Answer:

4.13×10⁻⁷ m

Explanation:

Applying

v = λf................... Equation 1

Wherfe v = speed of light, λ = wavelength of light, f = frequency of light.

make λ the subject of the equation

λ = v/f....................... Equation 2

Note: Light is an electromagnetic wave, and all electromagnetic wave moves with thesame speed which is 3×10⁸ m/s.

From the question,

Given: f = 7.26×10¹⁴ Hz

Constant: v = 3×10⁸ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

λ = (3×10⁸)/(7.26×10¹⁴)

λ = 4.13×10⁻⁷ m

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

7,14545 mph and 3,1936 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed is calculated by dividing the displacement over time, then it is 26,2 miles/(3 2/3 hours), here 3 (2/3) hours is a mixed number, that represents 11/3 hours or 3,66 hours. Then the average speed is 7,14545 mph, now to turn this into meters per second, we notice as mentioned that 1 mile =1609 meters and 1 hour=3600 seconds. Then 7,14545 miles/hour* (1 hour/3600 seconds) * (1609 meters/1 mile)=3,1936 m/s

NASA is giving serious consideration to the concept of solar sailing. A solar sailcraft uses a large, low- mass sail and the ene
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

<em>d. The sail should be reflective because in this case the momentum transferred to the sail per unit area per unit time is larger than for absorbing sail, therefore the radiation pressure is larger for the reflective sail.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Let us take the momentum of a photon unit as u

we know that the rate of change of momentum is proportional to the force exerted.

For a absorbing surface, the photon is absorbed, therefore the final momentum is zero. From this we can say that

F = (u - 0)/t = u/t

for a unit time, the force is proportional to the momentum of the wave due to its energy density. Therefore,

F = u

For a reflecting surface, the momentum of the wave strikes the sail and changes direction. Since we know that the speed of light does not change, then the force is proportional to

F = (u - (-u))/t = 2u/t

just as the we did above, it becomes

F = 2u.

From this we can see that the force for a reflective sail is twice of that for an absorbing sail, and we know that the pressure is proportional to the force for a given area. From these, we conclude that <em>the sail should be reflective because in this case the momentum transferred to the sail per unit area per unit time is larger than for absorbing sail, therefore the radiation pressure is larger for the reflective sail.</em>

A buoy is anchored tho the oceanfloor. A large wave approaches the buoy. How will the buoy move as the wave goes by?
nadezda [96]

Answer:

The buoy will move upwards and downwards and well as left and right

Explanation:

As the wind is storing so had the capability to move the buoy in all directions as it is a light object despite being anchored down
