tmosphere. If an electron at that point has a charge of -1.6 × 10-19 coulombs, what is the magnitude of the force on the electron as a result of the electric field?
A.
2.0 × 10-6 newtons
B.
3.2 × 10-17 newtons
C.
5.8 × 105 newtons
D.

Answer:

The correct option is (b).

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field, E=2\times 10^2\ N/C

We need to find the magnitude of the force on the electron as a result of the electric field.

We know that, the electric force is given by :

F=qE\\\\=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 2\times 10^2\\\\F=3.2\times 10^{-17}\ N

So, the required force on the electron is equal to 3.2\times 10^{-17}\ N.

How are frequency and wave period related?
dedylja [7]
-- The unit of frequency is "per second"  (Hz), which is [reciprocal time].

-- The unit of period is "second", which is [time].

Do you see where this is going ?

'Frequency' and 'period' are reciprocals of each other.

For any wave ...

Period  =  (1) / (frequency) .

Frequency  =  (1) / (period) .

The distance between two successive peaks on adjacent waves is its
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Wavelength

Explanation:

Wavelength is the distance between two corresponding consecutive phases of a waveform. It is usually represented by λ in the mathematical expressions.

A continuous propagating wave repeats its wavelength over the distance.

A wave has crest and trough with respect to time and space.

Wave is defined as a disturbance of any parameter repeated in a cyclic manner over the given time.
