We are given an electromagnetic wave with a frequency of 5.09 x 10^14 Hz and travelling through a transparent medium. If the medium was vacuum, the speed of the wave would be equal to the speed of light. Otherwise, the main factor that would determine the speed of the wave is its wavelength.

A) A spaceship passes you at a speed of 0.800c. You measure its length to be 31.2 m .How long would it be when at rest?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

a

     l_o  =52 \  m

b

      l = 37.13 \ LY

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  speed of the spaceship is  v  =  0.800c

    Here  c is the speed of light with value  c =  3.0*10^{8} \ m/s

    The  length is  l = 31.2 \  m

     The  distance of the star for earth is d = 145 \  light \  years

     The  speed is v_s = 2.90 *10^{8}

     

Generally the from the length contraction equation we have that

       l  =  l_o  \sqrt{1 -[\frac{v}{c } ]}

Now the when at rest the length is  l_o

So  

      l_o =\frac{l}{\sqrt{ 1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2 } } }

      l_o =\frac{ 31.2 }{ \sqrt{1 - \frac{(0.800c ) ^2}{c^2} } }

      l_o=52 \  m

Considering b  

  Applying above equation

            l  =l_o \sqrt{1 -  [\frac{v}{c } ]}

Here l_o  =145 \  LY(light \ years )

So

           l=145 *  \sqrt{1 -  \frac{v_s^2}{c^2 } }

            l =145 *  \sqrt{ 1 - \frac{2.9 *10^{8}}{3.0*10^{8}} }

            l = 37.13 \ LY

If you have 12 atoms of hydrogen before a chemical reaction how many atoms of hydrogen will be president after the chemical reac
kaheart [24]
If you have 12 atoms of hydrogen before a chemical reaction, the number of hydrogen atoms that will be present after the chemical reaction is 12 atoms.
The Law of Conservation of Mass (LOCOM) states that mass is neither created nor destroyed before and after any chemical reaction.
According to the Law of Conservation of Mass (LOCOM), a balanced chemical equation requires that the number of atoms on the reactant side must be equal to the number of atoms on the product side of any chemical reaction.
In this context, a chemical reaction having 12 atoms of hydrogen as reactants at the beginning, should also produce a total of 12 atoms of hydrogen as products at the end of the chemical reaction.

Please answer any of these thanks !

1).  The equation is: (speed) = (frequency) x (wavelength)

Speed = (256 Hz) x (1.3 m) = 332.8 meters per second

 2).  If the instrument is played louder, the amplitude of the waves increases.
On the oscilloscope, they would appear larger from top to bottom, but the
horizontal size of each wave doesn't change.

If the instrument is played at a higher pitch, then the waves become shorter,
because 'pitch' is directly related to the frequency of the waves, and higher
pitch means higher frequency and more waves in any period of time.

If the instrument plays louder and at higher pitch, the waves on the scope
become taller and there are more of them across the screen.

3).  The equation is:  Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)
(Notice that this is exactly the same as the equation up above in question #1,
only with each side of that one divided by 'wavelength'.)

Frequency = 300,000,000 meters per second / 1,500 meters = 200,000 per second.

That's ' 200 k Hz ' .

Note:
I didn't think anybody broadcasts at 200 kHz, so I looked up BBC Radio 4
on-line, and I was surprised.  They broadcast on several different frequencies,
and one of them is 198 kHz !
