Answer:

2.83 m

Explanation:

The relationship between frequency and wavelength for an electromagnetic wave is given by

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}

where

\lambda is the wavelength

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

f is the frequency

For the FM radio waves in this problem, we have:

f_1=89 MHz=89\cdot 10^6 Hz is the minimum frequency, so the maximum wavelength is

\lambda_2=\frac{c}{f_1}=\frac{3\cdot 10^8}{89\cdot 10^6}=3.37 m

The maximum frequency is instead

f_2=106 MHz=106\cdot 10^6 Hz

Therefore, the minimum wavelength is

\lambda_1=\frac{c}{f_2}=\frac{3\cdot 10^8}{106\cdot 10^6}=2.83 m

So, the wavelength at the beginning of the range is 2.83 m.

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

a = 2.72 ms⁻²

32.83 s

Explanation:

By using the kinematic equations you get,

v² = u² +2as and v = u + at   where all terms in usual meaning

Using 1st equation,

89.3² = 0² + 2a×1465 ⇒ a = 2.72 ms⁻²

By 2nd equation,

89.3 = 0 + 2.72×t ⇒ t = 32.83 s

A woman steps in front of a child to keep him from running off. which term best describes this example? negative work positive w
lana [24]

Answer:

negative force

Explanation:

Here woman is applying the force to stop the child or to prevent him from running.

Here we know that the force applied by the woman is opposite to the motion of child but here the child is not displaced by this applied force but the child is only prevented his running.

So here the work done by the woman is zero as there is no displacement by this force.

But here we can say that the the force of woman is against the motion of child so here this force is opposite force and hence it is termed as negative force here.

so correct answer will be

negative force

A biker goes up hill with a constant speed of 10km/h. Then he goes downhill with a constant speed of 50km/h. What's his average
Sladkaya [172]

This is not as simple as it looks.  

His average speed is NOT (10km/hr + 50km/hr)/2 = 30 km/hr.

You have to use the definition of speed:

Speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance).

Let's say the distance up (and down) the hill is 'd' .

Then the time it takes to go up the hill is (d/10) hours.

And the time it takes to come down the hill is (d/50) hours.

Total distance = 2d km

Total time = (d/10) + (d/50) = (5d/50) + (d/50) = 6d/50

Speed = distance/time = 2d/(6d/50) = 100d/6d

<em>Speed = </em>100/6 = <em>16-2/3 km/hr</em>
