Answer:

wavelength

Explanation:

An electromagnetic waves is produced due to interaction of oscillating electric and magnetic field when they interacts perpendicular to each other. For example, Gamma rays, X rays , ultraviolet rays, visible radiations, infrared rays, micro waves, radio waves.

All the electromagnetic waves have velocity equal to velocity of light.

If the frequency of electromagnetic wave is unknown then we find the wavelength of wave. the formula used is

Wave speed = wavelength x frequency

Learning Goal: To be able to calculate work done by a constant force directed at different angles relative to displacement

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Woke done, W = 4156.92 Joules

Explanation:

The work done by the force can be calculated as :

$W=F\times s$

$W=Fs\ cos\theta$

$\theta$ is the angle between force and the displacement

It is assumed to find the work done for the given parameters i.e.

Force, F = 30 N

Distance travelled, s = 160 m

Angle between force and displacement, $\theta=30$

Work done is given by :

$W=Fs\ cos\theta$

$W=30\times 160\ cos(30)$

W = 4156.92 Joules

So, the work done by the object is 4156.92 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

Copernicus and other astronomers before him thought that celestial bodies followed a _____ orbital path.

murzikaleks [220]

The correct answer is circular. Copernicus and other astronomers before him thought that celestial bodies followed a circular orbital path. Copernicus was a Polish astronomer that concluded that the sun is at rest near the center of the universe and the earth is revolving around it annually. This theory is called heliocentric.

A constant force is applied to an object, causing the object to accelerate at 10 m/s^2. What will the acceleration be if: a) The

Liula [17]

What you need to know is that the force is

F=ma

The force is the product of mass and acceleration

this means that the acceleration is

a=F/m

a) The force is halved?
this means that f will be $\frac{F}{2}$ now:

a= $\frac{F}{2m}$

So the accelaration will also he halved (it's the original acceleratation divided by 2)

b) The object's mass is halved?
a= $\frac{F}{m/2}$ =a= $\frac{F2}{m}$

which is the original acceleration times two!! so it will double

c) The force and the object's mass are both halved?
now we have

a= $\frac{F/2}{m/2}$ =a= $\frac{2F}{2m}$ =a= $\frac{F}{m}$

so they will cancel each other out and the acceleration will stay the same!

When a golf club hits a 0.0459 kg ball at rest, it exerts a 2380 N force for 0.00100 s. What is the speed of the ball afterwards

aksik [14]

Answer:

51.85m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ball = 0.0459kg

Force = 2380N

Time taken = 0.001s

Unknown:

Speed of the ball afterwards = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use Newton's second law of motion:

F = m x $\frac{v - u}{t}$

F is the force

m is the mass

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

2380 = 0.0459 x $\frac{v- 0}{0.001}$

0.0459v = 2.38

v = 51.85m/s
