Period T = 1/f, where f = frequency = 5 Hz

T = 1/5 = 0.20 s

Period = 0.20 seconds.

The period is the reciprocal of frequency.

Period = 1 / (frequency) = 1 / 5 per sec = 0.2 second.

The wavelength doesn't matter.

The basic barometer can be used to measure the height of a building. If the barometric readings at the top and the bottom of a b

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

$h = 269.6 m$

Explanation:

Pressure at the bottom of the building and at the top of the building must be related as

$P_{top} = P_{bottom} - \rho g h$

$P_{top} = 730 mm Hg$

$P_{bottom} = 755 mm Hg$

now we will have

$(755 \times 10^{-3})(13.6 \times 10^3)(9.81) = P_{bottom}$

$P_{bottom} = 1.007 \times 10^5 Pa$

$P_{top} = (730\times 10^{-3})(13.6 \times 10^3)(9.81)$

$P_{top} = 0.974 \times 10^5$

now we have

$(1.007 - 0.974)\times 10^5 = 1.25 (9.81) h$

$h = 269.6 m$

car was moving in a straight road of length 320 km it covered 240 km with an average velocity 75 km/hr then it ran out of fuel a

Stella [2.4K]

The average velocity of the car for the whole journey is 69.57 km/h.

The given parameters:

Length of the road, L = 320 km
Distance covered = 240 km at 75 km/h
time spent refueling, t₂ = 0.6 hr
Final velocity, = 100 km/hr

The time spent by the before refueling is calculated as follows;

$t = \frac{d}{v} \\\\t_1 = \frac{240}{75} \\\\t_1 = 3.2 \ hours$

The time spent by the car for the remaining journey;

$t_3 = \frac{320 - 240}{100} \\\\t_3 = 0.8 \ hr$

The total time of the journey is calculated as follows;

$t = t_1 + t_2 + t_3\\\\t = 3.2 \ hr \ + \ 0.6 \ hr \ + \ 0.8 \ hr\\\\t = 4.6 \ hours$

The average velocity of the car for the whole journey is calculated as follows;

$v = \frac{total \ distance }{total \ time} \\\\v = \frac{320}{4.6} \\\\v = 69.57 \ km/h$

Assume that the polymer material has a constant refractive index of 1.5. For light of 600nm wavelength at normal incidence, what

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Minimum thickness will be 100 nm

Explanation:

We have given refractive index is n = 1.5

Wavelength of the light incidence $\lambda$ = 600 nm

We have to find the smallest thickness of the film so that there will be minimum light reflect

For minimum thickness of non reflecting film

$t=\frac{\lambda }{4n}$ , here t is thickness, $\lambda$ is wavelength and n is refractive index

Putting all values $t=\frac{600}{4\times 1.5}=100nm$

So minimum thickness will be 100 nm
