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.

The purpose of the question is to properly identify the tense of the verb being used. For this case, we use context clues to infer that the verb is being used in the present tense and will answer accordingly.

From the sentence given, we can use the word "está" as context to determine the tense of the verb. "Está" is used in the present tense. The other ways to use this word are:

  • "Estuvo", signals a past tense of a verb will follow.
  • "Estara", signals that a future tense of a verb will follow.

The fact that the previous word is being used in the present tense allows us to infer that the verb will be used in the present tense as well. Therefore, we choose the present tense of the verb "visitar" which corresponds to "visitando" and fill in the blank with this word.

Maurinko [17]
I suppose you are saying that your points are (1,6) and (13,0), correct?

If so, to find slope use this equation:
(Y2 - Y1)/(X2 - X1)

Let’s input the missing values:
(0 - 6)/(13 - 1)

You should get:
-6/12

(Optional but reccomended) Simplify:
-1/2

<u>The equilibrium rate of return on a 1 year T-bond is 5%</u>

<u />

<h3>Equilibrium rate</h3>

This is the interest rate at which the demand meet the supply at a particular point.

<h3>Equilibrium rate of return</h3>

This is the sum of dividend yield plus the rate of capital gains.

we can also say that the equilibrium rate for a 1 year T-bond in this case is the sum of the real risk free rate and the expected inflation.

Data

  • Real risk free rate = 3%
  • Expected inflation = 2%

Hence, the equilibrium rate of return will be 3% + 2% = 5%.

From the above, the equilibrium rate of return is 5%
