A beam of light has a wavelength of 4.5 x10^-7 meter in a vacuum. the frequency of this light is

1 answer:

3 0

The basic relationship between frequency and wavelength for light (which is an electromagnetic wave) is
$c= f \lambda$
where c is the speed of light, f the frequency and $\lambda$ the wavelength of the wave.
Using $\lambda=4.5 \cdot 10^{-7} m$ and $c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s$ , we can find the value of the frequency:
$f= \frac{c}{\lambda}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{4.5 \cdot 10^{-7} m}=6.7 \cdot 10^{14} Hz$

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Either heat added or mechanical work done.

Explanation:

Since he found stirring rod on the desk and a cigarette lighter. This means that the beaker was probably either heated with the aid of fire from the lighter.

Also, the stirring rod could have been used to stir the water which will increase the kinetic energy which also means an increase in temperature.

Thus, it's either heat was added or mechanical work was done as a result of stirring.

A dart hits a dartboard and stops in 0.060 s. The net force on the dart is 14 N during the collision.

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

The change of momentum of the dart is 0.84 Nw.s

Explanation:

Impulse and change of momentum

The change in momentum of an object is its mass times the change in its velocity:

$\Delta p=m\Delta v=m(v_2-v_1)$

The change in the momentum can also be found by considering the force acting on it. If a force F acts for a time Δt, the change of momentum is given by:

$\Delta p=F.\Delta t$

The dart hits a dashboard with a net force of 14 N during the collision and stops in 0.06 seconds. The change of momentum is:

$\Delta p=14*0.06=0.84$

The change of momentum of the dart is 0.84 Nw.s

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Exploratory

Explanation:

Focus groups

It is a small group of 8-12 respondents guided by a moderator through a thorough debate on a specific subject or idea.It's great for generation of ideas, brainstorming, insight into motives, attitudes, and perceptions. it can show likes, dislikes,emotional requirements and prejudices.

Exploratory methods are used to gain initial insights that could pave the way for further investigation.

Some of the exploratory methods are focus groups, Key informant,case studies,secondary data and observational data.
