Infrared radiation from young stars can pass through the heavy dust clouds surrounding them, allowing astronomers here on Earth

to study the earliest stages of star formation, before a star begins to emit visible light. Suppose an infrared telescope is tuned to detect infrared radiation with a frequency of 4.39 THz. Calculate the wavelength of the infrared radiation.

Answer:

\lambda=6.83\times 10^{-5}\ m

Explanation:

Given that,

An infrared telescope is tuned to detect infrared radiation with a frequency of 4.39 THz.

We know that,

1 THz = 10¹² Hz

So,

f = 4.39 × 10¹² Hz

We need to find the wavelength of the infrared radiation.

We know that,

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{4.39\times 10^{12}}\\\\=6.83\times 10^{-5}\ m

So, the wavelength of the infrared radiation is 6.83\times 10^{-5}\ m.

Answer:
Speed of the wave is 7.87 m/s.
Explanation:
It is given that, tapping the surface of a pan
of water generates 17.5 waves per second
We know that the number of waves per
second is called the frequency of a wave.
So, f= 17.5 HZ
Wavelength of each wave,
A = 45 cm = 0.45 m
Speed of the wave is given by:
175 × 0.45
V= 7.87 m/s
So, the speed of the wave is 7.87 m/s
Hence, this is the required solution.

Benzene is a starting material in the synthesis of nylon fibers and polystyrene (styrofoam). Its specific heat capacity is 1.74
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer: 62.7^0C

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

Q = Heat absorbed= 16.7 kJ = 16700 J  (1kJ=1000J)

m= mass of benzene = 225 g

c = specific heat capacity = 1.74 J/gK

Initial temperature of the water = T_i = 20.0°C  = 293 k  0^0C=273K

Final temperature of the water = T_f  = ?

Change in temperature ,\Delta T=T_f-T_i

Putting in the values, we get:

16700=225\times 1.74\times (T_f-293)

T_f=335.6K=62.7^0C

The  final temperature will be 62.7^0C

You are observing the radiation from a distant active galaxy and you notice that the amplitude of the signal varies in strength
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Period of the signal.

Explanation:

So, this question is all about a concept in physics or astronomy which is called or known as Radiation Astronomy and Galactic Nuclei that are active. This concept talks most about Quasars; a powerful radiating object which derives its power from black holes.

When You take a look at Quasars, we get the to know that the more you think you can see, the more they move away from us.

Thus, when "You are observing the radiation from a distant active galaxy and you notice that the amplitude of the signal varies in strength regularly over a certain period. The maximum possible size for the source of this radiation can now be calculated from the "PERIOD OF THE SIGNAL.

NB: not the amplitude but the period.
