You'd have to say that the statement is false. It's a matter of wording.

The things called "satellites" are designed to enter orbit of something ...
usually the Earth, but it could be another body.

The spacecraft that are designed to "fly by" something and then keep going
are usually called "space probes", not "satellites".

The tendency of an object to resist any change in its motion is known as?

It's inertia. A rule that you see every day, for example a brick will stay in the same spot unless a force acts on it.

The wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves CANNOT be 400 cm.

The given parameters:

<em>Length of the string, L = 100 cm</em>

<em />

The wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves is calculated as follows;

$L = \frac{n \lambda}{2} \\\\n\lambda = 2L\\\\\lambda = \frac{2L}{n}$

for first mode: n = 1

$\lambda = \frac{2\times 100 \ cm}{1} \\\\\lambda = 200 \ cm$

for second mode: n = 2

$\lambda = \frac{2L}{2} = L = 100 \ cm$

For the third mode: n = 3

$\lambda = \frac{2L}{3} \\\\\lambda = \frac{2 \times 100}{3} = 67 \ cm$

For fourth mode: n = 4

$\lambda = \frac{2L}{4} \\\\\lambda = \frac{2 \times 100}{4} = 50 \ cm$

Thus, we can conclude that, the wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves CANNOT be 400 cm.

The complete question is below:

How many hydrogen atoms are in a water molecule?

earnstyle [38]

The subscript after the element indicates the number of atoms of that element in the molecule. So, in H20, the subscript after the H, which stands for hydrogen, is 2. This means that there are 2 hydrogen atoms in a water molecule.

Hope this helps! :)
