(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

If many household substances classify as acids or bases what is the ph scale
bekas [8.4K]

Answer: Some household items that contain acids include: yogurt, vinegar,lemon juice, citric acid, apples, jelly, pineapples, cranberry sauce, milk, and batteries and In chemistry, pH is a scale used to specify how acidic or basic a water-based solution is. Acidic solutions have a lower pH, while basic solutions have a higher pH. At room temperature, pure water is neither acidic nor basic and has a pH of 7.

34. A train, starting from rest, accelerates along the platform at a uniform rate of 0.6 m/s2. A passenger standing on the platf
ira [324]

Answer:

4.08 s

Explanation:

Let the passenger took "t" time to catch the train

so in this case the total distance moved by the train + 5 m = total distance moved by the passenger

so we will have

distance moved by train is given as

d_1 = \frac{1}{2}(0.6) t^2

also the distance moved by passenger

d_2 = \frac{1}{2}(1.2) t^2

so we will have

d_1 + 5 = d_2

0.3 t^2 + 5 = 0.6 t^2

0.3 t^2 = 5

t = 4.08 s
