REY [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: 25Hz

Explanation:

Given that:

Wavelength (λ) = 0.4m (the distance between the peaks of a wave is known as wavelength)

Frequency F = ?

Speed of wave V = 10 m/s

The wave frequency is the number of cycles which the wave complete in one second. It is measured in hertz, and represented by the symbol F

So, apply the formula V = F λ

10m/s = F x 0.4m

F = 10m/s / 0.4m

F = 25Hz

Thus, the frequency of the wave is 25 Hertz.

Why does a lorry travelling at 30mph have more kinetic energy than a car travelling at the same velocity?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

Because it has more mass

Explanation:

To understand this, think about the equation of kinetic energy

KE = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

Kinetic energy depends on both the velocity (v) as well as the mass (m).

Because a lorry is bigger and heavier than a car, it will have more mass. With more mass, at the same velocity the lorry with have more kinetic energy.

Nearly all liquids and solids are nearly opaque to radiation at nearly all wavelengths. why is that
anastassius [24]
As radiation enters a solid or liquid, the light waves are absorbed and reflected by the atoms. the resulting reflection from an atom can be in any direction and is random. you can understand opacity in terms of the scattering of radiation. The more opaque, the more scattering.

(The truth is far more complicated than this, check out Richard Feynmans lectures on "Quantum Electro Dynamics" to learn the reality of it. )

Question 5 (1 point)
Tom [10]

Answer: 18000 coulombs

Explanation:

Given that:

Current, I = 5.0A

Electric charge Q = ?

Time, T = 1 hour

(The SI unit of time is seconds. So, covert 1.0 hour to seconds)

If 1 hour = 60 minutes and 60 seconds = 1 minute

Then, 1.0 hour = (60 x 60)

= 3600 seconds

Since electric charge, Q = current x time

i.e Q = I x T

Q = 5.0 A x 3600 seconds

Q = 18000 coulombs

Thus, 18000 coulombs of charge flows through the lamp in this time.
