Answer: 0.4m
Explanation:
Given that:
Amplitude of wave = 2.0 m
Wavelength (λ)= ?
Frequency F = 500Hz
Speed V = 200 m/s
The wavelength is measured in metres, and represented by the symbol λ.
So, apply the formula:
Wavespeed V= Frequency F xwavelength λ
200m/s = 500Hz x λ
λ = 200m/s / 500Hz
λ = 0.4m
Thus, the wavelength is 0.4 metres
Answer by mimiwhatsup: B) Velocity is a vector and requires a direction to completely describe it.
Velocity is the speed and direction of an object in motion.
1 kg of water = 1 L = 1 dm³
762 g of water = 762 cm³
Inertness, especially with regard to effort, motion, action, and the like; inactivity; sluggishness.
Answer:
For elliptical orbits: seldom
For circular orbits: always
Explanation:
We start by analzying a circular orbit.
For an object moving in circular orbit, the direction of the acceleration (centripetal acceleration) is always perpendicular to the direction of motion of the object.
Since acceleration has the same direction of the force (according to Newton's second law of motion), this means that the direction of the force (the centripetal force) is always perpendicular to the velocity of the object.
So for a circular orbit,
the direction of the velocity of the satellite is always perpendicular to the net force acting upon the satellite.
Now we analyze an elliptical orbit.
An elliptical orbit correponds to a circular orbit "stretched". This means that there are only 4 points along the orbit in which the acceleration (and therefore, the net force) is perpendicular to the direction of motion (and so, to the velocity) of the satellite. These points are the 4 points corresponding to the intersections between the axes of the ellipse and the orbit itself.
Therefore, for an elliptical orbit,
the direction of the velocity of the satellite is seldom perpendicular to the net force acting upon the satellite.
