Answer:

λ = 437 m.

Explanation:

  • Since a radio wave is a electromagnetic type of wave, it propagates approximately at the same speed of light in vacuum, 3*10⁸ m/s.
  • As in any wave, there exist a fixed relationship between the propagation speed, the wavelength and the frequency of the radio wave, as follows:

       c = \lambda* f (1)

  • Replacing by the values of the speed and the frequency, and solving for the wavelength λ, we get:

       \lambda = \frac{c}{f} =\frac{3e8 m/s}{685.9e31/s} =437 m  (2)

Wolfgang pauli hypothesized an exclusion principle. This principle says two electrons in an atom cannot have the same what?.
tatiyna

No two electrons in an atom or molecule may have the same four electronic quantum numbers, according to the Pauli Exclusion Principle. Only two electrons can fit into an orbital at a time, hence they must have opposing spins.

<h3>What is Pauli's exclusion principle ?</h3>

According to Pauli's Exclusion Principle, no two electrons in the same atom can have values for all four of their quantum numbers that are exactly the same. In other words, two electrons in the same orbital must have opposing spins and no more than two electrons can occupy the same orbital.

  • The reason it is known as the exclusion principle is because it states that all other electrons in an atom are excluded if one electron in the atom has the same specific values for all four quantum numbers.

As the temperature rises the solubility of all gases in water will _________
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Decreases.

Explanation:

The rise in temperature of gas increases the kinetic energy of its molecules and they rush out of water instead of dissolving similarly as air rushes out of boiling water in form of bubbles

A 2300 Kg car accelerates from rest to 6.00 m/s in 12.00 seconds. What is the net force acting in the car?
pav-90 [236]
F=ma
a=(v2-v1)/(t2-t1)
a=(6-0)/(12-0)
a=6/12
a= .5 m/s^2
f=2300kg*.5m/s^2
f=1150N
f=1200N if using correct sig figs
