Answer:

1.67m

5m/s

Explanation:

Wavelength of the wave = 3m

Speed of the wave = 5m/s

The distance between crest and the adjacent trough of water waves is known as the wavelength of a wave.

To find the frequency ;

V = f∧

V is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency

∧ is the wavelength

Insert the parameters and find the frequency;

f = V/ ∧ = 5 / 3 = 1.67Hz

The rate at which the wave passed a given point is the speed of the wave and it is 5m/s

A) A mass spectrometer has a velocity selector that allows ions traveling at only one speed to pass with no deflection through s

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

(A). The speed of the ions is $1.2\times10^{6}\ m/s$

(B). The radius of curvature of a singly charged lithium ion is $2.0\times10^{6}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field = 60000 N/C

Magnetic field = 0.0500 T

(A). We need to calculate the velocity

For no deflection

$F_{E}=F_{B}$

$Eq=Bqv$

$v = \dfrac{E}{B}$

$v=\dfrac{60000}{0.0500}$

$v=1.2\times10^{6}\ m/s$

(B). We need to calculate the radius

Using magnetic force balance by centripetal force

$Bqv=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$r=\dfrac{mv^2}{Bqv}$

Put the value into the formula

$r=\dfrac{1.16\times10^{-26}\times(1.2\times10^{6})^2}{0.0500\times1.6\times10^{-19}}$

$r=2.0\times10^{6}\ m$

Hence, (A). The speed of the ions is $1.2\times10^{6}\ m/s$

(B). The radius of curvature of a singly charged lithium ion is $2.0\times10^{6}\ m$

What is the sun's right ascension on the first day of winter?

Savatey [412]

From the point of view of the northern hemisphere:

The sun starts out the year at the Spring equinox, March 21,
Right Ascension 0, Declination 0.

3 months later, Summer solstice, June 21
RA = 6 hours, Dec. = +23.5°

3 months later, Fall equinox, September 21,
RA = 12 hours, Dec. = 0

3 months later, Winter solstice, December 21,
RA = 18 hours, Dec. = -23.5°
