What is the frequency of radiation whose wavelength is 2.40 x 10-5 cm?

Physics

S_A_V [24]2 years ago

<span>To begin, the formula for finding frequency when wavelength is known is "f = c / w" when c is the constant velocity (3 * 10^8 m/s). To convert the wavelength into a common form (m/s), it will have to be multiplied by 10^-2. This leaves the equation as "f = 3.0 * 10^8 / (2.4 * 10^-5 * 10^-2), or 2.4 * 10^-7. This gives 1.25 * 10^15 m/s as the frequency.</span>

If radio waves are used to communicate with an alien spaceship approaching Earth at 10% of the speed of light c, the aliens woul
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

3×10^7 m/s or 0.10c (e)

Explanation: If the actual value of the speed of light were to be put into consideration.

Given that the speed of light is c = 3.0×10^8m/s

The alien spaceship is approaching at the rate of 10% of the speed of light.

10% of 3.0×10^8m/s

10/100 × 3.0×10^8m/s

0.1 ×3.0×10^8m/s

3×10^7 m/s. Which is the same thing as 0.1 of c = 0.1×c

A small rock is launched straight upward from the surface of a planet with no atmosphere. The initial speed of the rock is twice
Scorpion4ik [409]

If gravitational effects from other objects are negligible, the speed of the rock at a very great distance from the planet will approach a value of \sqrt{3} v_{e}

<u>Explanation:</u>

To express velocity which is too far from the planet and escape velocity by using the energy conservation, we get

Rock’s initial velocity , v_{i}=2 v_{e}. Here the radius is R, so find the escape velocity as follows,

            \frac{1}{2} m v_{e}^{2}-\frac{G M m}{R}=0

            \frac{1}{2} m v_{e}^{2}=\frac{G M m}{R}

            v_{e}^{2}=\frac{2 G M}{R}

            v_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2 G M}{R}}

Where, M = Planet’s mass and G = constant.

From given conditions,

Surface potential energy can be expressed as,  U_{i}=-\frac{G M m}{R}

R tend to infinity when far away from the planet, so v_{f}=0

Then, kinetic energy at initial would be,

                  k_{i}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{i}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} m\left(2 v_{e}\right)^{2}

Similarly, kinetic energy at final would be,

                k_{f}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{f}^{2}

Here, v_{f}=\text { final velocity }

Now, adding potential and kinetic energies of initial and final and equating as below, find the final velocity as

                 U_{i}+k_{i}=k_{f}+v_{f}

                 \frac{1}{2} m\left(2 v_{e}\right)^{2}-\frac{G M m}{R}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{f}^{2}+0

                  \frac{1}{2} m\left(2 v_{e}\right)^{2}-\frac{G M m}{R}=\frac{1}{2} m v_{f}^{2}

'm' and \frac{1}{2} as common on both sides, so gets cancelled, we get as

                   4\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}-\frac{2 G M}{R}=v_{f}^{2}

We know, v_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2 G M}{R}}, it can be wriiten as \left(v_{e}\right)^{2}=\frac{2 G M}{R}, we get

                4\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}-\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}=v_{f}^{2}

                v_{f}^{2}=3\left(v_{e}\right)^{2}

Taking squares out, we get,

                v_{f}=\sqrt{3} v_{e}

Suppose 1 kg of Hydrogen is converted into Helium. a) What is the mass of the He produced? b) How much energy is released in thi
morpeh [17]

Answer:

a) m = 993 g

b) E = 6.50 × 10¹⁴ J

Explanation:

atomic mass of hydrogen = 1.00794

4 hydrogen atom will make a helium atom = 4 × 1.00794 = 4.03176

we know atomic mass of helium = 4.002602

difference in the atomic mass of helium = 4.03176-4.002602 = 0.029158

fraction of mass lost = \dfrac{0.029158}{4.03176}= 0.00723

loss of mass for 1000 g = 1000 × 0.00723 = 7.23

a) mass of helium produced = 1000-7.23 = 993 g (approx.)

b) energy released in the process

E = m c²

E = 0.00723 × (3× 10⁸)²

E = 6.50 × 10¹⁴ J
