The basic relationship between frequency and wavelength for light (which is an electromagnetic wave) is
c= f \lambda
where c is the speed of light, f the frequency and \lambda the wavelength of the wave. 
Using \lambda=4.5 \cdot 10^{-7} m and c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s, we can find the value of the frequency:
f= \frac{c}{\lambda}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{4.5 \cdot 10^{-7} m}=6.7 \cdot 10^{14} Hz

A packing crate with mass 80.0 kg is at rest on a horizontal, frictionless surface. At t = 0 a net horizontal force in the +x-di
Nataly [62]

Answer:

Final speed of the crate is 15 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that constant force F = 80 N is applied on the object for t = 12 s

Now we can use definition of force to find the speed after t = 12 s

F . t = m(v_f - v_i)

so here we know that object is at rest initially so we have

80 (12) = 80( v_f - 0)

v_f = 12 m/s

Now for next 6 s the force decreases to ZERO linearly

so we can write the force equation as

F = 80 - \frac{40}{3} t

now again by same equation we have

\int F .dt = m(v_f - v_i)

\int (80 - (40/3)t) dt = 80(v_f - 12)

80 t - \frac{40t^2}{6} = 80(v_f - 12)

put t = 6 s

480 - 240 = 80(v_f - 12)

v_f = 12 + 3

v_f = 15 m/s

A chair of mass 30.0 kg is at rest on a horizontal floor. The floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of 8
miv72 [106K]
First make sure you draw a force diagram. You should have Fn going up, Fg going down, Ff going left and another Fn going diagonally down to the right. The angle of the diagonal Fn (we'll call it Fn2) is 35° and Fn2 itself is 80N. Fn2 can be divided into two forces: Fn2x which is horizontal, and Fn2y which is vertical. Right now we only care about Fn2y.

To solve for Fn2y we use what we're given and some trig. Drawing out the actual force of Fn2 along with Fn2x and Fn2y we can see it makes a right triangle, with 80 as the hypotenuse. We want to solve for Fn2y which is the opposite side, so Sin(35)=y/80. Fn2y= 80sin35 = 45.89N

Next we solve for Fg. To do this we use Fg= 9.8 * m. Mass = 30kg, so Fg = 9.8 * 30 = 294N.

Since the chair isn't moving up or down, we can set our equation equal to zero. The net force equation in the vertical direction will be Fn + Fn2y -Fg = 0. If we plug in what we know, we get Fn + 45.89 -294 = 0. Then solve this algebraically.

Fn +45.89 -294 = 0
Fn +45.89 = 294
Fn = 248.11 N

You'll get a more accurate answer if you don't round Fn2y when solving for it, it would be something along the lines of 45.88611 etc

If you are lying down and stand up quickly, you can get dizzy or feel faint. This is because the blood vessels don't have time t
sammy [17]

Complete Question

If you are lying down and stand up quickly, you can get dizzy or feel faint. This is because the blood vessels don’t have time to expand to compensate for the blood pressure drop. If your brain is 0.4 m higher than your heart when you are standing, how much lower is your blood pressure at your brain than it is at your heart? The density of blood plasma is about 1025 kg/m3 and a typical maximum (systolic) pressure of the blood at the heart is 120 mm of Hg (= 0.16 atm = 16 kP = 1.6 × 104 N/m2).

Answer:

The pressure at the brain is P_b  = 89.872 \ mm \ of \ Hg

Explanation:

Generally is mathematically denoted as

                  P = \rho gh

Substituting 1025 kg/m^3 for \rho(the  density) , 9.8 m/s^2 for g (acceleration due to gravity) , 0.4m for h (the height )

We have that the pressure difference between the heart and the brain is

              P = 1025 * 9.8 *0.4

                  = 4018 N/m^2

But the pressure of blood at the heart is given as

               P_h=120 mm of Hg = 120 * 133 =  1.59*10^3Pa

Now the pressure at the brain is mathematically evaluated as

                 P_b = P_h - P

                     = 1.596*10^4 - 4018

                     = 11982 N/m^2

                      P_b= \frac{11982}{133} = 89.872 \ mm \ of \ Hg

A 2kg object is moving horizontally with a speed of 4 m/s. How much net force is required to keep the object moving at this spee
Elza [17]
We can solve this problem using the force equation.

Force = Mass * Acceleration

2kg * 4m/s = 8 N

The net force required to keep the object moving at this speed and in this direction is 8 N.
