The frequency of light wave is 0.6*10^15 Hz.

The relation between the speed of light, frequency, and wavelength is given as

c=λν

Plugging the values in the above equation

3*10^8=5*10^(-7)*ν

ν=0.6*10^15 Hz.

Therefore the frequency of the light wave is 0.6*10^15 Hz.

A spherical balloon has a radius of 7.40 m and is filled with helium. Part A How large a cargo can it lift, assuming that the sk

malfutka [58]

Answer:

The mass of the cargo is $M = 188.43 \ kg$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The radius of the spherical balloon is $r = 7.40 \ m$

The mass of the balloon is $m = 990\ kg$

The volume of the spherical balloon is mathematically represented as

$V = \frac{4}{3} * \pi r^3$

substituting values

$V = \frac{4}{3} * 3.142 *(7.40)^3$

$V = 1697.6 \ m^3$

The total mass the balloon can lift is mathematically represented as

$m = V (\rho_h - \rho_a)$

where $\rho_h$ is the density of helium with a value of

$\rho_h = 0.179 \ kg /m^3$

and $\rho_a$ is the density of air with a value of

$\rho_ a = 1.29 \ kg / m^3$

substituting values

$m = 1697.6 ( 1.29 - 0.179)$

$m = 1886.0 \ kg$

Now the mass of the cargo is mathematically evaluated as

$M = 1886.0 - 1697.6$

$M = 188.43 \ kg$

There is strong evidence that Europa, a satellite of Jupiter, has a liquid ocean beneath its icy surface. Many scientists think

dangina [55]

Answer:

4.44 rpm

Explanation:

$\omega$ = Angular speed

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

r = Radius of Europa = $\frac{3138000}{2}\ m$

R = Radius of arm = 6 m

The acceleration due to gravity is given by

$g=\frac{GM}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 4.8\times 10^{22}}{\left(\frac{3138000}{2}\right)^2}\\\Rightarrow g=1.3\ m/s^2$

Here the centripetal acceleration of the arm and acceleration due to gravity are equal

$a_c=\omega^2R$

$a_c=g\\\Rightarrow \omega^2R=1.3\\\Rightarrow \omega^2\times 6=1.3\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\frac{1.3}{6}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=0.46547\ rad/s$

Converting to rpm

$1\ rad/s=\frac{60}{2\pi}\ rpm$

$0.46547\ rad/s=0.46547\times \frac{60}{2\pi}\ rpm=4.44\ rpm$

The angular speed of the arm is 4.44 rpm

In an Atwood's machine, one block has a mass of 602.0 g, and the other a mass of 717.0 g. The pulley, which is mounted in horizo

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The acceleration of the both masses is 0.0244 m/s².

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of one block = 602.0 g

Mass of other block = 717.0 g

Radius = 1.70 cm

Height = 60.6 cm

Time = 7.00 s

Suppose we find the magnitude of the acceleration of the 602.0-g block

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using equation of motion

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

Where, s = distance

t = time

a = acceleration

Put the value into the formula

$60.0\times10^{-2}=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times a\times(7.00)^2$

$a=\dfrac{60.0\times10^{-2}\times2}{(7.00)^2}$

$a=0.0244\ m/s^2$

Hence, The acceleration of the both masses is 0.0244 m/s².
