Answer:

The wavelength of these signals is as follow:

Wavelength of 550 kHz is 545.45 m
Wavelength of 1600 kHz is 187.5 m

Explanation:

Given that:

Frequency = 550 kHz & 1600 kHz

Velocity = 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s

As we know that frequency is expressed by the following equation:

Frequency = Velocity / Wavelength ---- (1)

For 550 kHz:

The equation can be rearranged as

Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency

Wavelength = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (550 x 1000 Hz)

Wavelength = 545.45 m

For 1600 kHz:

Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency

Wavelength = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (1600 x 1000 Hz)

Wavelength = 187.5 m

Two blocks with masses 1 and 2 are connected by a massless string that passes over a massless pulley as shown. 1 has a mass of 2

Bess [88]

Answer:

The acceleration of $M_2$ is $a = 0.7156 m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of first block is $M_1 = 2.25 \ kg$

The angle of inclination of first block is $\theta _1 = 43.5^o$

The coefficient of kinetic friction of the first block is $\mu_1 = 0.205$

The mass of the second block is $M_2 = 5.45 \ kg$

The angle of inclination of the second block is $\theta _2 = 32.5^o$

The coefficient of kinetic friction of the second block is $\mu _2 = 0.105$

The acceleration of $M_1 \ and\ M_2$ are same

The force acting on the mass $M_1$ is mathematically represented as

$F_1 = T - M_1gsin \theta_1 - \mu_1 M_1 g cos\theta_1$

=> $M_1 a = T - M_1gsin \theta_1 - \mu_1 M_1 g cos\theta_1$

Where T is the tension on the rope

The force acting on the mass $M_2$ is mathematically represented as

$F_2 = M_2gsin \theta_2 - T -\mu_2 M_2 g cos\theta_2$

$M_2 a = M_2gsin \theta_2 - T -\mu_2 M_2 g cos\theta_2$

At equilibrium

$F_1 = F_2$

So

$T - M_1gsin \theta_1 - \mu_1 M_1 g cos\theta_1 =M_2gsin \theta_2 - T -\mu_2 M_2 g cos\theta_2$

making a the subject of the formula

$a = \frac{M_2 g sin \theta_2 - M_1 g sin \theta_1 - \mu_1 M_1g cos \theta - \mu_2 M_2 g cos \theta_2 }{M_1 +M_2}$

substituting values $a = \frac{(5.45) (9.8) sin (32.5) - (2.25) (9.8) sin (43.5) - (0.205)*(2.25) *9.8cos (43.5) - (0.105)*(5.45) *(9.8) cos(32.5) }{2.25 +5.45}$

=> $a = 0.7156 m/s^2$

A cyclotron designed to accelerate protons has a magnetic field of magnitude 0.15 T over a region of radius 7.4 m. The charge on

klio [65]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, B = 0.15 T

Charge on a proton, $q=1.60218\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Mass of a proton, $m=1.67262 \times 10^{-27}\ kg$

The cyclotron frequency is given by :

$f=\dfrac{qB}{2\pi m}$

$f=\dfrac{1.60218\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 0.15\ T}{2\pi \times 1.67262 \times 10^{-27}\ kg}$

f = 2286785.40 Hz

or

$\omega=14368296.44\ rad/s$

$\omega=1.43\times 10^7 rad/s$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A 0.153 kg glider is moving to the right on a frictionless, horizontal air track with a speed of 0.700 m/s. It has a head-on col

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

3.1216 m/s.

Explanation:

Given:

M1 = 0.153 kg

v1 = 0.7 m/s

M2 = 0.308 kg

v2 = -2.16 m/s

M1v1 + M2v2 = M1V1 + M2V2

0.153 × 0.7 + 0.308 × -2.16 = 0.153 × V1 + 0.308 × V2

= 0.1071 - 0.66528 = 0.153 × V1 + 0.308 × V2

0.153V1 + 0.308V2 = -0.55818. i

For the velocities,

v1 - v2 = -(V1 - V2)

0.7 - (-2.16) = -(V1 - V2)

-(V1 - V2) = 2.86

V2 - V1 = 2.86. ii

Solving equation i and ii simultaneously,

V1 = 3.1216 m/s

V2 = 0.2616 m/s
