Answer:

The frequency of the wave is 5 x 10⁹ Hz

Explanation:

Given;

wavelength of the radio wave, λ = 6.0 × 10⁻²m

radio wave is an example of electromagnetic wave, and electromagnetic waves travel with speed of light, which is equal to 3 x 10⁸ m/s².

Applying wave equation;

V = F λ

where;

V is the speed of the wave

F is the frequency of the wave

λ  is the wavelength

Make F the subject of the formula

F = V /  λ

F = (3 x 10⁸) / (6.0 × 10⁻²)

F = 5 x 10⁹ Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the wave is 5 x 10⁹ Hz

Answer:

660 J/kg/°C

Explanation:

Heat lost by metal = heat gained by water

-m₁C₁ΔT₁ = m₂C₂ΔT₂

-(0.45 kg) C₁ (21°C − 80°C) = (0.70 kg) (4200 J/kg/°C) (21°C − 15°C)

C₁ = 660 J/kg/°C

A car has two horns, one emitting a frequency of 199 hz and the other emitting a frequency of 203 hz. what beat frequency do the
andriy [413]
Beat frequency, fb = |f2-f1|

That is, beat frequency is the absolute difference between two frequencies. Is is as a results of destructive and constructive inferences.

Therefore, in this case:

fb = 203 - 199 = 4 Hz
