The wavelength of red helium-neon laser light in air is 632.8 nm.(a) What is its frequency?(b) What is its wavelength in glass t
inn [45]

(a) 4.74 \cdot 10^{14}Hz

The frequency of a wave is given by:

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where

v is the wave's speed

\lambda is the wavelength

For the red laser light in this problem, we have

v=c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s (speed of light)

\lambda=632.8 nm=632.8\cdot 10^{-9} m

Substituting,

f=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{632.8 \cdot 10^{-9} m}=4.74 \cdot 10^{14}Hz

(b) 427.6 nm

The wavelength of the wave in the glass is given by

\lambda=\frac{\lambda_0}{n}

where

\lambda_0 = 632.8\cdot 10^{-9} m is the original wavelength of the wave in air

n = 1.48 is the refractive index of glass

Substituting into the formula,

\lambda=\frac{632.8\cdot 10^{-9}m}{1.48}=427.6\cdot 10^{-9}m=427.6 nm

(c) 2.02\cdot 10^8 m/s

The speed of the wave in the glass is given by

v=\frac{c}{n}

where

c = 3\cdot 10^8 m/s is the original speed of the wave in air

n = 1.48 is the refractive index of glass

Substituting into the formula,

v=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.48}=2.02\cdot 10^8 m/s

Why is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge an ideal place for SWARM to collect electrical conductivity data?
ElenaW [278]

Answer: Mid-ocean ridges are geologically important because they occur along the kind of plate boundary where new ocean floor is created as the plates spread apart. Thus the mid-ocean ridge is also known as a "spreading center" or a "divergent plate boundary." The plates spread apart at rates of 1 cm to 20 cm per year.

A 6.00-μf parallel-plate capacitor has charges of 40.0 μc on its plates. how much potential energy is stored in this capacitor?
dedylja [7]

Thew energy stored in a capacitor of capacitance C and voltage between the plates V is

E=\frac{1}{2} CV^2=\frac{1}{2C} Q^2.

Substituting numerical value

E=\frac{1}{2*6*10^{-6}} (40*10^{-6})^2\\ E=133.33\; \mu J

an Olympic runner leaps over a hurdle.if the runner initial vertical speed is 2.2m/s how much will the runners center of mass be
Snowcat [4.5K]
Supposing the runner is condensed to a point and moves upward at 2.2 m/s.
It takes a time = 2.2/g = 2.2/9.8 = 0.22 seconds to increase to max height. 
Now looking at this condition in opposite - that is the runner is at max height and drops back to earth in 0.22 s (symmetry of this kind of motion). 
From what height does any object take 0.22 s to fall to earth (supposing there is no air friction)? 
d = 1/2gt²= (0.5)(9.8)(0.22)²= 0.24 m
