An electromagnetic wave of wavelength

Physics
1 answer:
Ivanshal [37]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

4.01\cdot 10^{-7} m

Explanation:

When an electromagnetic wave passes through the interface between two mediums, it undergoes refraction, which means that it bents and its speed and its wavelength change.

In particular, the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave in a certain medium is related to the index of refraction of the medium by:

\lambda=\frac{\lambda_0}{n}

where

\lambda_0 is the wavelength in a vacuum (air is a good approximation of vacuum)

n is the refractive index of the medium

In this problem:

\lambda_0 = 5.89\cdot 10^{-7} m is the original wavelength of the wave

n = 1.47 is the index of refraction of corn oil

Therefore, the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave in corn oil is:

\lambda=\frac{5.89\cdot 10^{-7}}{1.47}=4.01\cdot 10^{-7} m

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

8.35 × 10^{-3} kg

Explanation:

Remember the formula for heat:

Q=mc\Delta T

You just need to solve for m, doing so you're left with:

m=\dfrac{Q}{c\Delta T}

Replace the variables with numbers and that's it.

A heat engine exhausts 3 000 J of heat while performing 1 500 J of useful work. What is the efficiency of the engine
amid [387]

efficiency=work output/work input×100

since it exhausts(use up)3000j of heat that's the work input and the 1500j is the work input

efficiency=1500/3000×100

=50%

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:A. It is modified by the cell, so there is still more glucose on the outside of the cell than inside it

Explanation: The cells are the primary unit of a living organism,it is the place where cellular respiration takes place, which is the use of oxygen to break down food substances such as Glucose to release energy in the form of Adenosine trisphosphate (ATP) and give out Carbondioxide as a by-product of cellular respiration.

Most of the Glucose enter the cells to get modified through cellular respiration so their is still more Glucose outside than the Glucose inside.
