Answer:

0.25 m

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillations of the electric and the magnetic field, oscillating in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave.

All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum always at the same speed, the speed of light, whose value is:

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s

Microwave is an example of electromagnetic waves.

The relationship between wavelength and frequency for an electromagnetic wave is:

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}

where

\lambda is the wavelength

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s  is the speed of light

f is the frequency

For the microwave in this problem,

f=1.2\cdot 10^9 Hz

So its wavelength is

\lambda=\frac{3.0\cdot 10^8}{1.2\cdot 10^9}=0.25 m

Aneli [31]
Answer:
180 meters

Explanation:
Josh walks 6 meters to the right and the 6 meters back. This means that in one time, Josh walks a total distance of 6+6 = 12 meters
Now, we are given that Josh walks this same distance 15 times.
Therefore, we will multiply this distance by 15 to get the total distance that he walks as follows:
Total distance = 12*15 = 180 meters

Based on the above calculations, Josh walks 180 meters over the course of the class

Hope this helps :)

A ball rolls from x = - 5m to x = 0m in 1 second . What was its average velocity? (Units = m/s) Don't forget: velocities and dis
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

+ 5 m/s

Explanation:

change in displacement = ΔX=final position - initial position

                                            ΔX = 0-(-5) =0+5 =+ 5 m

average velocity =  ΔX/t

                             = +5/1

                             = + 5 m/s

positive sign shows that ball rolls towards right

Air flows upward in the wick of a lantern because of the liquid property called
vovangra [49]

Adhesive.

Adhesive is the force of attraction between molecules of different kind. Liquid flows upward the wick because the adhesive force between the wick and the liquid is higher than cohesive forces in the liquid.

When the adhesive  force  between the wick and the liquid is high we have capillarity taking place. This cause the liquid to move up the wick.
