<u>Answer:</u>

<u>air mass</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Remember, the weather of a particular location is often a description of the atmospheric condition of that particular place.

Indeed, the definition of an air mass fits the reporter's description above. As the name implies, <u>a particular air mass would represent the temperature characteristics of a particular area that has a constant or the same temperature and air pressure.</u>

A beam of monochromatic light with a wavelength of 400 nm in air travels into water. what is the wavelength of the light in wate
slava [35]
The refractive index of water is n=1.33. This means that the speed of the light in the water is:
v= \frac{c}{n}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.33 }=2.26 \cdot 10^8 m/s

The relationship between frequency f and wavelength \lambda of a wave is given by:
\lambda= \frac{v}{f}
where v is the speed of the wave in the medium. The frequency of the light does not change when it moves from one medium to the other one, so we can compute the ratio between the wavelength of the light in water \lambda_w to that in air \lambda as
\frac{\lambda_w}{\lambda}= \frac{ \frac{v}{f} }{ \frac{c}{f} } = \frac{v}{c}
where v is the speed of light in water and c is the speed of light in air. Re-arranging this formula and by using \lambda=400 nm, we find
\lambda_w = \lambda \frac{v}{c}=(400 nm) \frac{2.26 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}=301 nm
which is the wavelength of light in water.

A laser used to dazzle the audience at a rock concert emits blue light with a wavelength of 463 nm . calculate the frequency of
ZanzabumX [31]

The wavelength of light is given as 463 nm or can also be written as 463 x 10^-9 m. [wavelength = ʎ]

We know that the speed of light is 299 792 458 m / s or approximately 3 x 10^8 m / s. [speed of light = c]

 

Given the two values, we can calculate for the frequence (f) using the formula:

f = c / ʎ

 

Substituting the given values:

f = (3 x 10^8 m / s) / 463 x 10^-9 m

f = 6.48 x 10^14 / s = 6.48 x 10^14 s^-1

<span>f = 6.48 x 10^14 Hz</span>
