In a light wave, what properties tell you the color of light

Physics
1 answer:
sesenic [268]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Answer :- In a light wave the property of wave which tells about the color of light is it's Wavelength .

Wavelength is the distance between one crest and one through , also it is the distance after which the wave repeat itself !

It's SI unit is meter !

It is scalar quantity !!

Different Wavelength of light have different color !!

• VIBGYOR

i.e, Violent , Indigo , Blue , Green , Yellow Orange, and Red along with their shades are the colors which we can see !!

• They almost range from 400nm to 700nm ( visible range of light ) !!

Marizza181 [45]
Using the pressure law (P1 x V1)/ T1 = (P2 x V2)/ T2 where P1= the initial pressure V1= initial volume T1= initial temperature and P2= the final pressure V2= the final volume T2 = the final temperature and temperature is always in kelvin

Suppose you could suddenly increase the speed of every molecule in a gas by a factor of 2. Would the gas pressure increase by a
Elena L [17]

<h2>The pressure will become double </h2>

Explanation:

The gas pressure is directly proportional to the mean root square velocity of the constituent molecules of gas .

P ∝ \sqrt{\frac{C_1^2+C_2^2+C_3^2----C_n^2}{n} }      I

Here C₁ , C₂ ------------ Cₙ is the velocities of molecules .

By making these velocities double

The pressure P₀ ∝ 2\sqrt{\frac{C_1^2+C_2^2+C_3^2----C_n^2}{n} }          II

By dividing II by I

P₀ = 2 P

Thus pressure will become double than its previous value

At 600.0 k the rate constant is 6.1× 10–8 s–1. what is the value of the rate constant at 785.0 k?
photoshop1234 [79]
Missing details. Complete text is:"The following reaction has an activation energy of 262 kJ/mol:
C4H8(g) --> 2C2h4(g)
At 600.0 K the rate constant is 6.1× 10–8 s–1. What is the value of the rate constant at 785.0 K?"
To solve the exercise, we can use Arrhenius equation:
\ln( \frac{K_2}{K_1} ) =  \frac{Ea}{R} ( \frac{1}{T_1}- \frac{1}{T_2}  )
where K are the reaction rates, Ea is the activation energy, R=8.314 J/mol*K and T are the temperatures. Using T1=600 K and T2=785 K, and Ea=262 kJ/mol = 262000 J/mol, on the right side of the equation we have
\frac{Ea}{R}( \frac{1}{T_1}- \frac{1}{T_2}  )=12.38
And so
\ln( \frac{K_2}{K_1})=12.38
And using K_1=6.1\cdot 10^{-8} s^{-1} , we find K2:
K_2=K_1 e^{12.38}=0.0145 s^{-1}

Tsunamis are fast-moving waves often generated by underwater earthquakes. In the deep ocean their amplitude is barely noticable,
Charra [1.4K]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of motion. And from the speed found the relationships between wavelength, frequency and last of the period (which is inversely proportional to the frequency)

PART A) We know that the velocity of a body or a wave is equivalent to the distance traveled over a time interval. So,

V = \frac{x}{t}

Where

x = Distance

t = time

V = \frac{3650*10^{3}}{4.59h(\frac{3600s}{1h})}

V = 215.44m/s

PART B) The frequency would then be defined as

f = \frac{V}{\lambda}

Where

\lambda = Wavelength

f = \frac{215.44}{732*10^{3}}

f = 2.943*10^{-4}Hz

PART C) Finally the period is defined as

T = \frac{1}{f}

T = \frac{1}{2.943*10^{-4}}

T = \frac{1}{2.943*10^{-4}}

T = 3397.89s
