Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)

Speed = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Wavelength = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Frequency = (3 x 10⁸ m/s) / (0.03 m)

Frequency = (3 x 10⁸ / 0.03) (m / m-s)

Frequency = 1 x 10¹⁰ Hz (10 Gigahertz)

The wavelength of red light is 7 x 10^-7 meter. Express this value in nanometers

3241004551 [841]

The wavelength of the red light in "nanometer" is 7× $10^{2}$

Wavelength is given as : 7× $10^{-7}$ meter

1 nanometer = ( $10^{-9}$ meter)

Let X= value of the wavelength in nanometer.

1 nanometer = $10^{-9}$ meter

X nanometer = 7× $10^{-7}$ meter

If we Cross multiply

X nanometer = ( $\frac{ 7* 10^{-7} }{ 10^{-9} }$ )

X= 7× $10^{2}$ nanometer

Therefore, the wavelength in "nanometer" is 7× $10^{2}$

the amount of surface area of the block contact with the surface is 2.03*10^-2*m2 what is the average pressure exerted on the su

CaHeK987 [17]

Complete question:

A block of solid lead sits on a flat, level surface. Lead has a density of 1.13 x 104 kg/m3. The mass of the block is 20.0 kg. The amount of surface area of the block in contact with the surface is 2.03*10^-2*m2, What is the average pressure (in Pa) exerted on the surface by the block? Pa

Answer:

The average pressure exerted on the surface by the block is 9655.17 Pa

Explanation:

Given;

density of the lead, ρ = 1.13 x 10⁴ kg/m³

mass of the lead block, m = 20 kg

surface area of the area of the block, A = 2.03 x 10⁻² m²

Determine the force exerted on the surface by the block due to its weight;

F = mg

F = 20 x 9.8

F = 196 N

Determine the pressure exerted on the surface by the block

P = F / A

where;

P is the pressure

P = 196 / (2.03 x 10⁻²)

P = 9655.17 N/m²

P = 9655.17 Pa

Therefore, the average pressure exerted on the surface by the block is 9655.17 Pa
