Marianna [84]4 years ago

Using the formula:
v = fλ, where v is the speed of the wave, f is its frequency and λ is its wavelength.
The speed of ultraviolet light is equal to that of light. Therefore:
f = v/λ
f = 3 x 10⁸ / 300 x 10⁻⁹
f = 1 x 10¹⁵ Herz

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Total momentum before collision

P1 =.4 * 3.5 = 1.4       ignoring units here

Total momentum after collision

P2 = .6 * V - .4 * .7 = .6 V - .28

.6 V = 1.4 + .28   momentum before = momentum after

V = 2.8 cm/sec

In 5 sec V moves 2.8 cm/sec * 5 sec = 14 cm

A 100 kg cart is moving at 3 m/s. Calculate the cart’s kinetic energy.
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

450

Explanation:

Given,

Mass= 100kg

Velocity= 3 m/s

Kinetic Energy= ?

Kinetic Energy= 1/2 mv^2

= 1/2× 100× 3^2

= 1/2× 900

= 450.

A 0.500 H inductor is connected in series with a 93 Ω resistor and an ac source. The voltage across the inductor is V = −(11.0V)
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

205 V

V_{R} = 2.05 V

Explanation:

L = Inductance in Henries, (H)  = 0.500 H

resistor is of 93 Ω so R = 93 Ω

The voltage across the inductor is

V_{L} = - IwLsin(wt)

w = 500 rad/s

IwL = 11.0 V

Current:

I = 11.0 V / wL

 = 11.0 V / 500 rad/s (0.500 H)

 = 11.0 / 250

I = 0.044 A

Now

V_{R} = IR

    = (0.044 A) (93 Ω)

V_{R} = 4.092 V

Deriving formula for voltage across the resistor

The derivative of sin is cos

V_{R} = V_{R} cos (wt)

Putting V_{R} = 4.092 V and w = 500 rad/s

V_{R} = V_{R} cos (wt)

    = (4.092 V) (cos(500 rad/s )t)

So the voltage across the resistor at 2.09 x 10-3 s is which means

t = 2.09 x 10⁻³

V_{R} = (4.092 V) (cos (500 rads/s)(2.09 x 10⁻³s))

    =  (4.092 V) (cos (500 rads/s)(0.00209))

    = (4.092 V) (cos(1.045))

    = (4.092 V)(0.501902)

    = 2.053783

V_{R} = 2.05 V
