The speed of the wave is: v = \lambda \cdot \nu

a) If we are considering a light ray, speed is "c". The wavelenght will be:

\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu} = \frac{3\cdot 10^8\ m\cdot s^{-1}}{8.6\cdot 10^{13}\ s^{-1}}\cdot \frac{10^9\ nm}{1\ m} = \bf 3.49\cdot 10^3\ nm

b) The frequency will be:

\nu = \frac{c}{\lambda} = \frac{3\cdot 10^8\ m\cdot s^{-1}}{566\cdot 10^9\ m} = \bf 5.3\cdot 10^{14}\ Hz

A beam of monochromatic light (f =5.09 ×1014 Hz) has a wavelength of 589 nanometers in air. What is the wavelength of this light
frosja888 [35]
Lucite has a refractive index of n=1.50. This means that the speed of the light in lucite is decreased according to:
v=\frac{c}{n}
where c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light in air. Putting the number in the formula, we find that the speed of light in lucite is
v=\frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.50}=2\cdot 10^8 m/s
The frequency of the light is f=5.09 \cdot 10^{14}Hz, so now we can calculate the wavelength in lucite by using the formula:
\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{2\cdot 10^8 m/s}{5.09 \cdot 10^{14} Hz}=3.93 \cdot 10^{-7} m=393 nm
<span>Therefore, the correct answer is (2) 393 nm.</span>

The correct answer is option D

When someone decides to do something then he or she must prepare themselves according to the career they choose.

When Yolanda has decided to be a nurse then she must create an individual career plan and start working on it.

A goal oriented person only works in the area of their goal and accomplishes it.

In a car crash, large accelerations of the head can lead to severe injuries or even death. A driver can probably survive an acce
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

0.22 m

Explanation:

We are told that the driver can survive an acceleration of 50g only if the collision lasts no longer than 30 ms. So,

t = 30 ms = 0.030 s

The acceleration is

a=-50g = -50(9.8)=-490 m/s^2

where the negative sign is due to the fact that this is a deceleration, since the driver comes to a stop in the collision.

First of all, we can find what the initial velocity of the car should be in this conditions by using the equation:

v=u+at

And since the final velocity is zero, v=0, and solving for u,

u=-at=-490(0.030)=14.7 m/s

And now we can find the corresponding distance travelled using the equation:

d=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2 = (14.7)(0.030)+\frac{1}{2}(-490)(0.030)^2=0.22 m

An electric toaster is rated 1200 watts at 120 volts. what is the total electrical energy used to operate the toaster for 30 sec
Anarel [89]
Energy is calculated as power*time, so give the wattage of 1200 W (equivalent to 1200 Joules/second) and time of 30 seconds, multiplying these gives 36000 J or 36 kJ of electrical energy.

If electrical charge or current is needed: Power = voltage * current, so given the power of 1200 watts and voltage of 120 V, current is 1200 W / 120 V = 10 Amperes. Charge is calculated by multiplying 10 A*30 s = 300 C.

Tex, an 85.0 kilogram rodeo bull rider is thrown from the bull after a short ride. The 520. kilogram bull chases after Tex at 13
Julli [10]
The question above can be answered through using the concept of Conservation of Momentum which may be expressed as,
                 m1v1 + m2v2 = mTvT
where m1 and v1 are mass and initial velocity of Tex, 2s are that of the bull, and the Ts are the total. Then substituting,
                    (85 kg)(3 m/s) + (520 kg)(13 m/s) = (520 + 85)(vT)
The value of vT obtained from above equation is 11.6 m/s
