Physics
1 answer:
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]2 years ago
6 0

Answer: (A) The number of waves that pass a point in a certain amount of time.  

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are categorized according to their frequency f or, equivalently, according to their wavelength λ = c/f. Visible light has a wavelength range from ~400 nm to ~700 nm.

Frequency: Is the number of waves that pass a certain point in a specified amount of time.

Trough: The low point of the wave cycle.

Wavelength: The distance between two successive peaks.

Electromagnetic wave: One of the waves that are propagated by simultaneous periodic variations of electric and magnetic field intensity.

ella [17]

Answer:

480.2 m

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Speed of sound (v) = 343 m/s.

Time (t) = 2.8 s

Distance (x) of the cliff =?

The distance of the cliff from the woman can be obtained as follow:

v = 2x /t

343 = 2x /2.8

Cross multiply

2x = 343 × 2.8

2x = 960.4

Divide both side by the coefficient of x i.e 2

x = 960.4/2

x = 480.2 m

Therefore, the cliff is 480.2 m away from the woman.

What is the diameter of a circle
aalyn [17]
A diameter is a straight line that begins at one end of the circle and ends at the opposite end. The condition for a line to be a diameter is that it must pass through the centre of the circle. If a line that touches two points on the circle, does not pass from the centre of the circle, it cannot be called a diameter.
The length of the diameter is the measurement of the line that connects the two points of the circle.

How do silicate materials form
Alisiya [41]
Silicates that are composed of infinite chains of tetrahedrons are called inosilicates; single chains have a unit composition of SiO 3 or Si 2 O 6, whereas double chains contain a silicon to oxygen ratio of 4:11. Phyllosilicates, or sheet silicates, are formed when three oxygen atoms are shared with adjoining tetrahedrons.

A 10kg box is sliding at 50m/s. Find the momentum
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The momentum of the ball is 500 kg·m/s

Explanation:

The momentum is given by Mass × Velocity

The given parameters are;

The mass of the box = 10 kg

The velocity by which the box is sliding = 50 m/s

Therefore, the momentum of the ball is given as follows;

The momentum of the ball = 10 kg × 50 m/s = 500 kg·m/s

The momentum of the ball = 500 kg·m/s
