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

Light of wavelength 600 nm illuminates a diffraction grating. the second-order maximum is at angle 39.5 ∘. part a how many lines
WARRIOR [948]
Diffraction equation applies in this case:

d*Sin x = m*wavelength, where d = spacing of lines, x = angle = 39.5°, m = order of maximum = 2

Substituting;
d* Sin 39.5 = 2*600*10^-9
d = (2*600*10^-9)/Sin 39.5 = 1.88656*10^-6 m

In 1 mm (or 0.001 m), the number of lines is given as;
Number of lines = 0.001/d = 0.001/(1.88656*10^-6) = 530.065 ≈ 530 lines

Starting from rest, a particle that is confined to move along a straight line is accelerated at a rate of 5.0 m/s2. Which one of
Elanso [62]

Answer:

c) The slope is not constant and increases with increasing time.

Explanation:

The equation for the position of this particle (starting from rest is)

s = at^2/2 = 5t^2/2 = 2.5t^2

We can take derivative of this with respect to time t to get the equation of slope:

s' = (2.5t^2)' = 2*2.5t = 5t

As time t increase, the slope would increases with time as well.

790 kilometers/hour for a distance of 4,700 kilometers
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Time = (distance) / (average speed)

Time = (4,700 km) / (790 km/hr) = 5.9494 hours (rounded)

                                                  = 5hrs 56min 58 sec (rounded)

    (4,700 km) / (1.609344 km/mile) = 2,920 miles

Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

                      (2,929 miles) / 5.9494 hours) =  491 miles per hour
