f=\frac{v}{\lambda} where f is frequency, v is speed and \lambda is wavelength. So f=20/0.5=40. The unit is 1/s or Hz.

Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) = 20 / 0.5 = 40 per second = 40 Hz.

Explain how a generator creates electricity.
vlada-n [284]

Generators don't actually create electricity. Instead, they convert mechanical or chemical energy into electrical energy. They do this by capturing the power of motion and turning it into electrical energy by forcing electrons from the external source through an electrical circuit. hope it helps man

If a car used 260.000 W of power to complete a race in 15 s. how much work did the car do?
marta [7]

Work done by the car is 3900 J

Explanation:

  • Power and work are related by the equation, Power = Work Done/Time
  • Power is the rate at which work is done.
  • Here, the car uses power of 260 W and time taken is 15 s.

Work Done = Power × Time

                   = 260 × 15 = 3900 J

a 1.2x10^3 kilogram car is accelerated uniformly from 10. meters per second to 20 meters per second in 5.0 seconds. what is the
irinina [24]
Force , F = ma

F =  m(v - u)/t               

Where m = mass in kg, v= final velocity in m/s, u = initial velocity in m/s
t = time, Force is in Newton.

m= 1.2*10³ kg,  u = 10 m/s,  v = 20 m/s, t = 5s

F =  1.2*10³(20 - 10)/5

F = 2.4*10³ N = 2400 N

A certain type of laser emits light that has a frequency of 4.2 × 1014 Hz. The light, however, occurs as a series of short pulse
bogdanovich [222]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Frequency of the laser light, f=4.2\times 10^{14}\ Hz

Time, t=3.2\times 10^{-11}\ s

(a) Let \lambda is the wavelength of this light. It can be calculated as :

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{4.2\times 10^{14}}

\lambda=7.14\times 10^{-7}\ m

or

\lambda=714\ nm

(b) Let n is the number of the wavelengths in one pulse. It can be calculated as :

n=f\times t

n=4.2\times 10^{14}\times 3.2\times 10^{-11}

n = 13440

Hence, this is the required solution.
