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:
The angular velocity is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of wooden gate is
The length of side is L = 2 m
The mass of the raven is
The initial speed of the raven is
The final speed of the raven is
From the law of conservation of angular momentum we express this question mathematically as
Total initial angular momentum of both the Raven and the Gate = The Final angular momentum of both the Raven and the Gate
The initial angular momentum of the Raven is
Note: the length is half because the Raven hit the gate at the mid point
The initial angular momentum of the Gate is zero
Note: This above is the generally formula for angular momentum of square objects
The final angular velocity of the Raven is
The final angular velocity of the Gate is
Substituting this formula
Where is the angular velocity
Substituting value
