Answer:

27 days

Explanation:

Earth has only one natural satellite-the moon. The moon is about one-fourth the Earth's size. Moon rotates about its own axis as well as revolves about the Earth. Its revolution period around Earth is 27.32 days ( $27 \frac{1}{3}$ days) where as its rotation period is 27 days. Due to this synchronization of the two periods, only one side of the moon is always visible to us.

It lasts 29 1/2 days.
-the sidereal month- is the true period of the moon's revolution around Earth. It lasts 27 1/3 days.
-the difference of 2 days between the synodic and sidereal cycles is due to the Earth- moon system also moving in an orbit around the sun.

Delvig [45]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concept of Frequency based on speed and wavelength.

According to the definition the frequency can be expressed as

$f = \frac{v}{\lambda}$

Where,

v = Velocity

$\lambda =$ Wavelength

Our value are given by,

v = 345m/s

$\lambda = 63cm$

Replacing

$f = \frac{345}{0.63}$

$f = 547.61Hz$

Therefore the frequency of the tuning fork is 547.61Hz

find a magnitude of the force such that if the act at right angle there resultant is √10N but if the act of 50° the resultant is

Readme [11.4K]

Explanation:

Let magnitude of the two forces be x and y.

Resultant at right angle R1= √15N) and at

60 degrees be R2= √18N.

Now, R1 = √(x² + y²) = √15,

R2= √(x² + y² +2xycos50) = √18.

So x² + y² = 15,

and x² + y² + 1.29xy = 18,

therefore 1.29xy = 3,

y = 3/1.29x.

y = 2.33/x

Now, x2 + (2.33/x)2 = 15,

x² + 5.45/x² = 15

multiply through by x²

x⁴ + 5.45 = 15x²

x⁴ - 15x2 + 5.45 = 0

Now find the roots of the equation, and later y. The two values of x will correspond to the

magnitudes of the two vectors.

Good luck

The blackbody radation emmitted from a furnace peaks at a wavelength of 1.9 x 10^-6 m (0.0000019 m). what is the temperature ins

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Temperature, T = 1542.10 K

Explanation:

It is given that,

The black body radiation emitted from a furnace peaks at a wavelength of, $\lambda=1.9\times 10^{-6}\ m$

We need to find the temperature inside the furnace. The relationship between the temperature and the wavelength is given by Wein's law i.e.

$\lambda\propto \dfrac{1}{T}$

or

$\lambda=\dfrac{b}{T}$

b = Wein's displacement constant

$\lambda=\dfrac{2.93\times 10^{-3}}{T}$

$T=\dfrac{2.93\times 10^{-3}}{\lambda}$

$T=\dfrac{2.93\times 10^{-3}}{1.9\times 10^{-6}\ m}$

T = 1542.10 K

So, the temperature inside the furnace is 1542.10 K. Hence, this is the required solution.
