Considering the definition of wavelenght, frecuency and propagation speed,  the frequency of the electromagnetic radiation that has a wavelength of 720.0 nm is 4.167×10¹⁴ Hz.

In a periodic wave the wavelength (λ) is the physical distance between two points from which the wave repeats itself. It is expressed in units of length (m).

The frequency (f) is a measure of the number of cycles or repetitions of the wave per unit of time. Its unit is s⁻¹ or hertz (Hz).

The propagation speed is the speed with which the wave propagates in the medium, that is, it is the magnitude that measures the speed at which the wave's disturbance propagates along its displacement. Relate the wavelength (λ) and the frequency (f) inversely proportional using the following equation:

v = f×λ

In this case, you know:

  • v=c= 3×10⁸ m/s
  • f= ?
  • λ= 720 nm= 720×10⁻⁹ m

Replacing in the definition of propagation speed:

3×10⁸ m/s= f × 720×10⁻⁹ m

Solving:

3×10⁸ m/s÷ 720×10⁻⁹ m= f

<u><em>4.167×10¹⁴ Hz= f</em></u>

Finally, the frequency of the electromagnetic radiation that has a wavelength of 720.0 nm is 4.167×10¹⁴ Hz.

Chad has $420 to invest. the price of a stock is $6.82 per share. what is the greatest number of whole shares chad can buy?
Nezavi [6.7K]
This is an easy question. you just have to divide.
420÷6.82= 61.5
but because they are individual stocks and you can't have half a stock, you round it up to the nearest whole number
so the answer is 61
hope I helped:)

Which function is shown in the graph? mc001-1. Jpg mc001-2. Jpg mc001-3. Jpg mc001-4. Jpg.
Elan Coil [88]

The function shown in the graph in the image attached below is y=|x-4|.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Points on the x-axis = (0, 4)
  • Points on the y-axis = (0, 4)

First of all, we would determine the slope of this line by using the following formula;

Slope. \;m = \frac{Change \; in \; y \;axis}{Change \; in \; x \;axis} \\\\Slope. \;m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Substituting the points into the formula, we have;

Slope. \;m  = \frac{4 - 0}{4 - 0}\\\\Slope. \;m  = \frac{4}{4}\\\\

Slope, m  = 1

Next, we would find the intercept:

Let x = 0, for the y-intercept.

y=mx+b\\\\4=1(0)+b

b = 4

Therefore, the function shown in the graph in the image attached below is y=|x-4|

The movement of water between body fluid compartments
Lady bird [3.3K]

Smooth Transitions between Compartments The force that a fluid applies against a wall—hydrostatic pressure—is what moves fluid between compartments.

<h3>Where is fluid compartment?</h3>

Water makes roughly 60% of the adult human body, which is composed of intra- and extracellular fluid compartments. Extracellular fluid, which makes up 13 of the body's water, is found outside of cells. Two-thirds of the water in the body is found inside the mitochondria and is known as intracellular fluid.

<h3>Which body fluid compartment has the least fluid?</h3>

The fraction of fluid volume that is present in the gaps bordered with epithelial cells is known as transcellular fluid. It is the tiniest part of extravascular space, which also consists of plasma and interstitial fluid. Although it is often not expressed as a percentage of extracellular fluid, the body water content is around 2.5%.
