agasfer [191]

Answer:

b. amplitude

Explanation:

An electromagnetic waveconsists of electrical oscillations and magnetic fields. The frequency of the wave is directly proportional to its energy and its speed and inversely proportional to its wavelength. Therefore, with the only magnitude with which it has no relation is with its amplitude.

a car moving with a speed of 10 metre per second is accelerator at the rate of 2 metre per second square find its velocity after
STatiana [176]

a = ( v(2) - v(1) ) ÷ ( t(2) - t(1) )

2 = ( v(2) - 10 ) ÷ ( 6 - 0 )

2 × 6 = v(2) - 10

v(2) = 12 + 10

v(2) = 22 m/s

A Blu-ray disc is approximately 11 centimeters in diameter. The drive motor of a Blu-ray player is able to rotate up to 10,000 r
stepladder [879]

Answer:

the maximum angular speed (in radians per second) of a Blu-ray disc as it rotates is 57.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given information:

diameter of the disc, d  = 11 cm, r = 5.5 cm = 0.055 m

angular speed ω = 10000 rev/min = (10000 rev/min)(2π rad/rev)(1/60 min/s)

                             = 1000π/3 rad/s

to calculate the maximum angular speed we can use the following formula

ω = v/r

v = ωr

  = (1000π/3)(0.055)

  = 57.6 m/s

astronaut is traveling in a space vehicle moving at 0.510c relative to the Earth. The astronaut measures her pulse rate at 61.0
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

45.13 beats/min

Explanation:

Speed of space vehicle  = 0.51c

the pulse rate measured by the astronaut= 61.0 beats per minute

Pulse rate measured by the Earth observer is given by

=(pulse\ rate)\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} }

putting vales we get

=61\sqrt{1-\frac{0.51^2c^2}{c^2} }

= 45.13 beats/min
