We can answer the problem by Snell's Law:

Snell's law<span> (also known as </span>Snell<span>–Descartes </span>law<span> and the </span>law<span> of refraction) is a formula used to describe the relationship between the angles of incidence and refraction, when referring to light or other waves passing through a boundary between two different isotropic media, such as water, glass, or air.</span>

A space probe produces a radio signal pulse. If the pulse reaches Earth 12.3 seconds after it is emitted by the probe, what is t
adoni [48]

Answer:

Distance = 3.69 × 10^9 m

The distance from the probe to Earth is 3.69 × 10^9 m

Explanation:

Distance from the probe to the Earth can be derived using the simple motion formula;

Distance = speed × time .....1

Since a radio signal uses an electromagnetic wave to transfer signal, it has the same speed as the speed of light.

Speed of radio signal = speed of light = 3.0 × 10^8 m/s

time taken to reach the earth = 12.3 seconds

Substituting the values of speed and time into equation 1;

Distance = 3.0 × 10^8 m/s × 12.3 s

Distance = 36.9 × 10^8 m

Distance = 3.69 × 10^9 m

Note: all electromagnetic radiation have the same speed which is equal to 3.0 × 10^8 m/s

Which describes the relationship between photon energy and the color of light?
Andrew [12]
Photon energy is directly proportional to the frequency of electromagnetic radiation.
(That would also mean that it's inversely proportional to the wavelength.)

So the photon energy increases as you scan the chart of visible colors
moving from the red end of the rainbow to the blue end.

The distance between 4 nodes (3 sections, 2 sections= wavelength) is 15.0cm. The frequency of the source is 10Hz. What's the spe
Natalija [7]

Answer:

the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the wave, f = 10 Hz = 10

distance between 4 nodes, L = 15.0 cm

The wavelength (λ) of the wave is calculated as follows;

Node to Node = λ/2

L = 2(Node to Node) = (4 Nodes) = 2 (λ/2) = λ

Thus, λ = L = 15.0 cm

The speed (v) of the wave is calculated as follows;

v = fλ

v =  10 Hz   x  15.0 cm

v = 150 cm/s

Therefore, the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s
