Answer:

Densities

Explanation:

When we talk about density, one of the things that come to our mind is actually how heavy something is.

If i have substances that possess different densities, i will notice that i can not really mix them because they will separate and the heavier substance will be at the bottom while the lighter substance will be at the top.

Hence the two substances separated due to difference in density.

A 30.0-kg child sits on one end of a long uniform beam having a mass of 20.0 kg, and a 40.0-kg child sits on the other end. The

qaws [65]

let the length of the beam be "L"

from the diagram

AD = length of beam = L

AC = CD = AD/2 = L/2

BC = AC - AB = (L/2) - 1.10

BD = AD - AB = L - 1.10

m = mass of beam = 20 kg

m₁ = mass of child on left end = 30 kg

m₂ = mass of child on right end = 40 kg

using equilibrium of torque about B

(m₁ g) (AB) = (mg) (BC) + (m₂ g) (BD)

30 (1.10) = (20) ((L/2) - 1.10) + (40) (L - 1.10)

L = 1.98 m

Radial acceleration is given by

$a_{rad}= \frac{v^2}{r}$
where

$v=r \omega$
then

$a_{rad}= \frac{r^2 \omega^2}{r}=r\omega^2$

Now

$70\omega^2=3.90 \frac{m}{s^2} \\ \\ \omega= \sqrt{ \frac{3.9}{70} }$

Using the relation

$\omega=2 \pi f$

$2 \pi f= \sqrt{ \frac{3.9}{70} }\\ \\ f= \frac{1}{2 \pi}\sqrt{ \frac{3.9}{70} }Hz$

Putting into rpm

$\frac{60}{2 \pi}\sqrt{ \frac{3.9}{70}} =2.254rpm$

What is the frequency of blue light that has a wavelength of 446 nm?

Maslowich

When I went through with the math, the answer I came upon was:
6.67 X 10^14 

Here is how I did it: First of all we need to know the equation. 

c=nu X lamda 
(speed of light) = (frequency)(wavelength) 
(3.0 X 10^8 m/s) = (frequency)(450nm) 

We want the answer in meters so we need to convert 450nm to meters. 
450nm= 4.5 X 10^ -7 m 
(3.0 X 10^8 m/s) = (frequency)(4.5 X 10^ -7 m) 

Divide the speed of light by the wavelength. 
(3.0 X 10^8m/s) / (4.5 X 10^ -7m) =6.67 X 10^ 14 per second or s- 

Answer: 6.67 X 10^14 s- hope this helps
