Answer:

2.45 m/s²

Explanation:

From the question,

On the Earth

W = mg.................. Equation 1

Where W = weight of the alien on the earth, m = mass of the alien on the earth, g = acceleration due to gravity of the earth.

Make m the subject of equation 1

m = W/g................... Equation 2

Given: W = 3200 N

Constant: 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these value into equation 2

m = 3200/9.8

m = 326.5 kg.

Similarly,

On planet 9,

W' = mg'............... Equation 3

Where W' = weight of the alien on planet 9, g' = acceleration due to gravity on planet 9.

make g' the subject of the equation

g' = W'/m............ Equation 4

Given: W' = 800 N

Substitute into equation 4

g' = 800/326.5

g' = 2.45 m/s²

What is the wavelength of violet light that has a frequency of 7.5x10^14
Crank
Λ= V/f 
<span>but change it to represent the speed of light, c </span>
<span>λ= c/f </span>
<span>c = 3.00 x 10^8 m/s </span>
<span>Plug in your given info and solve for λ(wavelength) </span>
<span>λ= 3.00 x 10^8 m/s / 7.5 x 10^14 Hz
(3.00 x 10^8) / (7.5 x 10^14) = 300,000,000 / 750,000,000,000,000 = 0.0000004
Hope this helps :)

If the net external force acting on a system is zero , then the total momentum of the system is zero

If net external force acting on the system is zero, momentum is conserved. That means, initial and final momentum are same → total momentum of the system is zero.
