The answer is <span>A. Speed=100 million m/s and frequency = 50 million Hz.</span>

Let's calculate for each choice the wavelength using the equation:
v = f × λ   ⇒ λ = v ÷ f<span>

where:
v - the speed,
f - the frequency,
</span>λ - the wavelength.

A:
v = 100 000 000 m/s
f = 50 000 000 Hz = 50 000 000 1/s (Since f = 1/T, so units are Hz = 1/s)
⇒ λ = 100 000 000 ÷ 50 000 000 = 2 m

B:
v = 150 000 000 m/s
f = 1 500 Hz = 1 500 1/s
⇒ λ = 150 000 000 m/s ÷ 1 500 = 100 000 m

B:
v = 300 000 000 m/s
f = 100 Hz = 100 1/s
⇒ λ = 300 000 000 m/s ÷ 100 = 3 000 000 m

According to these calculations, the shortest wavelength is needed for choice A.

Problem 9: Suppose you wanted to charge an initially uncharged 85 pF capacitor through a 75 MΩ resistor to 90.0% of its final vo
Bingel [31]

Answer:

t=14.678\times 10^{-3}s

Explanation:

Given:

Capacitance, C = 85 pF = 85 × 10⁻¹² F

Resistance, R = 75 MΩ = 75×10⁶Ω

Charge in capacitor at any time 't' is given as:

Q=Q_o(1-e^{-\frac{t}{RC}})

where,

Q₀ = Maximum charge = CE

E = Initial voltage

t = time

also, Q = CV

V= Final voltage = 90% of E = 0.9E

thus, we have

C\times 0.9E=CE(1-e^{-\frac{t}{75\times 10^6\ \times\ 85\times 10^{-12}}})

or

0.9=1-e^{-\frac{t}{75\times 10^6\ \times\ 85\times 10^{-12}}}

or

e^{-\frac{t}{75\times 10^6\ \times\ 85\times 10^{-12}}}=1-0.9=0.1

taking log both sides, we get

ln(e^{-\frac{t}{75\times 10^6\ \times\ 85\times 10^{-12}}})=ln(0.1)=ln(\frac{1}{10})

or

-\frac{t}{75\times 10^6\ \times\ 85\times 10^{-12}}=-ln(10)

or

t=75\times 10^6\ \times\ 85\times 10^{-12}\times ln{10}

or

t=14.678\times 10^{-3}s

When you ride a bike and make a turn, you can feel your body trying to move in the same direction the bike was going. Which of N
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Newtons second law explains this the most because for every action their is an equal and opposite reaction. The reaction of you turning, causes the reaction of your whole body to turn with the bike.

10. How much U.S. oil demand is represented by the large oil tanker?
dexar [7]
Base on my research, as of 2004 The U.S. devours about 20 million barrels of oil a day, according to the CIA. But base on Wikipedia, it says that a normal large tanker can only carry around 2 million barrels of oil. So to supply the U.S with this oil per day, it needs 10 normal large oil tankers.
