Answer:

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

Explanation:

We are going to use the formula  v=fλ

Where v= velocity of radio waves

f= frequency

λ= wavelength of wave

  • radio waves are electromagnetic waves and as such they have the speed of light which is 3*10^{8}m/s.
  • also when a wave travels from one medium to another, the wavelength changes while the frequency remains the same.
  • calculating for the frequency of the wave in air also gives us the frequency in the window glass.

f=\frac{v}{λ}

v=3*10^{8}m/s.

λ=36.5 cm = 36.5/100= 0.365m

f=\frac{3*10^{8}m/s.}{0.365m}

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

A child is riding a bike at a speed of 6m/s with a total kinetic energy of 1224J. If the mass of the child is 30kg, what is the
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

 Mass of bike = 38 kg.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is given by the expression, KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2, where m is the mass and v is the velocity.

Here speed of child riding bike = 6 m/s

Mass of child = 30 kg

Total kinetic energy = 1224 J

Let the mass of bike be, m kg

So, total mass of child and bike = (m + 30) kg

Substituting,

  1224 = \frac{1}{2}* (m+30)*6^2\\ \\ m+30=68\\ \\ m=38kg

So, mass of bike = 38 kg.

2.0 kg of solid gold (Au) at an initial temperature of 1000K is allowed to exchange heat with 1.5 kg of liquid gold at an initia
Elanso [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

The specific heat of gold is 129 J/kgC

It's melting point is 1336 K

It's Heat of fusion is 63000 J/kg

Assuming that the mixture will be solid, the thermal energy to solidify the gold has to be less than that needed to raise the solid gold to the melting point. So,

The first is E1 = 63000 J/kg x 1.5 = 94500 J

the second is E2 = 129 J/kgC x 2 kg x (1336–1000)K = 86688 J

Therefore, all solid is not correct. You will have a mixture of solid and liquid.

For more detail, the difference between E1 and E2 is 7812 J, and that will melt

7812/63000 = 0.124 kg of the solid gold

State two advantages of a lead-acid accumulator over a leclanche cell​
aniked [119]

Answer:

They are rechargeable

They have a longer life span

They are reusable

Explanation:

Lead acid accumulators and leclanche cells are types of electrochemical cells.

Leclanche cells are primary cells. Primary cells produce chemical reactions through which the electric current generated is irreversible.

Lead Acid Accumulators are secondary cells in which electric current generated is reversible.

This makes lead acid accumulators reusable, more durable and they have a longer life span.
