform. It is usually represented by λ in the mathematical expressions.

A continuous propagating wave repeats its wavelength over the distance.

A wave has crest and trough with respect to time and space.

Wave is defined as a disturbance of any parameter repeated in a cyclic manner over the given time.

What is the frequency of a photon of emr with a wavelength of 2.55x10-3m?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

f = 1.18 x 10¹¹ Hz

Explanation:

The equation used to find frequency is:

f = c / w

In this form, "f" represents the frequency (Hz), "c" represents the speed of light (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s), and "w" represents the wavelength (m).

Since you have been given the value of the constant (c) and wavelength, you can substitute these values into the equation to find frequency.

f = c / w                                                      <---- Formula

f = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / w                                 <---- Plug 3.0 x 10⁸ in "c"

f = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (2.55 x 10⁻³ m)            <---- Plug 2.55 x 10⁻³ in "w"

f = 1.18 x 10¹¹ Hz                                         <---- Divide

5. Susan exerted 400 newtons of force while pushing on a huge boulder. The boulder moved 0 meters. Calculate work.
Stells [14]

Answer:

0 J

Explanation:

Work is the product of force and distance in the direction of force.

The formula is ; Work = Force * Distance

Given that :

Force = 400 N

Distance = 0 meters

Work = 400 * 0 = 0 J

No work was done because the boulder did not move.

What happens to a satellite that slows down?
Bess [88]

Two things can happen to <u>old satellites</u>: For the closer satellites, engineers will use its last bit of fuel to slow it down so it will fall out of orbit and burn up in the atmosphere. Further satellites are instead sent even farther away from Earth.
