Infrared waves from the sun are what make our skin feel warm on a sunny day. If an infrared wave has a frequency of 3.0 x 1012 H

Answer:

The wavelength of the infrared wave is <u>0.0001 m</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of an infrared wave is, f=3.0\times 10^{12}\ Hz

We know that, infrared waves are electromagnetic waves. All electromagnetic waves travel with the same speed and their magnitude is equal to the speed of light in air.

So, speed of infrared waves coming from the Sun travels with the speed of light and thus its magnitude is given as:

v=c=3.0\times 10^8\ m/s

Where, 'v' is the speed of infrared waves and 'c' is the speed of light.

Now, we have a formula for the speed of any wave and is given as:

v=f\lambda

Where, \lambda \to \textrm{Wavelength of infrared wave}

Now, rewriting the above formula in terms of wavelength, \lambda, we get:

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

Now, plug in 3.0\times 10^8 for 'v', 3.0\times 10^{12} for 'f' and solve for  \lambda. This gives,

\lambda=\frac{3.0\times 10^8}{3.0\times 10^{12}}\\\\\lambda=0.0001\ m

Therefore, the wavelength of the infrared wave is 0.0001 m.

A hockey puck has a mass of 0.107 kg and is at rest. A hockey player makes a shot, exerting a constant force of 28.0 N on the pu
gregori [183]

Answer:

The speed does it head toward the goal = 41.87 \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Mass = 0.107 kg

Initial velocity ( u ) = 0

Force (F) = 28 N

Time = 0.16 sec

From newton's second law,  Force  = mass × acceleration

⇒  F = m × a

⇒  28 = 0.107 × a

⇒  a = 261.7 \frac{m}{s^{2} } --------- (1)

This is the value of acceleration.

Final speed of the mass is calculated by the equation V = U + at

⇒ U = 0 because mass in in rest position at start.

⇒ V = a t

Put the values of acceleration and time in above formula we get

⇒ V = 261.7 × 0.16

⇒ V = 41.87 \frac{m}{s}

Therefore the speed does it head toward the goal = 41.87 \frac{m}{s}
