From the statement, the wavelength should be 1.6 cm * 1/4 = 0.4 cm. Then, we use the wave equation formula. The frequency is equal to the speed of light divided by the wavelength. First, let's use the SI units.

0.4 cm = 0.004 m

The speed of light is equal to 3 x 10^8 m/s

Frequency = 3 x 10^8 m/s ÷ 0.004 m
Frequency = 7.49 x 10^10 s^-1

There are 1,000,000 micro seconds in one second so multiple 136.8 by 1000000 and you'll get 136,800,000 Tera calculations per second.

A car of mass 1167 kg accelerates on a flat highway from 10 m/s to 28.0 m/s. How much work does the car's engine do on the car?
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Workdone = 465766038 Joules.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass = 1167

Initial velocity = 10m/s

Final velocity =28m/s

To find the workdone;

We know that from the workdone theorem, the workdone by an object or a body is directly proportional to the kinetic energy possessed by the object due to its motion.

Mathematically, it is given by the equation;

W = Kf - Ki

W = ½MVf² - ½MVi²

Substituting into the equation

W = ½(1167)*28² - ½(1167)*10²

W = ½ * 1361889* 784 - ½ * 1361889 * 100

W = 533860488 - 68094450

Workdone = 465766038 Joules.

How many electrons are in the third energy level?<br><br> 2<br> 8<br> 18<br> 20
Blababa [14]

Answer:

B)8

Explanation:

In the first energy level you can have, at most, 2. Every energy level after that wants to have 8 electrons. Valence electrons I believe.

Hope this helps, have a nice day! (^-^)

Consider a mechanical clutch that consists of two heavy disks that can engage or disengage. At the beginning disk 1 with mass m1
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

w = 4,786 rad / s ,  f = 0.76176 Hz

Explanation:

For this problem let's use the concept of angular momentum

       L = I w

The system is formed by the two discs, during the impact the system remains isolated, we have the forces are internal, this implies that the external torque is zero and the angular momentum is conserved

Initial Before sticking

      L₀ = 0 + I₂ w₂

Final after coupling

      L_{f} = (I₁ + I₂) w

The moments of inertia of a disk with an axis of rotation in its center are

      I = ½ M R²

How the moment is preserved

      L₀ = L_{f}

      I₂ w₂ = (I₁ + I₂) w

      w = w₂ I₂ / (I₁ + I₂)

Let's reduce the units to the SI System

      d₁ = 60 cm = 0.60 m

      d₂ = 40 cm = 0.40 m

      f₂ = 200 min-1 (1 min / 60 s) = 3.33 Hz

Angular velocity and frequency are related.

      w₂ = 2 π f₂

      w₂ = 2π 3.33

      w₂ = 20.94 rad / s

Let's replace

       w = w₂ (½ M₂ R₂²) / (½ M₁ R₁² + ½ M₂ R₂²)

       w = w₂ M₂ R₂² / (M₁ R₁² + M₂ R₂²)

Let's calculate

      w = 20.94 8 0.40² / (12 0.60² + 8 0.40²)

      w = 20.94 1.28 / 5.6

      w = 4,786 rad / s

Angular velocity and frequency are related.

      w = 2π f

      f = w / 2π

      f = 4.786 / 2π

      f = 0.76176 Hz
