Answer:

λ = 0.28m

Explanation:

Equation used is v = λf, where v is velocity, λ is wavelength, and f is frequency

We need to find wavelength so rearrange the equation in term of wavelength.

v = λf

λ = f/v

We know that period is the inverse of frequency (f = 1/T), so lets substitute that into our equation

λ = f/v

λ = (1/T)/v

Plug in your the given values given in the question.

We're given v=12m/s and T=3sec

λ = (1/T)/v

λ = (1/3)/12

λ = 1/36 = 0.2777777 = 0.28m

One of the brightest nebulae in the night sky, the Orion Nebula may be seen with the unaided eye. The Trapezium is a young open cluster of four main stars in this magnitude 4 interstellar cloud of ionized atomic hydrogen.

<h3>What is the source of the Orion Nebula's crimson glow?</h3>

The hydrogen gas in the Orion Nebula, which is powered by radiation from young stars, gives off a crimson tint. The nebula's blue-violet regions are reflecting radiation from bright, blue-white O-type stars while the red areas are emitting light.
The Orion Nebula is one of many massive clouds of gas and dust in our Milky Way galaxy, say contemporary astronomers, and is one of the largest. It is approximately 1,300 light years away from Earth. This enormous hazy cocoon, which measures approximately 30 to 40 light-years in diameter, is generating potentially a thousand stars.

What is the magnitude of the total acceleration of point A after 2 seconds? The bar starts from rest and has a constant angular

monitta

Answer:

a_total = 2 √ (α² + w⁴) , a_total = 2,236 m

Explanation:

The total acceleration of a body, if we use the Pythagorean theorem is

a_total² = a_T²2 + $a_{c}$ ²

where

the centripetal acceleration is

a_{c} = v² / r = w r²

tangential acceleration

a_T = dv / dt

angular and linear acceleration are related

a_T = α r

we substitute in the first equation

a_total = √ [(α r)² + (w r² )²]

a_total = 2 √ (α² + w⁴)

Let's find the angular velocity for t = 2 s if we start from rest wo = 0

w = w₀ + α t

w = 0 + 1.0 2

w = 2.0rad / s

we substitute

a_total = r √(1² + 2²) = r √5

a_total = r 2,236

In order to finish the calculation we need the radius to point A, suppose that this point is at a distance of r = 1 m

a_total = 2,236 m

Suppose a capacitor is fully charged by a battery and then disconnected from the battery. The positive plate has a charge +q and

dimaraw [331]

Answer:-q

Explanation:

Given

Capacitor is charged to a battery and capacitor acquired a charge of q i.e.

+q on Positive Plate and -q on negative Plate.

If the plate area is doubled and the plate separation is reduced to half its initial separation then capacitor becomes four times of initial value because capacitor is given by

$c=\epsilon_0 \cdot \frac{A}{d}$
