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.

An object that is initially not rotating has a constant torque of 3.6 N⋅m applied to it. The object has a moment of inertia of 6
Korolek [52]

Answer:

0.6

Explanation:

Angular acceleration is equal to Net Torque divided by rotational inertia, which is the rotational equivalent to Newton’s 2nd Law.  Therefore, angular acceleration is equal to 3.6/6 which is 0.6. Hope this helped!

The iron nail’s mass is 16 grams and its temperature drops 650 C when dropped into the water. How much heat energy did the iron
Mice21 [21]

The heat energy transferred by the iron nail is 4680 J

Explanation:

The thermal energy transferred by a substance to another substance is given by the equation

Q=mC\Delta T

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

\Delta T is its change in temperature

For the iron nail in this problem, we have:

m = 16 g

C=0.450 J/g^{\circ}C

\Delta T = -650^{\circ}C

So, the amount of heat energy given off by the nail is

Q=(16)(0.450)(-650)=-4680 J

where the negative sign indicates that the heat is given off.

An electron is released from rest in a weak electric field given by E =-2.30 x 10-10 N/Cj. After the electron has traveled a ver
Goshia [24]

Explanation:

It is given that,

An electron is released from rest in a weak electric field of, E=2.3\times 10^{-10}\ N/C

Vertical distance covered, s=1\ \mu m=10^{-6}\ m

We need to find the speed of the electron. Let its speed is v. Using third equation of motion as :

v^2-u^2=2as

v^2=2as.............(1)

Electric force is F_e and force of gravity is F_g. As both forces are acting in downward direction. So, total force is:

F=mg+qE

F=9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 9.8+1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 2.3\times 10^{-10}

F=4.57\times 10^{-29}\ N

Acceleration of the electron, a=\dfrac{F}{m}

a=\dfrac{4.57\times 10^{-29}\ N}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg}

a=50.21\ m/s^2

Put the value of a in equation (1) as :

v=\sqrt{2as}

v=\sqrt{2\times 50.21\times 10^{-6}}

v = 0.010 m/s

So, the speed of the electron is 0.010 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
