Answer:

Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium in order to transport their energy. Mechanical waves are waves that require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another. ... Sound is a mechanical wave and cannot travel through a vacuum.

The wavelength of the yellow light from a sodium flame is 589 nm. This light originated from a sodium atom in the hot flame.
DiKsa [7]

From wave speed formula, period is 1.96 × 10^-15  seconds per cycle and the frequency is 5.1 × 10^14 Hertz

<h3>What is Frequency ?</h3>

The frequency of a wave is the number of complete revolution per second made by a vibrating body.

Given that the wavelength of the yellow light from a sodium flame is 589 nm. This light originated from a sodium atom in the hot flame.

(a) In the sodium atom from which this light originated, the period of the simple harmonic motion which was the source of this electromagnetic wave will be found by using the formula

v = λ/T

Where

  • v = speed of light = 300,000,000 m/s
  • λ = wavelength = 589 × 10^-9 m
  • T = period

Substitute all the parameters

300000000 = 589 × 10^-9/T

T = 589 × 10^-9/300000000

T = 1.96 × 10^-15  seconds per cycle.

(b) The frequency of this light wave is the reciprocal of its period. That is,

F = 1/T

F = 1/1.96 × 10^-15

F = 5.1 × 10^14 Hertz

Therefore, the period of the wave is 1.96 × 10^-15  seconds per cycle and its frequency is 5.1 × 10^14 Hertz

Calculate the power required of a 60-kg person who climbs a tree 5 meters high in 10 seconds.
Alina [70]

Answer:

Explanation:

Power = Energy/time

-Don't have energy so I'm gonna solve for it

Gravitational Potential Energy = mass x gravity x height

= 60 kg x 9.8 m/s2 x 5m

= 2940 J

Power = Energy/time

=2940 J/10 s

= 294 W

A 0.1 kg toy contains a compressed spring. when the spring is released the toy fly 0.45 m upwards from ground level before falli
trapecia [35]

The speed of the toy when it hits the ground is 2.97 m/s.

The given parameters;

  • mass of the toy, m = 0.1 kg
  • the maximum height reached by the, h = 0.45 m

The speed of the toy before it hits the ground will be maximum. Apply the principle of conservation of mechanical energy to determine the maximum speed of the toy.

P.E = K.E

mgh_{max} = \frac{1}{2} mv_{max}^2\\\\gh_{max} = \frac{1}{2} v_{max}^2\\\\v_{max}^2= 2gh_{max}\\\\v_{max} = \sqrt{2gh_{max}}

Substitute the given values and solve the speed;

v_{max} = \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 0.45} \\\\v_{max} = 2.97 \ m/s

Thus, the speed of the toy when it hits the ground is 2.97 m/s.
