Answer:

A. $f=6.1475*10^{14}Hz$

B. $f=5.9642*10^{14}Hz$

Explanation:

The frequency has an inversely proportional relationship with the concept of wavelength, the greater the wavelength, the lower the frequency. For electromagnetic waves, the frequency is equal to the speed of light, divided by the wavelength.

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

A.

$f=\frac{3*10^8\frac{m}{s}}{488*10^{-9}m}\\\\f=6.1475*10^{14}Hz$

B.

$f=\frac{3*10^8\frac{m}{s}}{503*10^{-9}m}\\\\f=5.9642*10^{14}Hz$

On a frictionless horizontal air table, puck A (with mass 0.254 kg ) is moving toward puck B (with mass 0.367 kg ), which is ini

Answer:

$v_a=0.8176 m/s$

$\Delta K=0.07969 J - 0.0849 J = -0.00521 J$

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum of both pucks won't be changed regardless of their interaction if no external forces are acting on the system.

Being $m_a$ and $m_b$ the masses of pucks a and b respectively, the initial momentum of the system is

$M_1=m_av_a+m_bv_b$

Since b is initially at rest

$M_1=m_av_a$

After the collision and being $v'_a$ and $v'_b$ the respective velocities, the total momentum is

$M_2=m_av'_a+m_bv'_b$

Both momentums are equal, thus

$m_av_a=m_av'_a+m_bv'_b$

Solving for $v_a$

$v_a=\frac{m_av'_a+m_bv'_b}{m_a}$

$v_a=\frac{0.254Kg\times (-0.123 m/s)+0.367Kg (0.651m/s)}{0.254Kg}$

$v_a=0.8176 m/s$

The initial kinetic energy can be found as (provided puck b is at rest)

$K_1=\frac{1}{2}m_av_a^2$

$K_1=\frac{1}{2}(0.254Kg) (0.8176m/s)^2=0.0849 J$

The final kinetic energy is

$K_2=\frac{1}{2}m_av_a'^2+\frac{1}{2}m_bv_b'^2$

$K_2=\frac{1}{2}0.254Kg (-0.123m/s)^2+\frac{1}{2}0.367Kg (0.651m/s)^2=0.07969 J$

The change of kinetic energy is

$\Delta K=0.07969 J - 0.0849 J = -0.00521 J$
