The frequency of a microwave is 1.2 x 10^9 hertz. what is the wavelength of the given problem.

Olenka [21]

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

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

As a woman walks, her entire weight is momentarily placed on one heel of her high-heeled shoes. Calculate the pressure exerted o

astraxan [27]

Answer:

3.6 x 10⁶ Pa

Explanation:

A = Area of the heel = 1.50 cm² = 1.50 x 10⁻⁴ m²

m = mass of the woman = 55.0 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Force of gravity on the heel is given as

F = mg

Inserting the values

F = (55) (9.8)

F = 539 N

Pressure exerted on the floor is given as

$P = \frac{F}{A}$

$P = \frac{539}{1.5\times 10^{-4}}$

P = 3.6 x 10⁶ Pa

A river 1.00 mile wide flows with a constant speed of 1.00 mph. A man can row a boat at 2.00 mph. He crosses the river in a dire

gladu [14]

To solve this problem we will apply the geometric concepts of displacement according to the description given. Taking into account that there is an initial displacement towards the North and then towards the west, therefore the speed would be:

$V_T^2=v_N^2-v_W^2$

$V_T = \sqrt{v_N^2-v_W^2}$

Travel north 2mph and west to 1mph, then,

$V_T = \sqrt{2^2-1^2}$

$V_T = \sqrt{3}$

The route is done exactly the same to the south and east, so make this route twice, from the definition of speed we have to

$v= \frac{\Delta x}{t}$

$t = \frac{\Delta x}{v}$

$t = \frac{2*(1mile)}{\sqrt{3}mph}$

$t = 1.15hour$

Therefore the total travel time for the man is 1.15hour.

A river flows due east at 1.60 m/s. A boat crosses the river from the south shore to the north shore by maintaining a constant v

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

part (a) $v\ =\ 10.42\ at\ 81.17^o$ towards north east direction.

part (b) s = 46.60 m

Explanation:

Given,

velocity of the river due to east = $v_r\ =\ 1.60\ m/s.$
velocity of the boat due to the north = $v_b\ =\ 10.3\ m/s.$

part (a)

River is flowing due to east and the boat is moving in the north, therefore both the velocities are perpendicular to each other and,

Hence the resultant velocity i,e, the velocity of the boat relative to the shore is in the North east direction. velocities are the vector quantities, Hence the resultant velocity is the vector addition of these two velocities and the angle between both the velocities are $90^o$

Let 'v' be the velocity of the boat relative to the shore.

$\therefore v\ =\ \sqrt{v_r^2\ +\ v_b^2}\\\Rightarrow v\ =\ \sqrt{1.60^2\ +\ 10.3^2}\\\Rightarrow v\ =\ 10.42\ m/s.$

Let $\theta$ be the angle of the velocity of the boat relative to the shore with the horizontal axis.

Direction of the velocity of the boat relative to the shore. $\therefore Tan\theta\ =\ \dfrac{v_b}{v_r}\\\Rightarrow Tan\theta\ =\ \dfrac{10.3}{1.60}\\\Rightarrow \theta\ =\ Tan^{-1}\left (\dfrac{10.3}{1.60}\ \right )\\\Rightarrow \theta\ =\ 81.17^o$

part (b)

Width of the shore = w = 300m

total distance traveled in the north direction by the boat is equal to the product of the velocity of the boat in north direction and total time taken

Let 't' be the total time taken by the boat to cross the width of the river. $\therefore w\ =\ v_bt\\\Rightarrow t\ =\ \dfrac{w}{v_b}\\\Rightarrow t\ =\ \dfrac{300}{10.3}\\\Rightarrow t\ =\ 29.12 s$

Therefore the total distance traveled in the direction of downstream by the boat is equal to the product of the total time taken and the velocity of the river $\therefore s\ =\ u_rt\\\Rightarrow s\ =\ 1.60\times 29.12\\\Rightarrow s\ =\ 46.60\ m$
