Answer:

402 nm

Explanation:

First, we find the speed of light in this medium:

v = 0.701 * c

v = 0.701 * 3 * 10^8

v = 2.103 * 10^8 m/s

Speed of a wave is given as the product of wavelength and frequency:

v = λf

Where λ = wavelength

Wavelength, λ, becomes:

λ = v/f

The frequency of the light is 5.23 * 10^14 Hz, therefore, wavelength will be:

λ = (2.103 * 10^8) / (5.23 * 10^14)

λ = 4.02 * 10^(-7) m = 402 nm

The wavelength of the light is 402 nm.

If the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of planet x is double the value of earth's, how does planet x's mass compare t
love history [14]
There is not enough information given to answer with. The force of gravity at the planet's surface depends on the planet's radius as well as its mass. The planet could have exactly the same mass as Earth has. But if it's radius is only 71% of Earth's radius, then gravity on its surface will be twice as strong as gravity on Earth.

Which types of numbers does scientific notation best describe?
Travka [436]
The correct answer is
<span>c) very small and very large

Let's see this with a few examples:
1) if we have a very small number, such as
</span>0.0000000001
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using the scientific notation:
</span>1\cdot 10^{-10}
<span>2) Similarly, if we have a very large number:
</span>10000000000
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using again the scientific notation:
</span>1 \cdot 10^{10}<span>
</span>
