Answer:

Option D.) 5.0 x 10^-4m

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

f (frequency) = 6 x 10^11 Hz

v (velocity) = 3.00 x 10^8 m/s

λ (wavelength) =?

Using the equation v = λf, the wavelength can be obtained as illustrated below:

v = λf

λ = v/f

λ = 3.00 x 10^8/6 x 10^11

λ = 5 x 10^-4m

Therefore, the wavelength of the beam of the electromagnetic radiation is 5 x 10^-4m

The gravitational force between two objects (mass1 = 10kg, mass2 = 6kg) is measured when the objects are 12 centimeters apart. I
Yanka [14]
Since the new distance is 3 times the old distance,
the new force is (1/3²) = 1/9th of the old force.

That's kind-of Choice-D, but I really don't like the way choice-D is worded.
"9 times smaller" is really pretty meaningless.

A space vehicle of mass m has a speed v. At some instant, it separates into two pieces, each of mass 0.5m. One of the pieces is
Damm [24]

Answer:

W = ½ m v²

Explanation:

In this exercise we must solve it in parts, in a first part we use the conservation of the moment to find the speed after the separation

We define the system formed by the two parts of the rocket, therefore the forces during internal separation and the moment are conserved

initial instant. before separation

        p₀ = m v

final attempt. after separation

       p_{f} = m /2  0 + m /2 v_{f}

       p₀ = p_{f}

       m v = m /2 v_{f}

       v_{f}= 2 v

this is the speed of the second part of the ship

now we can use the relation of work and energy, which establishes that the work is initial to the variation of the kinetic energy of the body

     

initial energy

         K₀ = ½ m v²

final energy

        K_{f} = ½ m/2  0 + ½ m/2 v_{f}²

        K_{f} = ¼ m (2v)²

        K_{f} = m v²

         

the expression for work is

         W = ΔK = K_{f} - K₀

         W = m v² - ½ m v²

         W = ½ m v²

The resistance 2 Ω, 4 Ω and 8 Ω are connected in parallel. Their equivalent
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter B. R = 8/7 Ω

Explanation:

Data

R1 = 2 Ω

R2 = 4Ω

R3 = 8Ω

To calculate the total resistance use the formula

         1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

-Substitution

         1/R = 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8

- Look for the Greatest common factor

              2   4   8    2

               1   2    4   2

                    1    2   2

                          1

The GCF = 2 x 2 x 2 = 8

-Sum up the fractions

                 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 = (4 + 2 + 1) / 8

                                        = 7/8

-Find R

               1/R = 7/8    then, R = 8/7 Ω

Build a second circuit with a battery and a light bulb but this time add a switch. Your circuit might look something like the on
kompoz [17]

Answer:

the resistance of the wire has no effect on the brightness of the bulb.

Explanation:

Let's apply ohm's law for your light bulb circuit plus wires plus switch

             V = I R_{bulb} + I R_ {wire}

the current in a series circuit is constant

             V = I (R_{bulb} + R_{wire})

To know the effect of the wires on the brightness of the bulb, we must look for the value of the typical resistance of these elements.

Incandescent bulb

Power 60 W

let's use the power ratio

            P = V I = V2 / R

            R = V2 / P

the voltage value for this power is V = 120 V

            R = 120 2/60

            R_bulb = 240 Ω

Resistance of a 14 gauge copper wire (most used), we look for it on the internet

            R = 8.45 Ω/ km

in a laboratory circuit approximately 2 m is used, so the resistance of our cable is

            R = 8.45 10⁻³ 2

            R_wire = 0.0169 Ω

let's buy the two resistors

            R_{bulb} = 240

            R_{wire} = 0.0169

            \frac{R_{bulb} }{R_{wire} } = \frac{240 }{ 0.0169}

              \frac{ R_{bulb} }{ R_{wire} } = 1.4 \ 10^4

therefore resistance of the bulb is much greater than that of the wire, therefore almost all the power is dissipated in the bulb.

In summary, the resistance of the wire has no effect on the brightness of the bulb.
