Longer wavelengths will have frequencies, and shorter wavelengths will have frequencies.

1 answer:

3 0

Within a single medium, the product of (wavelength) x (frequency)
is always the same number, for all waves. (It's the wave-speed.)

This means that longer wavelengths must have lower frequencies,
and shorter wavelengths must have higher frequencies, in order for
the product to always come out to be the same.

mash [69]

Answer:

4000 km

Explanation:

as we know velocity of electromagnetic wave is c

$c = 3 * 10^8 m/s$

frequency given (f) = 76 Hz

wavelength ?

using

$c =f$ λ

λ = $\frac{c}{f}$

λ = $\frac{3 * 10^8}{76}$ ≈4000 km

so final answer λ = 4000km

What quantity of heat is needed to convert 1 kg of ice at -13 degrees C to steam at 100 degrees C?

Effectus [21]

Answer:

Heat energy needed = 3036.17 kJ

Explanation:

We have

heat of fusion of water = 334 J/g

heat of vaporization of water = 2257 J/g

specific heat of ice = 2.09 J/g·°C

specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g·°C

specific heat of steam = 2.09 J/g·°C

Here wee need to convert 1 kg ice from -13°C to vapor at 100°C

First the ice changes to -13°C from 0°C , then it changes to water, then its temperature increases from 0°C to 100°C, then it changes to steam.

Mass of water = 1000 g

Heat energy required to change ice temperature from -13°C to 0°C

H₁ = mcΔT = 1000 x 2.09 x 13 = 27.17 kJ

Heat energy required to change ice from 0°C to water at 0°C

H₂ = mL = 1000 x 334 = 334 kJ

Heat energy required to change water temperature from 0°C to 100°C

H₃ = mcΔT = 1000 x 4.18 x 100 = 418 kJ

Heat energy required to change water from 100°C to steam at 100°C

H₄ = mL = 1000 x 2257 = 2257 kJ

Total heat energy required

H = H₁ + H₂ + H₃ + H₄ = 27.17 + 334 + 418 +2257 = 3036.17 kJ

Heat energy needed = 3036.17 kJ

allsm [11]

This question is incomplete, the complete question;

you make an interferometer using 50-50 beam splitter and two mirrors, one being a perfect mirror and one which does not reflect all light. The wavelength of the 9 mW incident laser is 400 nm.

Because the top mirror is not perfectly reflective (it reflects 90% of the photons, allowing 10% of them to go through), the power measured at the detector when only the vertical arm is blocked is 2.25 mW, while the power measured at the detector when only the horizontal arm is blocked is only 2.025 mW. Assume initially the intensity is at its maximum. How much would we need to translate the perfect mirror to the right to get a minimum intensity at detector, and what is that minimum intensity

Options;

a) 200 nm; 0.9 mW

b) 100 nm, 0.0059 mW

c) 200 nm; 0 mW

d) 100 nm; 0.9 mW

e) 200 nm; 0.0059 mW

Answer:

the amount we need to translate the perfect mirror to the right to get a minimum intensity at detector and the minimum intensity are;

100 nm; 0.0059 mW

Option b) 100 nm, 0.0059 mW is the correct answer

Explanation:

Given that the instrument here is an interferometer.

Maximum intensity is obtained when the two waves are exactly in phase.

that is the peaks (crusts and troughs) and nodes (zero value points) of the two waves will be at the exact same point when the wave falls on the detector.

The phase factor of this point is taken as ∅ = 0

Now, to get a minimum point, the phase difference between the two waves should be should be ∅ = π

This corresponds to a path difference between the two waves as half of the wavelength. λ/2

The light gets reflected from the mirror.

Hence, when we move the mirror by a length l, the extra/less path the light has to travel is 2l (light is going and coming back)

hence, to get a path difference of λ/2 the mirror should move half of this distance only

so, the mirror should move;

$l$ = λ/4

here, wavelength is 400nm

the length moved by the mirror = 400/4 = 100 nm

The intensity is given by the equation;

$l$ = $l$ 1 + $l$ 2 + 2√ $l$ 1 $l$ 2cos(∅)

where

$l$ 1 = 2.25 mW

$l$ 2 = 2.025 mW

∅ = π

so we substitute

$l$ = 2.25 + 2.025 - 2√(2.25 × 2.025)

$l$ = 4.275 - 4.26907

$l$ = 0.0059

Therefore; the amount we need to translate the perfect mirror to the right to get a minimum intensity at detector and the minimum intensity are;

100 nm; 0.0059 mW

Option b) 100 nm, 0.0059 mW is the correct answer

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

2.72*10-3 Joules

Explanation:

From Newton's second law of motion

F=ma

$\tau=I*\alpha$

given

$\tau= 0.11Nm\\\\I=0.034kgm^2\\\\t= 8s\\\\\alpha=?$

$\alpha =0.11/0.034\\\\\alpha=3.23 rad/s^2$

the angular velocity is

$\omega = \alpha/t\\\\\omega =3.23/8\\\\\omega =0.4 rad/s$

$KE= 1/2*I* \omega^2$

$KE=1/2*0.034*0.4^2\\\\KE=1/2*0.034*0.16\\\\KE=0.00272\\\\KE=2.72*10^-3J$
