Electromagnetic waves, which include light, consist of vibrations of electric and magnetic fields, and they all travel at the speed of light.

a.) fm radio. find the wavelength of an fm radio station signal broadcasting at a frequency of 102.5 mhz .
b.) x rays. x rays have a wavelength of about 0.200 nm . what is their frequency?
c.) the big bang. microwaves with a wavelength of 1.20 mm , left over from soon after the big bang, have been detected. what is their frequency?
d.) sunburn. sunburn (and skin cancer) are caused by ultraviolet light waves having a frequency of around 1.04×1016 hz . what is their wavelength?
e.) seti. it has been suggested that extraterrestrial civilizations (if they exist) might try to communicate by using electromagnetic waves having the same frequency as that given off by the spin flip of the electron in hydrogen, which is 1.42 ghz . to what wavelength should we tune our telescopes in order to search for such signals?
f.) microwave ovens. microwave ovens cook food with electromagnetic waves of frequency around 2.45 ghz . what wavelength do these waves have?

Why does the equilibrium position of the spring change when a mass is added to the spring? will the mass oscillate around the new equilibrium position of the spring or the previous position without a mass attached to the spring? if the equilibrium position of the spring changes by 20 cm (assuming no initial mass) when a mass is added to the spring with constant 4.9 kg/s^2, what is the mass of the object attached to the spring?

Suppose that a cylindrical tank 6 meters high with a radius of 2 meters is filled to the rim with water. the tank is buried so that the top of the tank is 1 meter below ground level. the space above the tank is not filled with water. calculate how much work needs to be done by a pump to pump the water out of the tank up to ground level. (the water weighs 9,800 newtons per cubic meter.)
