A particle is moving at a speed less than c / 2 . If the speed of the particle is doubled, what happens to its momentum?

If the speed of the particle is doubled. Then the value of the momentum also gets doubled.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

The sum of an entity's speed and mass is known as its linear momentum, translational momentum, or simply momentum in Newton's laws of motion. It has both a magnitude and a direction, making it a vector quantity. The SI unit of momentum is kg-m / s.

Let m be the mass and v be the velocity of an object. Then the momentum is given as,

P = mv   kg-m / s

A particle is moving at a speed less than c / 2. If the speed of the particle is doubled.

P = m(2v)

P = 2mv

If the particle's speed is twice. The momentum's value is then increased by two.

More about the momentum link is given below.

<span>9.50x10^2 newtons A pascal is defined as 1 newton per square meter. So let's multiply the pressure by the surface area of the box lid. F = 1.00x10^-2 m^2 * 9.50x10^4 N/m^2 = 9.50x10^2 N So it will take 9.50x10^2 newtons of force to remove the lid from the box.</span>

A radio have a wavelength of 0.3m and travels at a speed of 300,000,000 m/s. What is the frequency of this wave?​
Ilya [14]

The frequency of the wave is 1\cdot 10^9 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency, the wavelength and the speed of a wave are related by the following equation:

c=f \lambda

where

c is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency

\lambda is the wavelength

For the radio wave in this problem,

\lambda = 0.3 m

c=300,000,000 m/s = 3\cdot 10^8 m/s

Therefore, the frequency is:

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}=\frac{3\cdot 10^8}{0.3}=1\cdot 10^9 Hz

A stationary speed gun emits a microwave beam at 2.10*10^10Hz. It reflects off a car and returns 1030 Hz higher. What is the spe
lana [24]

Answer: V = 15 m/s

Explanation:

As  stationary speed gun emits a microwave beam at 2.10*10^10Hz. It reflects off a car and returns 1030 Hz higher. The observed frequency the car will be experiencing will be addition of the two frequency. That is,

F = 2.1 × 10^10 + 1030 = 2.100000103×10^10Hz

Using doppler effect formula

F = C/ ( C - V) × f

Where

F = observed frequency

f = source frequency

C = speed of light = 3×10^8

V = speed of the car

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

2.100000103×10^10 = 3×10^8/(3×10^8 -V) × 2.1×10^10

2.100000103×10^10/2.1×10^10 = 3×108/(3×10^8 - V)

1.000000049 = 3×10^8/(3×10^8 - V)

Cross multiply

300000014.7 - 1.000000049V = 3×10^8

Collect the like terms

1.000000049V = 14.71429

Make V the subject of formula

V = 14.71429/1.000000049

V = 14.7 m/s

The speed of the car is 15 m/s approximately

How are electromagnetic waves able to travel without a medium?
vazorg [7]
Electromagnetic waves differ from mechanical waves in that they do not require a medium to propagate. this means that electromagnetic waves can travel not only trough air and solid materials, but also trough the vacuum of space.
