REY [17]4 years ago

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.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

51.94°

Explanation:

I_0 = Unpolarized light

I_2 = Light after passing though second filter = 0.19I_0

Polarized light passing through first filter

I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}

Polarized light passing through second filter

I_2=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow 0.19I_0=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow cos^2\theta=\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}\\\Rightarrow cos\theta=\sqrt{\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{0.19\times 2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{0.38}\\\Rightarrow \theta=51.94^{\circ}

The angle between the two filters is 51.94°

If a refrigerator is a heat pump that follows the first law of thermodynamics, how much heat was removed from food inside of the
Serjik [45]
The first law of thermodynamics states the conservation of energy and heat where the total energy in an isolated system may be transformed into another, but never created or destroyed. If 314 J of energy was released to the room, then also 314 J of energy was also removed from food in that refrigerator assuming it is an isolated system. <span>

JulsSmile [24]

The moon orbits quite fast: it moves about 0.5 degrees per hour in the sky. In 24 hours it moves 13 degrees. The moon's observed motion eastward results from its physical motion of the moon along its orbit around the Earth. so I think its A .
