be able to measure using the crest or trough of a single wave? A. the energy; It is only found in the crest or trough of a wave. B. the frequency; It is the distance between crests and troughs. C. the wavelength; It is measured by how fast the crest passes. D. the amplitude; It is measured by the center line of a wave to the crest or trough.

<u>Answer: </u>Option D: The amplitude: It is measured by the center line of a wave to the crest or trough.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Using the crest or trough of a single wave, wavelength, frequency, amplitude and energy can be measured.

The energy is measured using the amplitude and frequency of the wave. Hence, option A is incorrect.

The frequency is how fast the crest passes i.e. Number of oscillations per second. It is inversely proportional to the wavelength of the wave which is the distance between two crests or troughs. Hence, both the options B and C are incorrect.

The amplitude is the center line of a wave to the crest or trough. Hence, option D is correct. <u>Amplitude can be measured using the crest or trough of a single wave.</u>

An x-ray has a wavelength of 4.18 Å. Calculate the energy (in J) of one photon of this radiation. Enter your answer in scientifi
Damm [24]

Answer:

E = 4.75 x 10⁻¹⁶ J

Explanation:

given,

wavelength of the x-ray , λ = 4.18 Å

Energy of photon = ?

we know

E = \dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

where h is the planks constant

          c is the speed of light

h = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ m² kg / s

c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

now,

E = \dfrac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3 \times 10^8}{4.18\times 10^{-10}}

E = 4.75 x 10⁻¹⁶ J

hence, the energy of the photon is equal to E = 4.75 x 10⁻¹⁶ J

onsider 1000 mL of a 1.00 × 10-4 M solution of a certain acid HA that has a Ka value equal to 1.00 × 10-4. Water was added or re
solmaris [256]

Answer:

The volume of the final solution, V = 0.0305L

Explanation:

Number of moles = Concentration * volume

Concentration of HA = 1.00 * 10⁻⁴M

Volume of HA = 1000mL = 1 L

Number of moles of HA =  1.00 * 10⁻⁴ * 1

Number of moles of HA =  1.00 * 10⁻⁴ mols

Equation of reaction:

HA → H⁺  +  A⁻

If 1 mol of HA produces 1 mol of H⁺  and  A⁻, 1.00 * 10⁻⁴ mol of HA will produce 1.00 * 10⁻⁴ mol of  H⁺  and  A⁻.

Since only 16% dissociation occurs = 0.16

Number of moles of  H⁺ produced = 0.16 *  1.00 * 10⁻⁴

Number of moles of  H⁺ produced = 1.6 * 10⁻⁵mols

Number of moles of  A⁻ produced = 0.16 *  1.00 * 10⁻⁴

Number of moles of  A⁻ produced = 1.6 * 10⁻⁵mols

Since 16% of HA dissociated into  H⁺  and  A⁻, 84% of HA is left

Number of mols of HA left = 0.84 *  1.00 * 10⁻⁴

Number of mols of HA left =  8.4 * 10⁻⁵mols

Concentration = num of moles/volume

Let the volume of the final solution be V

Conc of HA = 8.4 * 10⁻⁵/V

Conc of H⁺ = 1.6 * 10⁻⁵/V

Conc of A⁻ =  1.6 * 10⁻⁵/V

To calculate the dissociation constant

k_{a} = [H^{+} ][A^{-} ]/[HA]

k_{a}= [1.6 * 10^{-5} /V][1.6 * 10^{-5} /V]/[8.4 * 10^{-5} /V]\\k_{a}= 3.05 * 10^{-6} /V\\k_{a} = 1.00 * 10^{-4}\\ 1.00 * 10^{-4} = 3.05 * 10^{-6} /V\\V= 3.05 * 10^{-6}/ 1.00 * 10^{-4}\\V=3.05 * 10^{-2}\\V=0.0305 L

A batter hits a ball at 25 m/a 37 degrees above the horizon. (Part A) how long is the ball in the air? (Part b) how far does it
katen-ka-za [31]

Explanation:

we know

v=u-gt

At max height v=0

uy=usin30

now,25sin37=gt

15.07/9.8=t

t=1.53s to reach max height now to come on ground it takes same time

so time taken t=3.07s

We know ,range=ucos37×t

=25cos37×3.07

max distance=61.3meter

A _________ engine operates using a three-sided metal rotor instead of the traditional piston-and-cylinder arrangement.
postnew [5]

That's a description of what makes the "Wankel engine" unique.

When it first came to the USA market, it came as the guts of a
new brand of car . . . the Mazda.  I don't know if some, or all, or
none of today's Mazdas still use the Wankel 'rotary' engine.
