1.  When an object is moving away from us, the light from the object is known as redshift, and when an object is moving towards us, the light from the object is known as blueshift.

2.  A wavelength increases in size, and its frequency, and energy decrease.

3.  The frequency of a wave increases, and its wavelength decreases.

Redshift is an important term for astronomers. The term can be taken literally. The wavelengths of light are stretched and perceived as shifting toward the red portion of the spectrum. The same thing happens to sound waves when the source moves relative to the observer.

As the wave frequency decreases, the wavelength increases as long as the wave velocity remains constant. If the wave speed stays the same as the frequency decreases, it means that fewer wave peaks or troughs pass through a given point in a given time period. The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency. Frequency and energy decrease with increasing wavelength.

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

a)   C = 4,012 10⁻¹⁴ F, b)  Q = 1.6 10⁻¹¹ C , c)   U = 3.21 10⁻¹¹ J

Explanation:

a) The capacitance of a capacitor is

       C = k e₀ A / d

Let's calculate

       C = 4 8.85 10⁻¹² 17 10⁻⁴ / 0.150 10⁻²

       C = 4,012 10⁻¹⁴ F

b) let's look  the charge

        C = Q / ΔV

         Q = C ΔV

         Q = 4,012 10⁻¹⁴ 400

         Q = 1.6 10⁻¹¹ C

c) The stored energy

        U = ½ C ΔV²

        U = ½ 4,012 10⁻¹⁴  400²

        U = 3.21 10⁻¹¹ J

Marco is conducting an experiment. He knows the wave that he is working with has a wavelength of 32. 4 cm. If he measures the fr
sineoko [7]

The true statement about the wave is that, the wave has traveled 97. 2 cm in 1 second.

In Physics, we define a wave as a disturbance along a medium that transfers energy. The wavelength of a wave is the distance covered by the wave while the frequency of the wave is the number of cycles of the wave completed per second.

The period of the wave is the inverse of the frequency of the wave. It is defined as the time taken for the wave to complete a cycle and it is measured in seconds.

The wave formula is given as;

v = λf

v = velocity of the wave (distance traveled by the wave in one second)

λ = wavelength of the wave

f = frequency of the wave

So;

λ = 32.4 cm

f =  3 hertz

v = 32.4 cm × 3 hertz

v = 97. 2 cms-1

Hence, the true statement about the wave is that, the wave has traveled 97. 2 cm in 1 second.

A swimmer bounces almost straight up from a diving board and falls vertically feet first into a pool.she starts with a speed of
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

a) 1.20227 seconds

b) 0.98674 m

c) 7.3942875 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 4.4 m/s

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=4.4-9.81\times t\\\Rightarrow \frac{-4.4}{-9.81}=t\\\Rightarrow t=0.44852\ s

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=4.4\times 0.44852+\frac{1}{2}\times -9.81\times 0.44852^2\\\Rightarrow s=0.98674\ m

b) Her highest height above the board is 0.98674 m

Total height she would fall is 0.98674+1.8 = 2.78674 m

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 2.78674=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{2.78674\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.75375\ s

a) Her feet are in the air for 0.75375+0.44852 = 1.20227 seconds

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+9.81\times 0.75375\\\Rightarrow v=7.3942875\ m/s

c) Her velocity when her feet hit the water is 7.3942875 m/s
