<h2>Answer:</h2>

11.52cm

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The velocity, v, of a wave undergoing a simple harmonic motion is related to the wavelength, λ, and frequency, f, of the wave as follows;

v =  f x λ         -----------------(i)

But;

The velocity is also given as the ratio of the length, l, of the body producing the wave to the time taken, t, to undergo the motion. i.e

v = \frac{l}{t}         --------------(ii)

Now, substitute the value of v in equation (ii) into equation (i) as follows;

\frac{l}{t} = f x λ           ----------------(iii)

From the question,

l = 4.32m

t = 0.5s

f = 75Hz

Substitute these values into equation (iii) as follows;

\frac{4.32}{0.5} = 75 x λ

Make λ subject of the formula;

λ = \frac{4.32}{0.5*75}

λ = 0.1152m

Convert the value to cm by multiplying by 100

λ = 0.1152 x 100cm = 11.52cm

Therefore, the wavelength of the waves on the string is 11.52cm

To solve this problem, we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of linear motion, which define speed as the distance traveled per unit of time. Subsequently, the wavelength is defined as the speed of a body at the rate of change of its frequency. Our values are given as,

\text{Length of the string} = L = 4.32 m

\text{Frequency of the wave} = f = 75 Hz

\text{Time taken to reach the other end} = t = 0.5 s

Velocity of the wave,

V = \frac{L}{t}

V = \frac{4.32 m}{0.5s}

V = 8.64m/s

Wavelength of the wave,

\lambda = \frac{V}{f}

\lambda = \frac{8.64m/s}{75Hz}

\lambda = 0.1152m

\lambda = 11.52cm

Therefore the wavelength of the waves on the string is 11.53 cm

The temperature of a black body is 500 and its radiation is of wavelength 600 . If the number of oscillators with energy is 100
stiks02 [169]

Answer: An equation is missing in your question below is the missing equation

a) ≈ 8396

b) 150 nm/k

Explanation:

<u>A) Determine the number of Oscillators in the black body</u>

number of oscillators = 8395

attached below is the detailed solution

<u>b) determine the peak wavelength of the black body </u>

Black body temperature = 20,000 K

applying Wien's law / formula

λmax = b / T  ------ ( 1 )

T = 20,000 K

b = 3 * 10^6 nm

∴  λmax = 150 nm/k
