What are the basic si units for the wavelength of light?

Physics
1 answer:
noname [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Meter (m)

Explanation:

The wavelenght of a light wave is a measure of the distance between two successive crests (or two successive troughs) of a light wave.

Since the SI units for the distance is the meter (m), then the SI unit for the wavelength is also the meter (m).

Wavelength is related to the frequency of the light wave by:

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}

where

c is the speed of light

f is the frequency of the light

If a train (travelling from Albuquerque to Atlanta) is moving 33.9 meters per second when it accelerates at -2.02 m/s^2 for 1.01
maxonik [38]

Answer:

The final velocity is 31.86 m/s.

Explanation:

The final velocity can be found using the following equation:

V_{f} = V_{0} + at

Where:

V_{f} is the final velocity =?

V_{0} is the initial velocity = 33.9 m/s

a is the acceleration = -2.02 m/s²

t is the time = 1.01 s

V_{f} = V_{0} + at = 33.9 m/s + (-2.02 m/s^{2})*1.01 s = 31.86 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity is 31.86 m/s.

I hope it helps you!

Coulomb is a very large unit for practical use. Justify your answer if 10^10 electrons are transferred from a body/second
zlopas [31]
Given:

10^10 electrons per second

To justify that coulomb is a very large unit for practical use, we need to convert the quantity of electron given to Coulombs:

From literature, 

1 Coulomb is equivalent to 6.242×10^18 electrons<span>.

So,

= 10^10 electrons * (1 coulomb/</span><span>6.242×10^18</span> electrons) / second
<span>= 1.602 x 10^-9 coulumbs

This value is too small to be used in an actual setting.

What type of relationship exists between acceleration and mass?
likoan [24]
Here, you can derive that by numerical method, as follows:
F = m.a
m = F/a

So, here we can see when we decrease one, other increase by same effect; we can say they are "Indirectly Proportional" to each other!

Hope this helps!
