Answer:

380 to 700 nanometers

Explanation:

The visible light spectrum is the segment of the electromagnetic spectrum that the human eye can view. More simply, this range of wavelengths is called visible light. Typically, the human eye can detect wavelengths from 380 to 700 nanometers.

A string of mass 60.0 g and length 2.0 m is fixed at both ends and with 500 N in tension. a. If a wave is sent along this string

Darya [45]

Answer:

The speed of wave is $v_1 = 129.1 \ m/s$

The new speed of the two waves is $v = 129.1 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the string is $m = 60 \ g = 60 *10^{-3} \ kg$

The length is $l = 2.0 \ m$

The tension is $T = 500 \ N$

Now the velocity of the first wave is mathematically represented as

$v_1 = \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} }$

Where $\mu$ is the linear density which is mathematically represented as

$\mu = \frac{m}{l}$

substituting values

$\mu = \frac{ 60 *10^{-3}}{2.0 }$

$\mu = 0.03\ kg/m$

$v_1 = \sqrt{ \frac{500}{0.03} }$

$v_1 = 129.1 \ m/s$

Now given that the Tension, mass and length are constant the velocity of the second wave will same as that of first wave (reference PHYS 1100 )

The instantaneous emf resulting from magnetic induction equals the rate of change of flux is

katen-ka-za [31]

Lenz's Law: The polarity of the induced emf is such that it produces a current whose magnetic field opposes the change in magnetic flux through the loop.
