How quickly a leaf grows is proportional how big [ie the surface area] the leaf is. If the area of the leaf grows from 2cm2 to 3

marusya05 [52]

Answer: 9 days

Explanation:

Step 1

Let the rate of Leaf growth <em>r</em> be defined as, $\frac{Increase in area}{time taken}$ = $\frac{A1 - A}{t}$

where <em>A</em> is initial area of the leaf, <em>A1</em> is the final area of the leaf and<em> t</em> is the time taken for the increase in Area.

Express the proportional relationship in equation.

Given that rate of leaf growth, r is proportional to the surface area of the leaf A. we have r ∝ A.

r = kA, where k is the rate constant.

therefore, k = $\frac{r}{A}$

when A = 2 $cm^{2}$ , A1 = 3

so k = $\frac{\frac{3 - 2}{3}}{2}$

= $\frac{1}{3}$ ÷ 2

= 0.33 ÷ 2

k = 0.167

After calculating the rate constant k, we then find the time t when A1 is 5 $cm^{2}$

we have r = k × A1 = $\frac{A1 - A}{t}$

so, 0.167 × 2 = $\frac{5 - 2}{t}$

0.33 = $\frac{3}{t}$ .

t = 3/0.33

Therefore, t = 9 days.

At rest, hydrogen has a spectral line at 116 nm. if this line is observed at 107 nm for the star sirius, how fast is sirius movi

Citrus2011 [14]

2.3275862×10¹²km/s fast is sirius moving in km/s.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

Hydrogen has a spectral line at = 116nm=116×10⁻⁹m

Line is observed at = 107 nm=107×10⁻⁹m

Now, from the Hubble's law

V= $(\Delta \lambda / \lambda)$ ×C

Where,

v is the velocity

Δλ = Change in wavelength = 116 - 107= 9nm=9×10⁻⁹m

λ = Actual wavelength=116nm=116×10⁻⁹m

C is the speed of the light=3×10⁸m/s

on substituting the respective values, we get

V=(9/116)×3×10⁸=23275862.069×10⁵m/s

V=2.3275862×10¹²km/s.

<h3>What is the wavelength?</h3>

A waveform signal's wavelength, which is the distance between two identical locations (adjacent crests) in the succeeding cycles, determines whether it is sent through space or via a wire. Typically, in wireless systems, this length is specified in meters (m), centimeters (cm), or millimeters (mm).

If wave A has twice the amplitude and three times the frequency as wave B, then the energy carried by wave A must be ____ times

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

4 times

Explanation:

As we know that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave,

Here, the amplitude of the wave A is twice as compared to B.

So, the energy of wave A is 4 times the energy of wave B.
