<u>Answer:</u>

Frequency of orange light = $5 \times 10^{14}$ Hz

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given the wavelength of the orange light and we are to find the value of its frequency.

Wavelength of orange light = $6.0 \times 10^{-7} m$

We know that:

Speed of light = Frequency of orange light × Wavelength of orange light

Substituting the values in the above formula:

$3 \times 10^8$ = Frequency of orange light × $6.0\times10^{-7}$

Frequency of orange light = $\frac{3 \times 10^8}{6\times10^{-7}} =5 \times 10^{14}$ Hz

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

C. At the instant the ball reaches its highest point.

Explanation:

When a body is thrown up, it tends to come down due to the influence of gravitational force acting on the body. The body will be momentarily at rest at its maximum point before falling. At this maximum point, the velocity of the body is zero and since force acting on a body is product of the mass and its acceleration, the force acting on the body at that point will be "zero"

Remember, F = ma = m(v/t)

Since v = 0 at maximum height

F = m(0/t)

F = 0N

This shows that the force acting on the body is zero at the maximum height.

When is the magnitude of the acceleration of a mass on a spring at its maximum value?

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

A. when the mass has a speed of zero

Explanation:

In mass-spring system, the velocity and the acceleration are in anti-phase, which means that when one of the two quantities is maximum, the other one is zero, and vice-versa.

In fact:

- When the displacement of the spring is zero (x=0), the velocity is maximum, due to conservation of energy. In fact, as the displacement is zero, the elastic potential energy of the system (given by $\frac{1}{2}kx^2$ ) is zero, therefore the kinetic energy (given by $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ ) must be maximum, and so the velocity (v) is also maximum. On the cotnrary, acceleration (a) is directly proportional to the restoring force of the spring, given by

$F=-kx$

so we see that when x=0, then the force is zero: F=0, and so the acceleration is zero as well.

Based on this, the correct answer is

A. when the mass has a speed of zero

Tasya [4]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.5 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

$density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\$
