A television remote control uses infrared light with a wavelength of 940 nm. What is the frequency of the light?

Physics
1 answer:
Ronch [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Frequency = 3.19 * 10^14 Hz or 1/s

Explanation:

Relationship b/w frequency and wavelength can be expressed as:

C = wavelength * frequency, where c is speed of light in vacuum which is 3.0*10^8 m/s.

Now simply input value (but before that convert wavelength into meters to match the units, you do this by multiply it by 10^-9 so it will be 940*10^-9)

3.0 * 10^8 = Frequency * 940 x 10^-9

Frequency = 3.19 * 10^14 Hz or 1/s

Compare convergent plate boundaries that have the same density to convergent plate boundaries with different densities.
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

If the two plates are of equal density, they usually push up against each other, forming a mountain chain. If they are of unequal density, one plate usually sinks beneath the other in a subduction zone. Hope this helps!

What is the SI unit for kinetic energy
trapecia [35]
The easiest way to build a unit for energy is to remember that
'work' is energy, and  
                                       Work = (force) x (distance).

So energy is                   (unit of force) x (unit of distance)

                   [Energy]  =       (Newton)            (meter) .

'Newton' itself is a combination of base units, so
energy is really
                             (kilogram-meter/sec²)      (meter)

                       =           kilogram-meter² / sec² .

That unit is so complicated that it's been given a special,
shorter name:
                                       Joule .

It doesn't matter what kind of energy you're talking about.
Kinetic, potential, nuclear, electromagnetic, food, chemical,
muscle, wind, solar, steam ... they all boil down to Joules.

And if you generate, use, transfer, or consume 1 Joule of
energy every second, then we say that the 'power' is '1 watt'.

Zoe finds that the temperature of a substance is 12 degrees Celsius. What does this tell Zoe about the substance?
maks197457 [2]
Given the temperature, we can tell if the substance is cold or not relative to the reference temperature. For example, compared to the substance having a temperature of 15 degrees C, the substance is colder and it is hotter from the substance of temperature lesser than 12 degrees C.
