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

1) What is the highest atomic number element a red dwarf star can produce in its core? a. Carbon b. Oxygen c. Helium d. Iron
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

1) c. Helium

2) Iron

3) False.

Explanation:

1. Red dwarf is the smallest and the coolest star on the sequence. These are common stars in the milky way. Red dwarfs contains metals and the elements with higher atomic number. It is found that Helium is produced in red dwarf stars.

2. Iron is the highest atomic number element that is produced in cores of largest stars. The highest mass stars can make all elements up to iron, which is the heaviest element they can produce.

3. The end of stars life is dependent on the mass they are born with. It is not necessary that all red dwarf stars will become white dwarf stars faster than sun like star.

If a 110 kg go-cart traveling at a velocity of 13.41 m/s has a collision with an impulse of 615 Nxs, what is the
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

5.59 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass = 110 kg

Initial velocity: u = 13.41 m/s

Force = 615 N

Time(t) = 1 s

Now, the formula for force is;

Force = mass x acceleration

Thus;

615 = 110 × acceleration

\Acceleration(a) = 615/110 = 5.591 m/s²

Now, using Newton's first law of motion, we can find acceleration (a). Thus;

v = u + at

v = 13.41 + (5.591 × 1)

v ≈ 19 m/s

So,the change in velocity is;

Final velocity(v) - Initial velocity(u) = 19 - 13.41 = 5.59 m/s

A diver in the pike position (legs straight, hands on ankles) usually makes only one or one-and-a-half rotations. To make two or
Korolek [52]

Answer:

from the above analysis we can say that the angular velocity in the later case is more than that of the former case. This means that the number of rotation made in the truck case is more than that made in pike position.

Explanation:

This can be explained on the basis of conservation of angular momentum.

This means the initial and the final angular velocity is conserved. Consider initial position (1)in the pike and final position in the be truck position. So there inertia's will also be different.

⇒I_1\omega_1 = I_2\omega_2

\frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{\omega_2}{\omega_1}

also,

I_1= mr_1^2

I_2= mr_2^2

since, r_2^2

I_2^2

therefore,

\omega_1^2

So, from the above analysis we can say that the angular velocity in the later case is more than that of the former case. This means that the number of rotation made in the truck case is more than that made in pike position.

A ship maneuvers to within 2.50 x 103 m of anisland's 1.80 x 103 m high mountain peak and fires aprojectile at an enemy ship 6.1
const2013 [10]

Answer:

Distance between peak height (vertically) of projectile and mountain height = (2975.2 - 1800) = 1175.2 m

Distance between where the projectile lands and ship B = (3188.8 - 3110) = 8.8 m

Explanation:

Given the velocity and angle of shot of the projectile, one can calculate the range and maximum height attained by the projectile.

H = (v₀² Sin²θ)/2g

v₀ = initial velocity of projectile = 2.50 × 10² m/s = 250 m/s

θ = 75°, g = 9.8 m/s²

H = 250² (Sin² 75)/(2 × 9.8) = 2975.2 m

Range of projectile

R = v₀² (sin2θ)/g

R = 250² (sin2×75)/9.8

R = 250² (sin 150)/9.8 = 3188.8 m

Height of mountain = 1.80 × 10³ = 1800 m

Maximum height of projectile = 2975.2 m

Distance between peak height (vertically) of projectile and mountain height = 2975.2 - 1800 = 1175.2 m

Distance of ship B from ship A = 2.5 × 10³ + 6.1 × 10² = 2500 + 610 = 3110 m

Range of projectile = 3188.8 m

Distance between where the projectile lands and ship B = 3188.8 - 3110 = 8.8 m
