Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of energy states that; energy can neither be created nor destroyed but is converted from one form to another.

In view of this principle, Ella can not be correct when she says that a lot of energy has disappeared. The use of the term "disappeared" connotes the idea that the energy no longer exists which does not happen.

Hence, energy can not "disappear" from hot water rather the energy in the water may be transferred to the surroundings.

An airplane travels 2400 km at a speed of 600 km/h, decreases its speed to 400 km/h for the next 1200 km and travels the last 2,
Alexus [3.1K]
Forget the numbers and think about how speed works for a second. If a plane flies at 600km/h, this means that it will fly exactly 600 km in 1 hour. So, how long would it take to fly 2400 km??

2400/600 = 4hours.

Do this for all three and add up the hours.

Total time: 12 hours

Average speed is the total distance / total time.

So,

Add up all the distances and divide by 12.

(2400+1200+2500) / 12

Average speed: 508.33333333 km/h

Infrared radiation from young stars can pass through the heavy dust clouds surrounding them, allowing astronomers here on Earth
liberstina [14]

Answer:

λ = 1.86 x 10⁻⁴ m = 186 μm

Explanation:

The relationship between the wavelength and the frequency of a wave is given by the following equation:

c = f\lambda\\\\\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

where,

λ = wavelength of infrared radiation = ?

c = speed of infrared radiation = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

f = frequency of infrared radiation = 1.61 THz = 1.61 x 10¹² Hz

Therefore,

\lambda = \frac{3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s}{1.61\ x\ 10^{12}\ Hz}

<u>λ = 1.86 x 10⁻⁴ m = 186 μm</u>
