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

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power.

Explanation:

The power of an object is given by :

P=\dfrac{E}{t}

Here,

E is the energy required

t is time

The SI unit of power is Watts and the SI unit of energy is Joule. the commercial unit of energy is kilowatt per hour.    

Option (1) :  A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of power is incorrect.

Option (2) : A gigawatt (GW) is a unit of energy is incorrect.

Option (3) : A watt (W) is a unit of energy is incorrect.

Option (4) : A kilowatt x hour per year (kWh/yr) is a unit of energy is incorrect.

Option (4) : A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power is correct.

Hence, the correct option is (d).

Pedro picked up and held a cube of ice in his hand and noticed that he no longer felt a difference in temperature after the ice
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

the answers is 1.

Explanation:

this is because heat always travel's from the warmest object to the coldest. His hands thermal energy is transferred to the ice making the ice round to the same temperature of his hand. This can also be an example of equalibrum.

A baseball player slides into third base with an initial speed of 4.0 m/s . if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the p
satela [25.4K]
The work done by the friction force to stop the player is equal to his loss of kinetic energy:
W= \Delta K

The work done by the friction force is the magnitude of the force \mu m g times the distance covered by the player, d:
W= \mu mg d

The loss in kinetic energy is simply equal to the initial kinetic energy of the player, since the final kinetic energy is zero (the player comes to rest):
\Delta K=K_i =  \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Substituting into the first equation, we get:
\mu m g d=  \frac{1}{2}mv^2
from which we find d, the distance covered by the player:
d= \frac{v^2}{2 \mu g}= \frac{(4.0 m/s)^2}{2 \cdot 0.4 \cdot 9.81 m/s^2}=2.04 m
