Answer:

Explanation:

Formula and givens

  • λ = c / f
  • λ is the wavelength
  • c = the speed of light
  • f = the frequency
  • c = 3*10^8
  • f = 7.89 * 10^14

λ = ?

Solution

λ = 3*10^8 / 7.89*10^14

λ = 3*10^8/7.89*10^14

λ = 2.36 * 10^7

λ = 236 nanometers. What you use as your solution depends on what what you have been taught.

In t-ball, young players use a bat to hit a stationary ball off a stand. The 140 g ball has about the same mass as a baseball, b
fomenos

Question is missing. Found on google:

<em>"Part A What is the acceleration of the ball? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. </em>

<em>Part B </em>

<em>What is the net force on the ball during the hit?  </em>

<em>Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units."</em>

Solution:

A) 6000 m/s^2

The acceleration of the ball is given by

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v = 12 m/s is the final velocity

u = 0 is the initial velocity (the ball is stationary)

t = 2.0 ms = 0.002 s is the time of contact

Substituting,

a=\frac{12-0}{0.002}=6.0 \cdot 10^3 m/s^2

B) 8.4\cdot 10^2 N

The force on the ball can be found by using Newton's second law:

F=ma

where

m = 140 g = 0.14 kg is the mass of the ball

a=6.0\cdot 10^3 m/s^2 is the acceleration

Substituting,

F=(0.14)(6.0\cdot 10^3)=8.4\cdot 10^2 N

Two truckers are traveling directly away from each other at the same speed. If one trucker sounds her horn at a frequency of 221
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

v = 8.8 m /s

Explanation:

For listener and source going away from each other the formula of Doppler effect is as follows

\frac{f}{f_0} = \frac{V-v}{V+v}

V is velocity of sound , v is velocity of listner and source of sound

f₀ is apparent frequency and f is real frequency

V = 343 , v = ? ,f = 210 , f₀ = 221

Put these value in the relation above

[tex]\frac{210}{221} = \frac{343-v}{343+v}[/tex]

v = 8.8 m /s

what happens when light travels from one medium to another with a different index of refraction at a zero degree angle of incide
zaharov [31]

Answer:

No Refraction takes places

Explanation:

When light travels from one medium to another at an angle of incidence 0 degree then no refraction takes place .

It is because according to Refraction law

                    n_{i}sini = n_{r}sinr

where n_{i} ,n_{r} are the refractive index of medium of incidence and medium of refraction .

When i = 0 , left side of the equation becomes 0 and thus r (angle of refraction) must be zero. So No refraction takes place
