Answer:
1) f= 8.6 GHz
2) t= 0.2 ms
Explanation:
1)
- Since microwaves are electromagnetic waves, they move at the same speed as the light in vacuum, i.e. 3*10⁸ m/s.
- There exists a fixed relationship between the frequency (f) , the wavelength (λ) and the propagation speed in any wave, as follows:
- Replacing by the givens, and solving for f, we get:
⇒ f = 8.6 Ghz (with two significative figures)
2)
- Assuming that the microwaves travel at a constant speed in a straight line (behaving like rays) , we can apply the definition of average velocity, as follows:
where v= c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s
d= distance between mountaintops = 52 km = 52*10³ m
⇒ t = 0.2 ms (with two significative figures)
I think the answer should be: “100.4957 N”
Answer:
Wavelenght is 4.53x10^-7m
Explanation:
Detailed explanation and calculation is shown in the image below
Everything starts from spectroscopy. Astronomers only have concentrated information at wavelengths that are emitted from the stars. What they do with this information is to obtain the frequency range of the stars and through spectroscopes they are responsible for dividing the radiation beams and determining the coincidence with the emission of those same waves, of chemical elements. From these observation techniques it is possible to obtain the composition and according to the color, obtaining characteristics such as temperature. The spectrum of stars consists of dark and bright lines called Fraunhofer lines. This spectrum is compared to the spectrum of different elements to find the composition of the stars. This is possible because the elements emit or absorb only specific wavelengths.
The correct options are:
1 How tall are you?
2How far is it from your house to your school?
3How wide is your refrigerator?
All these measurements involve to measure a length. Instead, the other two options involve to measure different physical quantities; for instance, the question
4 How much does your sister weigh?
Involve to measure a weight (and so, a mass), while the question
5 How warm is it in San Diego?
requires to measure a temperature.
