Speed of light= wavelenght * frequency

Frequency = (3x10^8)/(1 x 10^-4)
= 3 x 10^+12

Marina86 [1]

Answer: Fuel is burned in engines to make the motor move.

( Chemical to Mechanical )

Explanation:

during combustion of the diesel ( when the fuel is burnt in the engine of the vehicle, the diesel ( chemical energy ) is transformed or converted to Mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is what the truck uses in moving. Without the combustion of the fuel the vehicle won’t move and the combustion of diesel is achieved through compression unlike that of fuel.

A 2.51 kg ball is attached to a ceiling by a 1.19 m long string. The height of the room is 3.45 m. The acceleration of gravity i

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

55,42 J

Explanation:

Since the height of the room is 3.45 m (distance between the floor and the ceiling) the difference between this value and the length of the rope 1.19 m; it will be equal to (3.45-1.19) =2.26 m. If we take as a reference point (Ep=0) the floor of the room, then the potential energy will be equal to Ep = M * g * h, replacing values in this equation (2.5 kg * 9.81 m/s2 * 2.26 m) will be 55,42 (N * m) or Jules.

Three resistors connected in series have potential differences across them labeled /\V1 , /\V2 , and /\V3. What expresses the po

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

$\Delta V=\Delta V_1+\Delta V_2+\Delta V_3$

Explanation:

We are given that three resistors R1, R2 and R3 are connected in series.

Let

Potential difference across $R_1=\Delta V_1$

Potential difference across $R_2=\Delta V_2$

Potential difference across $R_3=\Delta V_3$

We know that in series combination

Potential difference , $V=V_1+V_2+V_3$

Using the formula

$\Delta V=\Delta V_1+\Delta V_2+\Delta V_3$

Hence, this is required expression for potential difference.

Two cars, one of mass 1400 kg, and the

Vikki [24]

Suppose that, in the x-y plane, the first car is moving to the right so that its velocity is given by the vector

v₁ = (14 m/s) i

and the second car is moving upward so that its velocity vector is

v₂ = (20 m/s) j

Then the total momentum of two cars before their collision is

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (1400 kg) (14 m/s) i + (2300 kg) (20 m/s) j

= (19,600 i + 46,000 j) kg•m/s

Their momentum after the collision is

(1400 kg + 2300 kg) v = (3700 kg) v

where v is the velocity vector of the wreckage.

By conservation of momentum,

(19,600 i + 46,000 j) kg•m/s = (3700 kg) v

Let a and b be the horizontal and vertical components of v, respectively. Then

19,600 kg•m/s = (3700 kg) a ⇒ a ≈ 5.2973 m/s ≈ 5.3 m/s

46,000 kg•m/s = (3700 kg) b ⇒ b ≈ 12.4324 m/s ≈ 12 m/s

so that the final speed of the wreckage is

||v|| = √(a² + b²) ≈ 13.5139 m/s ≈ 14 m/s
