When I went through with the math, the answer I came upon was: 
<span>6.67 X 10^14 </span>

<span>Here is how I did it: First of all we need to know the equation. </span>

<span>c=nu X lamda </span>
<span>(speed of light) = (frequency)(wavelength) </span>
<span>(3.0 X 10^8 m/s) = (frequency)(450nm) </span>

<span>We want the answer in meters so we need to convert 450nm to meters. </span>
<span>450nm= 4.5 X 10^ -7 m </span>
<span>(3.0 X 10^8 m/s) = (frequency)(4.5 X 10^ -7 m) </span>

<span>Divide the speed of light by the wavelength. </span>
<span>(3.0 X 10^8m/s) / (4.5 X 10^ -7m) =6.67 X 10^ 14 per second or s- </span>

<span>Answer: 6.67 X 10^14 s- hope this helps</span>

From Electromagnetic Waves,
Velocity  C = f *λ

Where C = Velocity in m/s. = 3 * 10^8 m/s.
            f = Frequency in Hertz     ( /s)
           λ = Wavelength in metres.

Wavelength of blue light = 446 nm = 446 nano metres = 446 * 10^-9 m.

f =  C / λ  = ( 3 *10^8) / (446 * 10^-9)    use your calculator.
               =  6.7265 * 10 ^ 14  Hertz.

If earth did not rotate how would air at the equator move?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
Heat rises, and it is warmer at the equator, so I think warm air would rise at the equator and move towards the cooler poles.

how fast will and in what direction will a 20kg object accelerate if one force pushes at a 30 degree angle and another pushes at
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

|a|=2.83\ m/s^2

\theta=75^o

Explanation:

<u>Net Force And Acceleration </u>

The Newton's second law relates the net force applied on an object of mass m and the acceleration it aquires by

\vec F_n=m\vec a

The net force is the vector sum of all forces. In this problem, we are not given the magnitude of each force, only their angles. For the sake of solving the problem and giving a good guide on how to proceed with similar problems, we'll assume both forces have equal magnitudes of F=40 N

The components of the first force are

\vec F_1=

\vec F_1=\ N

The components of the second force are

\vec F_2=

\vec F_2=\ N

The net force is

\vec F_n=

\vec F_n=\ N

The magnitude of the net force is

|F_n|=\sqrt{14.64^2+54.64^2}

|F_n|=\sqrt{3200}=56.57\ N

The acceleration has a magnitude of

\displaystyle |a|=\frac{|F_n|}{m}

\displaystyle |a|=\frac{56.57}{20}

|a|=2.83\ m/s^2

The direction of the acceleration is the same as the net force:

\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{54.64}{14.64}

\theta=75^o
