What is the frequency of microwaves of wavelength 3 cm?

Physics
1 answer:
tiny-mole [99]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

10 GHz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf.................... Equation 1

Where v = speed of microwave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency.

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ................ Equation 2

Note: Microwave is an electromagnetic wave, and all electromagnetic wave have the same speed, which is 3×10⁸ m/s

From the question,

Given: λ = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Constant; v = 3×10⁸ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = 3×10⁸/(0.03)

f = 10¹⁰ Hz

f = (10¹⁰/10⁹) GHz

f = 10 GHz

A sports car is advertised to be able to stop in a distance of 50.0 m from a speed is 99.0km/h. What is its acceleration in m/s2
Shtirlitz [24]
99.0km/h =27.5m/s (this is the initial speed)
The final speed is zero
The distance is 50.0m
Therefore you use the formula:
vfinal²=vinitial²+2ad
a=(vfinal²-vinitial²)/2d
 = (0²-27.5²)/(2x50.0)
 =-7.5625 or in correct sigdigs -7.56m/s²
Hope this helps!

In an arcade game a 0.099 kg disk is shot across a frictionless horizontal surface by compressing it against a spring and releas
Sonja [21]

Answer:

The speed of disk is 1.98 \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of m = 0.099 kg

Spring constant k = 244 \frac{N}{m}

Compression of spring x = 4 \times 10^{-2} m

From energy conservation theorem,

Spring potential energy converted into kinetic energy,

   \frac{1}{2} m v^{2} = \frac{1}{2} k x^{2}

  v = \sqrt{\frac{k x^{2} }{m} }

  v = \sqrt{\frac{244 \times 16 \times 10^{-4} }{0.099} }

  v = 1.98 \frac{m}{s}

Therefore, the speed of disk is 1.98 \frac{m}{s}

Which of the following choices defines energy in scientific terms?
snow_tiger [21]
1) B. Energy is the ability to do work

2) C. Energy is conserved, it just goes from one form to another.

3) Work = Force x displacement
= 300 x 100 = 30,000 Joules

4) leaning a brick because no displacement is taking place.

5) They change the amount/strength or direction of the force needed.

6) Less force is needed and applied over a longer distance.

7) Heat is the flow of thermal energy from one object to another.
