Electromagnetic radiation behaves both as particles (called photons) and as waves. Wavelength (λ) and frequency (ν) are related

according to the equation c=λ×ν where c is the speed of light (3.00×108 m/s). The energy (E in joules) contained in one quantum of electromagnetic radiation is described by the equation E=h×ν where h is Planck's constant (6.626×10−34 J⋅s). Note that frequency has units of inverse seconds (s−1), which are more commonly expressed as hertz (Hz). A microwave oven operates at 2.20 GHz . What is the wavelength of the radiation produced by this appliance?

<h2>Answer: 136.363 m</h2>

Explanation:

We can find the wavelength of the radiation produced by the microwave oven by using the following given equation:

c=\lambda.\nu   (1)

Clearing \lambda :

\lambda=\frac{c}{\nu}   (2)

Knowing \nu=2.20 GHz=2.20(10)^{6}Hz=2.20(10)^{6}s^{-1}

\lambda=\frac{3(10)^{8}m/s}{2.20(10)^{6}s^{-1}}   (3)

\lambda=136.363m This is the wavelength of the radiation produced by the microwave

A monatomic gas is adiabatically compressed to 0.250 of its initial volume. Do each of the following quantities change?
Len [333]

Answer:

Given that

V2/V1= 0.25

And we know that in adiabatic process

TV^န-1= constant

So

T1/T2=( V1 /V2)^ န-1

So = ( 1/0.25)^ 0.66= 2.5

Also PV^န= constant

So P1/P2= (V2/V1)^န

= (1/0.25)^1.66 = 9.98

A. RMS speed is

Vrms= √ 3RT/M

But this is also

Vrms 2/Vrms1= (√T2/T1)

Vrms2=√2.5= 1.6vrms1

B.

Lambda=V/4π√2πr²N

So

Lambda 2/lambda 1= V2/V1 = 0.25

So the mean free path can be inferred to be 0.25 times the first mean free path

C. Using

Eth= 3/2KT

So Eth2/Eth1= T2/T1

So

Eth2= 2.5Eth1

D.

Using CV= 3/2R

Cvf= Cvi

So molar specific heat constant does not change

1. An express train, traveling at 36 m/s, is accidentally sidetracked onto a local train track. The express engineer spots a loc
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

(i) 12 seconds

(ii) 216 meters from the initial position

(iii) 132 meters from the initial position

(iv) No

Explanation:

Speed of express train =36 m/s

Speed of local train =11 m/s

The initial distance between the local train and passenger train =100 m.

Due to the application of breaks, the express train slows at the rare of 3.0 m/s^2.

So, the acceleration of the express train, a=-3 m/s^2.

(i) Let t be the time the express train takes to stop.

From the equation of motion,

v=u+at

where, v: final velocity, u: initial velocity, a: constant acceleration, t: time taken to change the speed from u to v.

In this case, v=0, u=36 m/s, a=-3 m/s^2

So, 0=36+(-3)t

\Rightarrow t= 36/3=12 seconds.

(ii) To compute the distance traveled, s, till the express train stops, using

v^2=u^2+2as

\Rightarrow 0^2=36^2+2(-3)s

\Rightarrow s=\frac{36\times36}{6}

\Rightarrow s=216 meters.

(iii) The local train is moving at a speed of 11 m/s

So, in 12 seconds, the distance, d, traveled by the local train

d= 11x12=132 meters [as distance= speed x time]

(iv) Let 0 be the reference position which is the initial position of the express train.

So, at the initial time, the position of the local train is at 100m.

After 12 seconds:

The position of the express train is at 216 m [using part (ii)]

and the position of the local train is at 100+132=232m  [using part (iii)].

So, the local train is still ahead of the express train, hence the trains didn't collide.

the first law of thermodynamics states that (triangle)E= Q-W. is this also a statement of the principle of conservation energy
Verdich [7]
Yes, the first law of thermodynamics was created using the law of conservation of energy that is applied in a thermodynamic systems.the first law of thermodynamics is the change in internal energy of an isolated system is equal to the amount of heat (Q) added to the system minus the work (w) done by the system to the surroundings . while the law of conservation of energy states that in an isolated system that energy is constant, and energy can change its form but it cannot be created or destroyed.
