What happens to the wavelength of a wave if you increase the frequency?
dezoksy [38]

The product of (wavelength) times (frequency) is always the same number ...
the speed of the wave in whatever material it's traveling through.  So if the
frequency is increased, then the wavelength must <em><u>de</u></em>crease by the same
factor, in order to keep the product the same.

Strontium 3890Sr has a half-life of 28.5 yr. It is chemically similar to calcium, enters the body through the food chain, and co
patriot [66]

Answer:

Thus the time taken is calculated as 387.69 years

Solution:

As per the question:

Half life of ^{3890}Sr\, t_{\frac{1}{2}} = 28.5 yrs

Now,

To calculate the time, t in which the 99.99% of the release in the reactor:

By using the formula:

\frac{N}{N_{o}} = (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}

where

N = No. of nuclei left after time t

N_{o} = No. of nuclei initially started with

\frac{N}{N_{o}} = 1\times 10^{- 4}

(Since, 100% - 99.99% = 0.01%)

Thus

1\times 10^{- 4} = (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{28.5}}}

Taking log on both the sides:

- 4 = \frac{t}{28.5}log\frac{1}{2}

t = \frac{-4\times 28.5}{log\frac{1}{2}}

t = 387.69 yrs

Newtown third law applies to blank of objects​
fomenos

Answer:

All

Explanation:

I'm not sure what you meant but Newton's third law which basically states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction applies to <em>all</em> objects. So I think the answer is all.

g A bowling ball with a mass of 3.86 kg and a radius of 0.161 m starts from rest at a height of 2.5 m and rolls down a 48.4 o sl
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

v=1.5m/s

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy gets transformed into translational and rotational kinetic energy, so we can write mgh=\frac{mv^2}{2}+\frac{I\omega^2}{2}. Since v=r\omega (the ball rolls without slipping) and for a solid sphere I=\frac{2mr^2}{5}, we have:

mgh=\frac{mv^2}{2}+\frac{2mr^2\omega^2}{2*5}=\frac{mv^2}{2}+\frac{mv^2}{5}=\frac{7mv^2}{10}

So our translational speed will be:

v=\sqrt{\frac{10gh}{7}}=\sqrt{\frac{10(9.8m/s^2)(0.161m)}{7}}=1.5m/s
