The energy of a wave will remain constant if which of the following changes are made to it is given below

Explanation:

1.In electromagnetic waves, energy is transferred through vibrations of electric and magnetic fields. In sound waves, energy is transferred through vibration of air particles or particles of a solid through which the sound travels. In water waves, energy is transferred through the vibration of the water particles.

2.First of all for light which is a electromagnetic wave c=frequency*wavelength. As the wavelength increases the frequency decreases. This can be physically understood as the increase in red shift of the light. Also energy =h*frequency,hence increasing wavelength decreases the energy carried by the photon.

3.Wave frequency is related to wave energy. the more energy in a wave, the higher its frequency. The lower the frequency is, the less energy in the wave.

If a system has 225 kcal of work done to it, and releases 5.00 × 102 kj of heat into its surroundings, what is the change in int
vovikov84 [41]

We can solve the problem by using the first law of thermodynamics:

\Delta U = Q-W

where

\Delta U is the change in internal energy of the system

Q is the heat absorbed by the system

W is the work done by the system on the surrounding


In this problem, the work done by the system is

W=-225 kcal=-941.4 kJ

with a negative sign because the work is done by the surrounding on the system, while the heat absorbed is

Q=-5 \cdot 10^2 kJ=-500 kJ

with a negative sign as well because it is released by the system.


Therefore, by using the initial equation, we find

\Delta U=Q-W=-500 kJ+941.4 kJ=441.4 kJ

Uranium has two naturally occurring isotopes. 238u has a natural abundance of 99.3% and 235u has an abundance of 0.7%. it is the
dmitriy555 [2]

The ration of the rms speed of 235uf6 to that of 238uf6 is 1.004.

The molecular mass of 235uf6 is 349, while that of 238uf6 is 352.

The rms speed is calculated as

v=√(3RT/m)

Thus the ratio rms speed of 235uf6 to 238uf6 is calculated as

r=√(352/349)=1.004

What is the acceleration of a race car if it has a mass of 1200kg and is moving with an engine force of 400N
meriva

Answer:

0.34 m/s^2

Explanation:

force=mass × acceleration

400 =1200 × acceleration

acceleration=400/1200

=0.34 m/s^2

What is the gravitational potential energy of a 65.7 kg person standing on the roof of a 135 meter building?
horrorfan [7]
For the purpose we will use the following equation for potential energy:
U = m * g * h
In the above equation, m represents the mass of the object, h represents the height of the object and g represents the gravitational field strength (9.8 N/kg on Earth).
When we plug values into the equation, we get following:
U= 65.7kg * 9.8 N/kg *135m = 86921.1 J = 86.92 kJ
