This is called, The Doppler effect.

In short terms, when the trains is farther away the wavelength of the whistles sound are longer and more separate from each other, and more farther away from you, as it gets closer to you, the wavelengths start getting shorter and more louder the closer it gets to you. Basically the <span>wavelengths change because of the motion of the source.</span>

Newton’s first law of motion was a giant leap forward in scientific thought during Newton’s time. Even today, the idea is someti

Answer: B

Explanation:

Newton's first law it's law of inertia.

An object at rest will remain at rest (or an object in motion in a straight line at a constant velocity will remain that way) unless it is acted by an unbalanced force.

In A for the ball to slow down and stop, an external force (like friction with air or the floor) needs to be taken in consideration.

In B we can see how we need to make a force on the wagon to make it move.

In C we have an other Newton 's law, force equals mass times acceleration (2nd law)

In D we can see how it does not move because the forces on the box are balanced.

D. potential energy, because there is a bunch of water pent up, essentially stationary, waiting to roll down the steep mountain from the peak, so to say. if the dam were to be removed it would become kinetic.
