Answer:

He is wrong!

Explanation:

Frequency refers to how many wave lengths pass in a second and speed is how fast the wave is traveling for example the speed of light goes really fast but has a mid-level frequency.

Hope this helps! ;-)

Which of the following has the most momentum?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:you riding your bike at 12m/s

Explanation: this is because momentum P = mass x velocity. With a bigger mass and a velocity of about 12m/s, you really have a great momentum.

Two asteroids identical to those above collide at right angles and stick together; i.e, their initial velocities were perpendicu
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

velocity = 62.89 m/s  in 58 degree measured from the x-axis

Explanation:

Relevant information:

Before the collision, asteroid A of mass 1,000 kg moved at 100 m/s, and asteroid B of mass 2,000 kg moved at 80 m/s.

Two asteroids moving with velocities collide at right angles and stick together. Asteroid A initially moving to right direction and asteroid B initially move in the upward direction.

Before collision Momentum of A = 1000 x 100 = $ 10^5$ kg - m/s in the right direction.

Before collision Momentum of B = 2000 x 80 = 1.6 x $ 10^5$  kg - m/s in upward direction.

Mass of System of after collision = 1000 + 2000 = 3000 kg

Now applying the Momentum Conservation, we get

Initial momentum in right direction = final momentum in right direction = $ 10^5$

And, Initial momentum in upward direction = Final momentum in upward direction = 1.6 x $ 10^5$

So, $ V_x = \frac{10^5}{3000} $  = $ \frac{100}{3} $  m/s

and $ V_y=\frac{160}{3}$  m/s

Therefore, velocity is = $ \sqrt{V_x^2 + V_y^2} $

                                   = $ \sqrt{(\frac{100}{3})^2 + (\frac{160}{3})^2} $

                                   = 62.89 m/s

And direction is

tan θ = $ \frac{V_y}{V_x}$     = 1.6

therefore, $ \theta = \tan^{-1}1.6 $

                   = $ 58 ^{\circ}$  from x-axis

Elliot jumps up and down on a pogo stick. He weighs 600.N, and his pogo stick has a spring with spring constant 1100N/m. What is
tia_tia [17]

From conservation of energy, the height he will reach when he has gravitational potential energy 250J is 0.42 meters approximately

The given weight of Elliot is 600 N

From conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy of Elliot must have been converted to elastic potential energy. Then, the elastic potential energy from the spring was later converted to maximum potential energy P.E of Elliot.

P.E = mgh

where mg = Weight = 600

To find the height Elliot will reach, substitute all necessary parameters into the equation above.

250 = 600h

Make h the subject of the formula

h = 250/600

h = 0.4167 meters

Therefore, the height he will reach when he has gravitational potential energy 250J is 0.42 meters approximately

Which statement describes a scientific theory?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

A theory changes based on new observations and testing.

Explanation:

A scientific theory is a product of multiple trials and repeated experiments. It usually follows after carefully conducting and testing the validity of the hypothesis.

A scientific theory provides an explanation into how something behaves.

A law just states a finding will not explain it.

Most theories are tenable and can be improved upon when new observations and testing are carried out.
