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

a 0.40kg soccer ball approaches a player horizontally with a velocity of 18m/s north. the player strikes the ball and causes it
denis23 [38]
Impulse = Ft = (m)(delta v)
delta v = change in velocity = velocity final - velocity initial.
= -22m/s - +18m/s = -40m/s.
mdeltav = (0.40kg)(-40m/s) = -16kgm/s or -16Ns.

Describe the main distinguishing features of spiral, elliptical, and irregular galaxies.
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Spiral galaxies consist of a flat, rotating disk of stars, gas and dust, and a central concentration of stars known as the bulge. These are surrounded by a much fainter halo of stars, many of which reside in globular clusters.

Elliptical galaxies have smooth, featureless light-profiles and range in shape from nearly spherical to highly flattened, and in size from hundreds of millions to over one trillion stars. In the outer regions, many stars are grouped into globular clusters. Most elliptical galaxies are composed of older, low-mass stars, with a sparse interstellar medium and minimal star formation activity They are often chaotic in appearance, with neither a nuclear bulge nor any trace of spiral arm structure. Collectively they are thought to make up about a quarter of all galaxies.

irregular galaxies were once spiral or elliptical galaxies but were deformed by gravitational action. they are shapeless.

After combining components of two vectors to be added, it was found that the resultant vector has an x-component of -177 cm and
3241004551 [841]

The angle measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis is θ = 50.4°

<h3>How to get the angle correspondent to a vector?</h3>

Here we know that the vector is:

V = < -177 cm, -214 cm>

To get the correspondent angle for this vector, we can think that this is the hypotenuse of a right triangle, such that the y-component and x-component are the cathetus.

Then, to get the angle (measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis) is given by:

Tan(θ) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus)

Tan(θ) = (-214cm)/(-177 cm)

Using the inverse tangent function we get:

Atan(Tan(θ)) = Atan((-214cm)/(-177 cm))

θ = 50.4°

So the angle is 50.4°

What kind of wave exists when a musician plays a note on a trombone?
kykrilka [37]
The trombone is a wind musical instrument and as all musical instruments can produce a standing (or stationary) wave.

This kind of waves is the result of the composition of two waves that produces a pattern that looks like it is not moving but just vibrating. Some points of the wave look like they are not even vibrating, they just stand still, and they are called nodes. Other points of the wave vibrate from the maximum positive value to the maximum negative value and are called antinodes.
