a light wave travels at 3.0 x 10^8 m/s. if the wavelength of a red wave is 700 x 10^-9m, what is the frequency?

1 answer:

3 0

Frequency = (speed) divided by (wavelength)

   = (3 x 10⁸ m/s) / (700 x 10⁻⁹ m)

   = (3 / 700) x 10¹⁷ ( per sec )

   = 4.286 x 10¹⁴ per sec = 4.286 x 10¹⁴ Hz.

   = 42,860 GHz .

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

s=1721.344m ,v=104.96m/s.

Explanation:

using thr equation of motion;

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

u=0, plane starts from rest,

$s=\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

$a=3.2m/s^{2}, t=32.8s \\ s=\frac{1}{2}*3.2*32.8^{2}$

s=1721.344m

v=u+at

v=0 +3.2*32.8

v=104.96m/s
