7 0

Answer:

400 m

Explanation:

The swimmer swims 50 meters to one end of the pool but has to swim back therefore you double 50 which would be 100 meters. Then you have to multiply 100 by 4 since the swimmer did it 4 times.

At a distance D from a very long (essentially infinite) uniform line of charge, the electric field strength is 1000 N/C. At what

Alla [95]

Answer:

The correct option is (a).

Explanation:

We know that, the E is inversely proportional to the distance as follows :

$E=\dfrac{k}{d^2}$

We can write it as follows :

$\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=(\dfrac{d_2}{d_1})^2$

Put all the values,

$\dfrac{1000}{2000}=(\dfrac{d_2}{d})^2\\\\\sqrt{\dfrac{1000}{2000}}=(\dfrac{d_2}{D})\\\\0.7071=\dfrac{d_2}{d}\\\\d_1=0.7071D\\\\d_1=\dfrac{D}{\sqrt2}$

So, the correct option is (a).

Assume that the polymer material has a constant refractive index of 1.5. For light of 600nm wavelength at normal incidence, what

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Minimum thickness will be 100 nm

Explanation:

We have given refractive index is n = 1.5

Wavelength of the light incidence $\lambda$ = 600 nm

We have to find the smallest thickness of the film so that there will be minimum light reflect

For minimum thickness of non reflecting film

$t=\frac{\lambda }{4n}$ , here t is thickness, $\lambda$ is wavelength and n is refractive index

Putting all values $t=\frac{600}{4\times 1.5}=100nm$

So minimum thickness will be 100 nm

The distance between a speaker and a listener is 8.0 m. Determine the frequency of the sound wave if exactly 20 waves are formed

dmitriy555 [2]

The frequency of the wave is 6800 Hz

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Wave number, n = 20

Speed of light, v = 340 m/s

Frequency, f = ?

we know:

wave number = $\frac{frequency}{speed of light}$

$20 = \frac{f}{340 m/s} \\\\f = 20 X 340 s^-^1\\\\f = 6800 Hz$

Therefore, the frequency of the wave is 6800 Hz
