The radius of the circle traced out by the second hand on a clock is 6.00 cm. In a time t the tip of the second hand moves throu
quester [9]

Answer:

30.29 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Radius=r=6 cm

Length of an arc=l=19 cm

We have to find the value of t in seconds.

\theta=\frac{l}{r}

Substitute the values then we get

\theta=\frac{19}{6}=3.17 rad

We know that

1 minute=60 seconds

In 60 seconds ,second hand makes an angle=2\piradian

2\pi radian made by second had in 60 sec.

1 radian made by second hand in \frac{60}{2\pi} sec

3.17 rad made by second hand in \frac{60}{2\pi}\times 3.17=\frac{60}{2\times 3.14}\times 3.17=30.29 s

Hence, the value of t =30.29 s

Calculate the frequency of photon 434E-9 and speed of light 3E8m/s
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

f = 6.912 E14 Hz

Explanation:

The speed of the wave is defined as

speed = wavelength*frequency

the frequency of the photon  is defined as

f = speed / wavelength

f = 3 E8 m/s / 434 E-9 m

f = 6.912 E14 Hz
