The highest point of a wave is called the crest. Among the choices, the correct answer is C. The height of the wave can be determined using the crest and the trough. The trough is the lowest point of a wave. The wavelength is the distance between two crests of a wave.

A proposed space station consists of a circular tube that will rotate about its center (like a tubular bicycle tire), Fig. 5–39.

Trava [24]

Answer:

1742.24106 revolutions per day

Explanation:

v = Velocity

d = Diameter = 1.1 km

r = Radius = $\dfrac{d}{2}=\dfrac{1.1}{2}=0.55\ km$

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

g = 0.9 g

The centrifugal force will balance the gravitational force

$F_c=mg\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{mv^2}{r}=m0.9g\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.9gmr}{m}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{0.9gr}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{0.9\times 9.81\times 0.55\times 10^3}\\\Rightarrow v=69.68464\ m/s$

$\dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{v}{2\pi r}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{69.68464}{2\pi 0.55\times 10^3}\times 24\times 60\times 60\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{T}=1742.24106\ rev/day$

The rotation speed is 1742.24106 revolutions per day

The wavelength of the visible line in the hydrogen spectrum that corresponds to m = 5 in the Balmer equation is: A. 656 nm. B. 4

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The wavelength of the visible line in the hydrogen spectrum is 434 nm.

Explanation:

It is given that, the wavelength of the visible line in the hydrogen spectrum that corresponds to n₂ = 5 in the Balmer equation.

For Balmer series, the wave number is given by :

$\dfrac{1}{\lambda}=R(\dfrac{1}{n_1^2}-\dfrac{1}{n_2^2})$

R is the Rydberg's constant

For Balmer series, n₁ = 2. So,

$\dfrac{1}{\lambda}=1.097\times 10^7\times (\dfrac{1}{2^2}-\dfrac{1}{5^2})$

$\lambda=4.34\times 10^{-7}\ m$

$\lambda=434\ nm$

So, the wavelength of the visible line in the hydrogen spectrum is 434 nm. Hence, this is the required solution.

A plane travels 4.0 km at an angle of 25◦ to the ground, then changes direction and travels 10 km at an angle of 16◦ to the grou

Maslowich

Answer:

6.1 km

Explanation:

Given that a plane travels 4.0 km at an angle of 25◦ to the ground, then changes direction and travels 10 km at an angle of 16◦ to the ground. What is the magnitude of the plane's total displacement? Answer in units of km

The magnitude of the total displacement D can be calculated by using cosine formula

Ø = 25 - 16 = 9 degree

D^2 = 4^2 + 10^2 - 2 × 4 × 10 × cos 9

D^2 = 16 + 100 - 80cos9

D^2 = 116 - 79.02

D = sqrt( 36.98)

D = 6.1 m

Therefore, the magnitude of the plane's total displacement is 6.1 km
