Humans have three types of cone cells in their eyes, which are responsible for color vision. Each type absorbs a certain part of

the visible spectrum. Suppose a particular cone cell absorbs light with a wavelength of 430nm. Calculate the frequency of this light.

Answer:

6.97 E 16

Explanation:

Frequency is a function of velocity of light to it's wavelength.

Mathematically written as

F = Velocity / wavelength

Velocity of light = 3 x 10^8

Wavelength =430 nm =430 x 10^-9 m

converting wavelength from nanaometer to meter we divide by 10^9

Frequency = (3 x 10^8)/(430 x10^-9) =6.97 E 16

Calculate the heat flux (in W/m^2) through a sheet of a metal 14 mm thick if the temperatures at the two faces are 350 and 140°C
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

The rate of conductive heat transfer in watts is:

q = (k/s) A ΔT

where k is the heat conductivity, s is the thickness, A is the area, and ΔT is the temperature difference.

a)

Given k = 52.4 W/m/K, s = 0.014 m, and ΔT = 350-140 = 210 K, we can find q/A:

q/A = (52.4 / 0.014) (210)

q/A = 786,000 W/m²

b)

Given that A = 0.42 m², we can find q:

q = (0.42 m²) (786,000 W/m²)

q = 330,120 W

A watt is a Joule per second.  Convert to Joules per hour:

q = 330,120 J/s * 3600 s/hr

q = 1.19×10⁹ J/hr

c)

If we change k to 1.8 W/m/K:

q = (k/s) A ΔT

q = (1.8 / 0.014) (0.42) (210)

q = 11,340 J/s

q = 4.08×10⁷ J/hr

d)

If k is 52.4 W/m/K and s is 0.024 m:

q = (k/s) A ΔT

q = (52.4 / 0.024) (0.42) (210)

q = 192,570 J/s

q = 6.93×10⁸ J/hr

A weightlifter lifts a set of weights a vertical distance of 2.00m.If a constant net force of 350 N is exerted on the weights,wh
MrMuchimi

Answer:

<em>W=700 Joule</em>

Explanation:

<u>Physics Work </u>

Is the dot product of the force vector by the displacement vector

W=\vec F \cdot \vec r

When both the force and the displacements are pointed in the same direction, the formula reduces to its scalar version

W=F.d

The weightlifter is applying a net force of 350 N to lift the weights a distance of 2 m, thus the net work done is

W=350\ N\ .\ 2\ m=700\ Joule
