(a) 5.45 \cdot 10^{14} Hz

The relationship between frequency and wavelength of an electromagnetic wave is given by

c=f \lambda

where

c=3.00 \cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

f is the frequency

\lambda is the wavelength

In this problem, we are considering light with wavelength of

\lambda=5.50 \cdot 10^{-7} m

Substituting into the equation and re-arranging it, we can find the corresponding frequency:

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}=\frac{3.00 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{5.50 \cdot 10^{-7} m}=5.45 \cdot 10^{14} Hz

(b) 1.83\cdot 10^{-15} s

The period of a wave is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency:

T=\frac{1}{f}

And using f=5.45 \cdot 10^{14} Hz as we found in the previous part, we can find the period of this wave:

T=\frac{1}{5.45 \cdot 10^{14} Hz}=1.83\cdot 10^{-15} s

Describe how the coriolis effect acts differently based on location on earth
sammy [17]

Explanation:

The Coriolis effect happens when an entity is perceived from a moving reference frame going in a straight path. The changing reference frame makes the object appear as if it were moving along a curved road.

Circulation is counter-clockwise in the northern hemisphere. Circulation is clockwise in the southern hemisphere, and it is the equator, it is straight down without circulation.

A transverse wave on a string is described by the wave functiony(x, t) = 0.350 sin (1.25x + 99.6t)where x and y are in meters an
ella [17]

The time interval that is between the first two instants when the element has a position of 0.175 is 0.0683.

<h3>How to solve for the time interval</h3>

We have y = 0.175

y(x, t) = 0.350 sin (1.25x + 99.6t) = 0.175

sin (1.25x + 99.6t) = 0.175

sin (1.25x + 99.6t) = 0.5

99.62 = pi/6

t1 = 5.257 x 10⁻³

99.6t = pi/6 + 2pi

= 0.0683

The time interval that is between the first two instants when the element has a position of 0.175 is 0.0683.

b. we have k = 1.25, w = 99.6t

v = w/k

99.6/1.25 = 79.68

s = vt

= 79.68 * 0.0683

= 5.02

A transverse wave on a string is described by the wave function y(x, t) = 0.350 sin (1.25x + 99.6t) where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds. Consider the element of the string at x=0. (a) What is the time interval between the first two instants when this element has a position of y= 0.175 m? (b) What distance does the wave travel during the time interval found in part (a)?
