For any electromagnetic wave, the relationship between frequency and wavelength is given by
\lambda =  \frac{c}{f}
where
\lambda is the wavelength
c is the speed of light (the speed of the electromagnetic wave)
f is the frequency

For the X-rays in our problem, the frequency is f=1.0 \cdot 10^{19}Hz, while the speed of light is c=3.0 \cdot 10^8 m/s, so the wavelength of this radiation is
\lambda= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.0 \cdot 10^{19} Hz} =3 \cdot 10^{-11} m

6. If a drag racer wins the final round of herrace by going an average speed of 320 m/sin 4.5 seconds, what distance did he cove
Ivan

We want to calculate the distance covered by the drag racer. Recall, the formula for calculating distance is expressed as

Distance = speed x time

From the information given,

speed = 320 m/s

time = 4.5 s

By substituting these values into the formula, we have

Distance = 320 m/s x 4.5s

s cancels out. We are left with m. Thus,

Distance = 1440m

Maurinko [17]

This question is not complete.

The complete question is as follows:

One problem for humans living in outer space is that they are apparently weightless. One way around this problem is to design a space station that spins about its center at a constant rate. This creates “artificial gravity” at the outside rim of the station. (a) If the diameter of the space station is 800 m, how many revolutions per minute are needed for the “artificial gravity” acceleration to be 9.80m/s2?

Explanation:

a. Using the expression;

T = 2π√R/g

where R = radius of the space = diameter/2

R = 800/2 = 400m

g= acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

1/T = number of revolutions per second

T = 2π√R/g

T = 2 x 3.14 x √400/9.8

T = 6.28 x 6.39 = 40.13

1/T = 1/40.13 = 0.025 x 60 = 1.5 revolution/minute

Which part of an atom makes up most of its volume ?
alexandr1967 [171]
Remember that like charges repel each other. That is, positive repels positive and negative repels negative. Similar to how the north poles of magnets repel each other and south poles repel. However, at the atomic scale, protons, which have positive charge, are more influenced by the "Strong Force," which binds them close together. If they were to be separated ever so slightly, then the electromagnetic force would take over and they would repel each other like you'd expect. 

Neutrons are also held together via the Strong Force, but don't have a charge so when separated, don't have an electromagnetic force pushing them away from each other.

However, electrons act differently. There is no "Strong Force" just the electromagnetic force. So, they keep a great distance from each other. 

So in an atom, protons and neutrons stay close to each other, taking up little volume, while electrons take up a lot of volume.

BTW, the reason why electrons and protons act differently when they are close together is because protons are made up of smaller particles the carry this Strong Force. For electrons, there is no smaller constituent. And therefore, all you have is the electromagnetic force to influence it. That's it.

Hope that helps.
