alexandr402 [8]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: False.

Explanation: The Earth rotates once per day in direction from East to West. The rotation of the Earth daily is responsible for day and night experienced, the areas of the Earth facing the Sun experiences day time while the areas of the Earth away from the Sun in the Earth's shadow experiences night time.

While the revolution of the Earth around the gives rise to a year, as it takes 365 days for the Earth to go round the sun.

A convex lens with focal length 9 cm forms an image of an object placed 21 cm to the left of the lens. what is the distance to t
bixtya [17]

Answer:

15.75 cm

Explanation:

focal length of convex lens, f = + 9 cm

position of object, u = - 21 cm

Let the distance of image is v.

Use lens equation

1 / f = 1 / v - 1 / u

1 / 9 = 1 / v + 1 / 21

1 / v = 1 / 9 - 1 / 21 = (21 - 9) / (21 x 9)

1 / v = 12 / 189

v = 15.75 cm

gayle cooks a roast in her microwave oven. the klystron tube in the oven emits photons whose energy is 1.20 x 10^-3 ev. what are
AveGali [126]

Answer:

\lambda=1.03\times 10^{-3}\ m

Explanation:

Given that,

The energy of the microwave oven is 1.2\times 10^{-3}\ eV.

We need to find the wavelength of these photons.

1.2\times 10^{-3}\ eV=1.2\times 10^{-3}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\\\\=1.92\times 10^{-22}\ J

The energy of a wave is given by :

E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{hc}{E}

Put all the values,

\lambda=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{1.92\times 10^{-22}}\\\\\lambda=1.03\times 10^{-3}\ m

So, the wavelength of these photon is 1.03\times 10^{-3}\ m.
