\(\lambda = \dfrac{3 \times 10^{17} \text{ nm s}^{-1}}{6 \times 10^{15} \text{ s}^{-1}} = 50\) nm
This wavelength (50 nm) lies in the extreme UV (EUV) region. Note: \(c = 3\times10^8\) m/s \(= 3\times10^{17}\) nm/s.
These two processes are central to the study of communication and culture:
- Enculturation: The natural, lifelong process by which individuals absorb the cultural values, language, religious beliefs, social norms, and traditions of their own community โ usually from parents, peers, and society. A Pakistani child raised in Lahore is enculturated into Pakistani norms without actively choosing them.
- Acculturation: A deliberate and often effortful process of learning and internalising the cultural rules of a different culture. A Pakistani professional who settles in the United States must acculturate โ adopting new social practices, professional norms, and communication styles. Failure to acculturate can result in cultural shock, a state of anxiety and communication breakdown that occurs when people are forced to operate within a radically unfamiliar cultural environment.
Both processes have direct implications for mass communicators who must craft messages for multicultural audiences.
Using the graph of Energy Used per Meter vs. Speed for running and walking: at what speed $s$ (in miles per hour) is the energy used per meter during running exactly twice the energy used per meter during walking? Based on the graph, $s$ lies between:
From the Energy vs. Speed graph:
- The walking curve rises gradually from about 75 J/m at low speed to roughly 150 J/m around 4โ5 mph.
- The running curve starts high (~150 J/m at low speed) and decreases to a minimum around 4 mph, then rises again.
We look for the speed where the running energy is exactly double the walking energy. By reading the graph carefully:
At $s \approx 2.7$ mph: running energy โ 150 J/m, walking energy โ 75 J/m. Running = 2 ร walking. โ
This speed falls in the range 2.5 to 3.0 mph.
