Light of a certain color has a wavelength of 4.8 x 10-7m. Determine the frequency and color of the light wave.
1 answer:
The frequency is and it is blue light
Explanation:
The relationship between the speed, the frequency and the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave is given by:
where
is the speed of light
f is the frequency of the wave
is its wavelength
In this problem, the wavelength of the wave is
Therefore, its frequency is:
The wavelength of this wave is
And by looking at the table of the wavelengths of the colors, we notice that this corresponds to the blue light, which has a range of wavelength of
[450 - 495] nm

Answer:
v = 14.32 m/s
Explanation:
According to the principle of conservation of linear momentum, both the momentum and kinetic energy of the system are conserved. Since the two balls are in the same direction of motion before collision, then;
+
= (
+
) v
0.035 × 12 + 0.120 × 15 = (0.035 + 0.120) v
0.420 + 1.800 = (0.155) v
2.22 = 0.155 v
⇒ v =
= 14.323
The velocity of the balls after collision is 14.32 m/s.
