Answer:

The speed of light (c)

Explanation:

The equation that relates the magnetic field component of an electromagnetic wave the the electric field component of the wave is:

$E=cB$

where

E is the magnitude of the electric field component

B is the magnitude of the magnetic field component

c is the speed of light in a vacuum, whose value is

$c=3.0 \cdot 10^8 m/s$

Re-arranging the equation to solve for B, we find:

$B=\frac{E}{c}$

A 61 kg skater is traveling at 2.5 m/s while carrying a 4.0 kg bowling ball. After he throws the bowling ball forward at twice t

gregori [183]

The final velocity of the skater is 2.34 m/s forward

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum of the system before and after the ball is thrown must be conserved, in absence of external forces.

Before the ball is thrown, the total momentum is:

$p_i = (M+m)u$

where

M = 61 kg is the mass of the skater

m = 4.0 kg is the mass of the ball

u = 2.5 m/s (forward) is the combined velocity of the skater and the ball

After, the ball is thrown at twice the velocity, so the final total momentum is

$p_f = MV+mv$

where

V is the final velocity of the skater

v = 2(2.5) = 5.0 is the final velocity of the ball

Since the total momentum must be conserved, we can write

$p_i = p_f\\(M+m)u = MV+mv\\V=\frac{(M+m)u-mv}{M}=\frac{(61+4.0)(2.5)-(4.0)(5.0)}{61}=2.34 m/s$

So, the skater is moving at 2.34 m/s (forward) after the shot.

On which surface will the ball move the least distance?

Lisa [10]

Answer:

C) Frosted glass sheet

Explanation:

C) Frosted glass sheet

because it is Icy and slippery which make the ball move from its least distance

8. What is the frequency of green light waves that have a wavelength of 5.2 x 10-7 m.? The speed of light is 3.0 x 108 m/s

o-na [289]

Answer:

$f=5.76\times 10^{14}\ Hz$

Explanation:

We need to find the frequency of green light having wavelength o $5.2\times 10^{-7}\ m$ . It can be calculated as follows :

$c=f\lambda\\\\f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{5.2\times 10^{-7}}\\\\f=5.76\times 10^{14}\ Hz$

So, the required frequency of green light is equal to $5.76\times 10^{14}\ Hz$ .

What mass of a material with density rho is required to make a hollow spherical shell having inner radius r1 and outer radius r2

Margarita [4]

Answer:

$m=\rho\times \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times(r_2^3-r_1^3 )$

Explanation:

We have to make a hollow sphere of inner radius $r_1$ and outer radius $r_2$ .

Then the mass of the material required to make such a sphere would be calculated as:

Total volume of the spherical shell:

$V_t=\frac{4}{3} \pi.r_2^3$

And the volume of the hollow space in the sphere:

$V_h=\frac{4}{3} \pi.r_1^3$

Therefore the net volume of material required to make the sphere:

$V=V_t-V_h$

$V=\frac{4}{3} \pi(r_2^3-r_1^3)$

Now let the density of the of the material be $\rho$ .

<u>Then the mass of the material used is:</u>

$m=\rho.V$

$m=\rho\times \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times(r_2^3-r_1^3 )$
