Answer:

Wavelength of radio wave = 4.96 meter (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of radio wave = 60,500,000 Hz

Velocity of radio waves = 300,000,000 m/s

Find:

Wavelength of radio wave

Computation:

Wavelength = Velocity / frequency

Wavelength of radio wave = Velocity of radio waves / Frequency of radio wave

Wavelength of radio wave = 300,000,000 / 60,500,000

Wavelength of radio wave = 4.9586

Wavelength of radio wave = 4.96 meter (Approx.)

A 52 kg and a 95 kg skydiver jump from an airplane at an altitude of 4750 m, both falling in the pike position. Assume all value
Scilla [17]

Answer: 52 kg skydiver: 9.09 m/s and 522.55 s

              95 kg skydiver: 12.3 m/s and 386.2 s

Explanation: <u>Drag</u> <u>Force</u> is an opposite force when an object is moving in a fluid.

For skydivers, when falling through the air, the forces acting on it are gravitational and drag forces. At a certain point, drag force equals gravitational force, which is constant on any part of the planet, producing a net force that is zero. Since there is no net force, there is no acceleration and, consequently, velocity is constant. When that happens, the person reached the <u>Terminal</u> <u>Velocity</u>.

Drag Force and Velocity are proportional to the squared speed. So, terminal velocity is given by:

F_{G}=F_{D}

mg=\frac{1}{2}C \rho Av_{T}^{2}

v_{T}=\sqrt{\frac{2mg}{\rho CA} }

where

m is mass in kg

g is acceleration due to gravitational force in m/s²

ρ is density of the fluid in kg/m³

C is drag coefficient

A is area of the object in the fluid in m²

Calculating:

The 52kg skydiver has terminal velocity of:

v_{T}=\sqrt{\frac{2(52)(9.8)}{(1.21)(0.7)(0.14)} }

v_{T}= 9.09

The 95kg skydiver's terminal velocity is

v_{T}=\sqrt{\frac{2(95)(9.8)}{(1.21)(0.7)(0.14)} }

v_{T}= 12.3

The 52 kg and 95kg skydivers' terminal velocity are 9.09m/s and 12.3m/s, respectively.

The time each one will reach the floor will be:

52 kg at 9.09 m/s:

t=\frac{4750}{9.09}

t = 522.5

95 kg at 12.3 m/s:

t=\frac{4750}{12.3}

t = 386.2

The 52 kg and 95kg skydivers' time to reach the floor are 522.5 s and 386.2 s, respectively.

A charge moves a distance of 1.8 cm in the direction of a uniform electric field having a magnitude of 214 N/C. The electrical p
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

 13.4 x 10 raise to power -19  C

Explanation:

. The distance moved by a charge in the direction of a uniform electric field is d= 1.8 cm =0.018 m

. The uniform electric field is  E = 214 N/M

, The decrease in electrical potential energy is   d(P.E) = 51.63 x 10 raise to power -19 J

Let the magnitude of the charge of the moving particle be q

which is given by the equation

d(P.E) =qEd

51.63 x 10 power -19 = q(214)(0.018)

51.63 x 10 power -19 =3.852q

by making q the formular,

q = 13.4 x 10 power -19 C

Please help! Will give brainliest. 10 points. Show work!
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

421.83 m.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Height (h) = 396.9 m

Initial velocity (u) = 46.87 m/s

Horizontal distance (s) =...?

First, we shall determine the time taken for the ball to get to the ground.

This can be calculated by doing the following:

t = √(2h/g)

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Height (h) = 396.9 m

Time (t) =.?

t = √(2h/g)

t = √(2 x 396.9 / 9.8)

t = √81

t = 9 secs.

Therefore, it took 9 secs fir the ball to get to the ground.

Finally, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the ball as illustrated below:

Time (t) = 9 secs.

Initial velocity (u) = 46.87 m/s

Horizontal distance (s) =...?

s = ut

s = 46.87 x 9

s = 421.83 m

Therefore, the horizontal distance travelled by the ball is 421.83 m

Describe the evolution of a pulsar over time, in particular how the rotation and pulse signal changes over time.
madam [21]

Answer:

As beams of particles and their associated energy are given off, the pulsar will lose energy slowly, which will decrease the rate of its rotation. The frequency of pulses would therefore decrease, so that fewer pulses are observed in a given time span. The strength of the pulse signal will also decrease so the pulses will become fainter. Eventually, the pulsar should rotate so slowly and have such a low emission of radiation that it would no longer be observable.

1. The illuminance on a surface is 6 lux and the surface is 4 meters from the light source. What is the intensity of the source?
Crank

<u>Answer</u>

1) A. 96 Candelas

2) A. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce upright images.

3) C. 5 meters


<u>Explanation</u>

Q1

The formula for calculation the luminous intensity is;

Luminous intensity = illuminance × square radius

Lv = Ev × r²

= 6 × 4²

= 6 × 16

= 96 Candelabra

Q2

For converging lenses, an upright image is formed when the object is between the lens and the principal focus while a diverging lens always forms and upright image.

A. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce upright images.

Q3

Luminous intensity = illuminance × square radius

square radius = Luminous intensity/ illuminance

r² = 100/4

= 25

r = √25

= 5 m
