Answer:

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

Explanation:

We are going to use the formula  v=fλ

Where v= velocity of radio waves

f= frequency

λ= wavelength of wave

  • radio waves are electromagnetic waves and as such they have the speed of light which is 3*10^{8}m/s.
  • also when a wave travels from one medium to another, the wavelength changes while the frequency remains the same.
  • calculating for the frequency of the wave in air also gives us the frequency in the window glass.

f=\frac{v}{λ}

v=3*10^{8}m/s.

λ=36.5 cm = 36.5/100= 0.365m

f=\frac{3*10^{8}m/s.}{0.365m}

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The explosive force experienced by the shell inside the barrel is 23437500 newtons.

Explanation:

Let suppose that shells are not experiencing any effect from non-conservative forces (i.e. friction, air viscosity) and changes in gravitational potential energy are negligible. The explosive force experienced by the shell inside the barrel can be estimated by Work-Energy Theorem, represented by the following formula:

F\cdot \Delta s = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot (v_{f}^{2}-v_{o}^{2}) (1)

Where:

F - Explosive force, measured in newtons.

\Delta s - Barrel length, measured in meters.

m - Mass of the shell, measured in kilograms.

v_{o}, v_{f} - Initial and final speeds of the shell, measured in meters per second.

If we know that m = 1250\,kg, v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, v_{f} = 750\,\frac{m}{s} and \Delta s = 15\,m, then the explosive force experienced by the shell inside the barrel is:

F = \frac{m\cdot (v_{f}^{2}-v_{o}^{2})}{2\cdot \Delta s}

F = \frac{(1250\,kg)\cdot \left[\left(750\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}\right]}{2\cdot (15\,m)}

F = 23437500\,N

The explosive force experienced by the shell inside the barrel is 23437500 newtons.

Mass×acceleration of a triangle =force​
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The force acting on a body is always equal to the product of the mass of the body and its acceleration.

Explanation:

The force of a body is defined as the product of mass and acceleration of the body.

According to Newton's second law, wherever there is a change in momentum of the body for an interval of time, there is a force acting on it.

                         F = (mv - mu) / t

                             = m (v -u) /t

                              = m a

Where,

                                 (v - u)/t - is the change in velocity of the body in the interval of time. It is equal to the acceleration of the body.

Hence, the equation for the force for any body becomes, F = m x a

Would you be more concerned if something you consider precious went through a
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Explanation:

A chemical change.

Usually those are irreversible. Or they may be reversible, but the form they take may leave your object not the same as they started out.

A physical change might be just as deadly. If the object melted like a chocolate Easter Bunny then the object would be irreversible as well. Take a better example.

Suppose you are talking about a Gold Coin. If you heated it so it melted, the gold would retain its value, but the fact that it is a coin and valuable as such, means that it has lost that part of its value.

I really don't know. My instincts tell me that the chemical change is more dangerous, but I can't rule out the other choice..
