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

Energy is observed in two basic forms: potential and kinetic. Which of the following correctly matches these forms with a source
Travka [436]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

The correct answer is option C

Kinetic energy is the energy which is due to the motion of body.

Potential energy is the energy due to virtue of position of the object.

option A is not true because potential energy is due the position of the body

Option B should be the potential energy not kinetic energy.;

Option D is motion of individual molecule leads to kinetic energy not potential energy.

So, the correct answer is option is the covalent bonds of a sugar molecule is potential energy because of the position of bond.

Go to the roller coaster simulation and click on the "launch" button. Pay attention to the pie chart as the roller coaster moves
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The kinetic energy INCREASES as the roller coaster goes downhill.

Kinetic energy is greatest at POINT 2

Potential energy is greatest at POINT 1

Kinetic energy is decreasing while potential energy is increasing between points 3 AND 4

Which chart comes closest to the relationship between kinetic energy and potential energy at point 6 - CHART OF ANY POINT IN THE SAME HEIGHT AS OF 6

Explanation:

⇒As the potential energy increases , kinetic energy decreases.

⇒Potential energy here is gravitational potential energy.

⇒Thus, more we move away from the centre of the earth , more will be the gravitational potential energy or decrease in kinetic energy

The weight of Earth's atmosphere exerts an average pressure of 1.01 ✕ 105 Pa on the ground at sea level. Use the definition of p
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The weight of Earth's atmosphere exert is 516.6\times10^{17}\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Average pressure P=1.01\times10^{5}\ Pa

Radius of earth R_{E}=6.38\times10^{6}\ m

Pressure :

Pressure is equal to the force upon area.

We need to calculate the weight of earth's atmosphere

Using formula of pressure

P=\dfrac{F}{A}  

F=PA

F=P\times 4\pi\times R_{E}^2

Where, P = pressure

A = area

Put the value into the formula

F=1.01\times10^{5}\times4\times\pi\times(6.38\times10^{6})^2

F=516.6\times10^{17}\ N

Hence, The weight of Earth's atmosphere exert is 516.6\times10^{17}\ N

g A projectile is launched with speed v0 from point A. Determine the launch angle ! which results in the maximum range R up the
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

The range is maximum when the angle of projection is 45 degree.

Explanation:

The formula for the horizontal range of the projectile is given by

R = \frac{u^{2}Sin2\theta }{g}

The range should be maximum if the value of Sin2θ is maximum.

The maximum value of Sin2θ is 1.

It means 2θ = 90

θ = 45

Thus, the range is maximum when the angle of projection is 45 degree.

If the angle of projection is 0 degree

R = 0

It means the horizontal distance covered by the projectile is zero, it can move in vertical direction.

If the angle of projection is 30 degree.

R = \frac{u^{2}Sin60 }{9.8}

R = 0.088u^2

If the angle of projection is 45 degree.

R = \frac{u^{2}Sin90 }{g}

R = u^2 / g

The formation of magma within Earth is NOT caused by which of the following processes? A. decompression (drop in pressure) B. ad
Lunna [17]

Answer:

D. loss of volatiles to the atmosphere

Explanation:

The name magma designates matter in a semi-fluid state - resulting from the fusion of silicates containing dispersed solid gases and minerals and other compounds that make up the rocks, at temperatures between 700 and 1200 ° C - that forms the region beneath the crust. land. When it is inside the earth it is specifically named magma and lava when it is ejected to the surface

There are three systems by which magma can be produced on earth:

<u> Temperature</u> rise by concentration of r<u>adioactive elements or by friction of lithospheric plates</u>.

<u> Pressure decrease,</u> since the melting point decreases.

Adding <u>water</u> A rock begins to melt earlier if it contains water because the –OH groups effectively break the Si-O bonds.

A rock is formed by a set of minerals, each of which has a characteristic melting point so a rock does not have a single melting point but a temperature range in which the rock melts into parts, leaving others solid parts. Between the point at which a solid rock begins to melt and the melting end (liquid point) the rock is partially molten.

The rise of magmas depends on their physical-chemical conditions (viscosity, density, volatile element content), on the tectonic peculiarities of the region where they are found and on the rocks to be traversed. Acid magmas are light and viscous, rise easily and cause large deposits. The basic magmas, of greater density, are less viscous and ascend with greater difficulty than the previous ones.
