Answer:

1.909 m

Explanation:

Length of fence = 12 m

r = Radius of circle made by the provided fence

Cirumference of a circle is given by

C=2\pi r

The circumference of the circle will be equal to the length of the fence

2\pi r=12

\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{12}{2\pi}

\\\Rightarrow r=1.909\ m

The radius of the fence is 1.909 m

What is the frequency of an x- ray if the wavelength is 4.5 E - 10m?
AnnZ [28]
V (speed) = F (frequency) x Wavelength
If we rearrange the formula, making frequency the subject;
F (frequency) = Speed ÷ Wavelength
F = 300,000 m\s x 4.5 e -10m
F = 0.08810409956 Hz

The latent heat of fusion for Aluminium is 3.97 x 105. How much energy would be required to melt 0.75 kg of it?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

E = 2.9775\times10^5 J

Explanation:

Given:  The latent heat of fusion for Aluminum is L = 3.97\times10^5  J/Kg

mass to be malted m = 0.75 Kg

Energy require to melt E = mL

E = 3.97\times10^5\times0.75 = 2.9775\times10^5 J

Therefore, energy required to melt 0.75 Kg aluminum

E = 2.9775\times10^5 J
