A ray of light has a wavelength of

MArishka [77]

Answer:

The wavelength in vacuum is equal to 428.8 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

The wavelength of light, $\lambda=284\ nm$

The refractive index of glass, n = 1.51

We need to find the wavelength in vacuum. The relation between wavelength and refractive index is given by :

$n=\dfrac{\lambda_v}{\lambda}\\\\\lambda_v=n\times \lambda\\\\\lambda_v=1.51\times 284\\\\\lambda_v=428.8\ nm$

So, the wavelength in vacuum is equal to 428.8 nm.

1.Wave motion that is parallel to the wave direction is described

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

A wave is a phenomenon that travels through a material medium without any permanent effect on the medium. It can be classified as mechanical or electromagnetic waves. And the two major types are transverse and longitudinal.

From the given question;

1. Longitudinal waves e.g sound waves, waves in a spring'

2. Frequency (number of cycles per second).

3. Wavelength of the wave. Measured in meters.

4. Transverse waves e.g light waves, water waves.

5. Wave speed.

6. Electromagnetic waves e.g ultraviolet waves, X-rays etc.

7. Amplitude.

8. Hertz.

9. Rarefaction

10. Compression

A generator can be made using the component of Earth’s magnetic field that is parallel to Earth’s surface. A 140-turn square wir

Katen [24]

Answer:

The maximum induced emf is $\epsilon = 0.024 V$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The number of turns is $N = 140 \ turns$

The area of the square wire coil is $A = 4.30 * 10^{-2}m^2$

The frequency of rotation is $f = 21.4 Hz$

The earth magnetic field at that location is $B = 3.00 *10^{-5} T$

The induced emf is mathematically represented as

$\epsilon = N \ B \ A \ w sin(wt)$

At the maximum

$sin (wt) = 1$

So

$\epsilon = N \ B \ A \ w$

Where

$w$ is the angular velocity which is mathematically represented as

$w =2 \pi f$

Substituting values

$w = 2 * 3.142 * 21.4$

$w = 134.5 rad/sec$

The maximum induced emf is

$\epsilon = 140 * 3.00*10^{-5} * (4.30 *10^{-2}) * (134.5)$

$\epsilon = 0.024 V$
