Question:

If you wish to observe features that around the size of atoms, say 1.5×10⁻¹⁰ m, with electromagnetic radiation, the radiation must have a wavelength about the size of the atom itself.

a) If you had a microscope which was capable of doing this, what would the frequency of electromagnetic radiation be, in hertz that you would have to use?

b) What type of electromagnetic radiation would this be?

Given Information:

Wavelength = λ = 1.5×10⁻¹⁰ m

Required Information:

a) Frequency = f = ?

b) Type of electromagnetic radiation = ?

Answer:

a) Frequency = f = 2×10¹⁸ Hz

b) Type of electromagnetic radiation = X-rays

Explanation:

a) The frequency of the electromagnetic radiation is given by

f = c/ λ

Where λ is the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation and c is the speed of light and its value is 3×10⁸ m/s

f = 3×10⁸/1.5×10⁻¹⁰

f = 2×10¹⁸ Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the electromagnetic radiation would be 2×10¹⁸ Hz.

b)

The frequency range of X-rays is 3×10¹⁶ Hz to 3×10¹⁹ Hz

The frequency 2×10¹⁸ lies in that range, therefore, the type of electromagnetic radiation is X-rays

A spring is compressed 0.035 m inside a dart gun. (K=500 N/m). The spring has elastic energy. Calculate it.

NARA [144]

The elastic potential energy of the spring is 0.31 J

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy of a spring is given by

$E=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

where

k is the spring constant

x is the compression/stretching of the spring

For the spring in this problem, we have:

k = 500 N/m (spring constant)

x = 0.035 m (compression)

Substituting, we find the elastic potential energy:

$E=\frac{1}{2}(500)(0.035)^2=0.31 J$

Which two terms indicate the same area of the body? *

Kruka [31]

Answer:

For example, the toes are anterior to the heel, and the popliteus is posterior to the patella. Superior and inferior, which describe a position above (superior) or below (inferior) another part of the body. For example, the orbits are superior to the oris, and the pelvis is inferior to the abdomen.

An electron is a negatively charged particle that has a charge of magnitude, e - 1.60 x 10-19 C. Which one of the following stat

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

The electric field is directed toward the electron and has a magnitude of $E=\frac{ke}{r^{2} }$ .

Explanation:

An electric field is define as the surrounding of charges which exert a force on each other and this force can be attractive or repulsive depends on the charge.

In the given case electron is given and the magnitude of charge on electron is $e=1.6\times 10^{-19}C$

Electric field can be represented as,

$E=\frac{kQ}{r^{2} }$

Here, r is the distance between the point ande charge, k is the electric field constant and Q is the charge.

In the given question an electron is given so electric field will be,

$E=\frac{ke}{r^{2} }$

As we know that electric field start from the positive charge and vanish in the negative charge.

So, here the electric field will be $E=\frac{ke}{r^{2} }$ and it is directed toward the electron because of negative charge on the electron.

What is the change in momentum of a 0.18 kg arrow that is traveling at 100 m/s and is stopped by a hay

Kryger [21]

The 2 seconds part isn’t relèvent to the question.
So momentum = mass x velocity
So 0.18 x 100 = 18
