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.

A 2.43ug particle moves at 1.97 x 108 m/s. What is its momentum?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

0.48 kgm/s

Explanation:

m = mass of the particle = 2.43 μg = 2.43 x 10⁻⁶ x 10⁻³ kg = 2.43 x 10⁻⁹ kg

v  = velocity of the particle = 1.97 x 10⁸ m/s

p = momentum of the particle

momentum of the particle is given as

p = m v

inserting the values

p = (2.43\times 10^{-9})(1.97\times 10^{8})

p = 0.48 kgm/s

Ethylene glycol, the primary ingredient in antifreeze, has the chemical formula C2H6O2. The radiator fluid used in most cars is
disa [49]

Answer:

-30 °C

Explanation:

First, we have to calculate the molality (m) of the solution. If the solution is 50% C₂H₆O₂ by mass. It means that in 100 g of solution, the are 50 g of solute (C₂H₆O₂) and 50 g of solvent (water).

The molar mass of C₂H₆O₂ is 62.07 g/mol. The moles of solute are:

50 g × (1 mol / 62.07 g) = 0.81 mol

The mass of the solvent is 50 g = 0.050 kg.

The molality is:

m = 0.81 mol / 0.050 kg = 16 m

The freezing-point depression (ΔT) can be calculated using the following expression.

ΔT = Kf × m = (1.86 °C/m) × 16 m = 30 °C

where,

Kf: freezing-point constant

The normal freezing point for water is 0°C. The freezing point of the radiator fluid is:

0°C - 30°C = -30 °C

A 2.3 m long wire weighing 0.075 N/m is suspended directly above an infinitely straight wire. The top wire carries a current of
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnetic field near current carrying wire

= \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi} \frac{2i}{r}

i is current , r is distance from wire

B =  10⁻⁷ x \frac{2\times49}{r}

force on second wire per unit length

B I L , I is current in second wire , L is length of wire

=  10⁻⁷ x \frac{2\times49}{r} x 33 x 1

= 3234 x \frac{10^{-7}}{r}

This should balance weight of second wire per unit length

3234 x \frac{10^{-7}}{r} = .075

r = \frac{3234}{.075} x 10⁻⁷

= .0043 m

= .43 cm .

What is the mass of a rock lifted 2 meters off the ground that has 196 J of potential energy?
eimsori [14]

Answer:

10kg

Explanation:

Let PE=potential energy

PE=196J

g(gravitational force)=9.8m/s^2

h(change in height)=2m

m=?

PE=m*g*(change in h)

196=m*9.8*2

m=10kg
