Olenka [21]3 years ago

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

Why is the nucleus of an atom dense​
Inessa [10]

Explanation:

The nucleus of an atom is dense because it contains more of particles in a very little space.

The nucleus is the center of an atom made up of the protons and neutrons.

Atomic nucleus is very small compared to the size of the atom.

 Density is function of mass and volume.

Mass is the amount of matter in a substance.

Volume is the space occupied by a substance.

    The more the mass the more the density.

Since protons and neutron are massive bodies occupying a small space, they make the nucleus very dense.

Why is atmospheric pressure greater at low elevations and less at higher elevations?
ss7ja [257]
Earth's gravity pulls air as close to the surface as possible. As altitude increases, the amount of gas molecules in the air decreases—the air becomes less dense than air nearer to sea level.

You are running on a perfectly circular track that has a radius of 102 meters. What is the largest displacement you will ever at
tiny-mole [99]

The largest possible displacement on a circular track is the straight-line distance between the starting point and the point directly opposite it, half-way around the circle. That's the diameter of the track ... 204 meters.
