Answer : The frequency of the wave is, 4.285\times 10^{14}s^{-1}

Solution : Given,

Speed of light = 3.0\times 10^{8}m/s

Wavelength of light = 7.0\times 10^{-7}m

Formula used :

\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}

\nu = frequency of light

\lambda = wavelength of light

c = speed of light

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the frequency of light.

\nu=\frac{3\times 10^8m/s}{7\times 10^{-7}m}=4.285\times 10^{14}s^{-1}

Therefore, the frequency of the wave is, 4.285\times 10^{14}s^{-1}

Use the drop-down menus to complete each statement.
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The amount of matter in an object is its  mass

An action that has the ability to change an object's state of motion is  a force

The rate at which velocity changes over time is acceleration

Explanation:

- Mass is a scalar quantity that gives a measure of the amount of matter contained in an object/substance. The SI unit of the mass is the kilogram (kg). Mass is an intrinsec property of an object, that means that it does not change when the object is moved in another location.

- A force is a vector quantity, that indicates an action exerted on an object that changes the state of motion of the object. It is measured in Newtons (N). According to Newton's second law, the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force exerted on the object divided by its mass:

a=\frac{F}{m}

- Acceleration is a vector quantity, which is equal to the ratio between the change in velocity of an object and the time interval taken for that change to occur. It is measured in meters per second squared (m/s^2). Mathematically, it is defined as

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

A student is about to sled down a hill. He stands on a hill which is 30 meters tall and he weighs 40kg what is his GPE
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

11760J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of hill  = 30m

Weight  = 40kg

Unknown:

Gravitational potential energy  = ?

Solution:

To find the gravitational potential energy, it is the energy due to the position of a body;

     G.PE  = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

      G.PE = 40 x 9.8 x 30  = 11760J

A car speeds up from 13 m/s to 23 m/s in 30 seconds. What is the acceleration of the car?
ra1l [238]
Well, <span>v = u + a×t is the equation.</span>
<span>
v: final velocity, which is 23 m/s in this equation.</span>
<span>u: initialo velocity = 13 m/s </span>
<span>a: acceleration = ? </span>
<span>t: time = 30s 
</span>
Your equation would be...

<span>23 = 13 + a×30 </span>
<span>a = (23 - 13) / 30 </span>
<span>a = 1 / 3 </span>
<span>a = 0.333 m/s</span>

A delivery man starts at the post office, drives 40 km north, then 20 km west, then 60 km northeast, and finally 50 km north to
Vesnalui [34]



assuming north-south along the Y-axis and east-west along the X-axis

X = total X-displacement

from the graph , total displacement along X-direction is given as

X = 0 - 20 + 60 Cos45 + 0

X = 42.42 - 20

X = 22.42 m


Y = total Y- displacement

from the graph , total displacement along Y-direction is given as

Y = 40 + 0  + 60 Sin45 + 50

Y = 90 + 42.42

Y = 132.42 m

magnitude of the net displacement vector using Pythagorean theorem is given as

magnitude : Sqrt(X² + Y²) = Sqrt(22.42² + 132.42²) = 134.31 m

Direction : tan⁻¹(Y/X) = tan⁻¹(132.42/22.42) = 80.4 deg north of east
