The given situation below describes a standing wave because the string is fixed at both ends. A standing wave having three anti-nodes will have a wavelength that is two-thirds the length of the string. After getting the wavelength, this can be multiplied with the frequency to get the wave speed. 

For this problem: 

wave length = (2/3)(length of string: 68 cm)
wave length = (10/3 cm)

wave speed = wave length x frequency
wave speed = (10/3 cm) x (180 Hz)
wave speed = 600 cm/s or 0.6 m/s

Use Wien’s Law to calculate the peak wavelength of Betelgeuse, based on the temperature found in Question #8. Note: 1 nanometer
kodGreya [7K]

The peak wavelength of Betelgeuse is 828 nm

Explanation:

The relationship between surface temperature and peak wavelength of a star is given by Wien's displacement law:

\lambda=\frac{b}{T}

where

\lambda is the peak wavelength

T is the surface temperature

b=2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m\cdot K is Wien's constant

For Betelgeuse, the surface temperature is approximately

T = 3500 K

Therefore, its peak wavelength is:

\lambda=\frac{2.898\cdot 10^{-3}}{3500}=8.28\cdot 10^{-7} m = 828 nm

natita [175]

Answer:

3.258 m/s

Explanation:

k = Spring constant = 263 N/m (Assumed, as it is not given)

x = Displacement of spring = 0.7 m (Assumed, as it is not given)

\mu = Coefficient of friction = 0.4

Energy stored in spring is given by

U=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2\\\Rightarrow U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 263\times 0.7^2\\\Rightarrow U=64.435\ J

As the energy in the system is conserved we have

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=U-\mu mgx\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\dfrac{U-\mu mgx}{m}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\dfrac{64.435-0.4\times 8\times 9.81\times 0.7}{8}}\\\Rightarrow v=3.258\ m/s

The speed of the 8 kg block just before collision is 3.258 m/s

If the mass of one of two particles is doubled and the distance between them is doubled, the force of attraction between the two
andre [41]
The force of attraction between the two particles will remain the same, because when mass is doubled, force of attraction is doubled. However, when distance between their centers is doubled, then force of  attraction is halved. As such double and half cancel out each other and force of attraction remains the same.

Reil [10]

Most ejections originate from active regions on the Sun's surface, such as groupings of sunspots associated with frequent flares. These regions have closed magnetic field lines, in which the magnetic field strength is large enough to contain the plasma.
