Answer:

As the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave _decrease__ the frequency of the wave _increase_______.

Explanation:

What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength?

Wavelength and frequency of light are closely related. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength.

That number, also known as the frequency, will be larger for a short-wavelength wave than for a long-wavelength wave. The equation that relates wavelength and frequency is:

V= fλ

where v= velocity

f= frequency

λ = wavelength

⇒ f = v/λ

also f ∝ 1/λ

For electromagnetic radiation, the speed is equal to the speed of light, c, and the equation becomes:

C= fλ

where c= Speed of light

f= frequency

λ = wavelength

⇒ f = v/λ

also f ∝ 1/λ

A car travels at a steady 40.0 m/s around a horizontal curve of radius 200 m. What is the minimumcoefficient of static friction

zhenek [66]

Answer:

c. 0.816

Explanation:

Let the mass of car be 'm' and coefficient of static friction be 'μ'.

Given:

Speed of the car (v) = 40.0 m/s

Radius of the curve (R) = 200 m

As the car is making a circular turn, the force acting on it is centripetal force which is given as:

Centripetal force is, $F_c=\frac{mv^2}{R}$

The frictional force is given as:

Friction = Normal force × Coefficient of static friction

$f=\mu N$

As there is no vertical motion, therefore, $N=mg$ . So,

$f=\mu mg$

Now, the centripetal force is provided by the frictional force. Therefore,

Frictional force = Centripetal force

$f=F_c\\\\\mu mg=\frac{mv^2}{R}\\\\\mu=\frac{v^2}{Rg}$

Plug in the given values and solve for 'μ'. This gives,

$\mu = \frac{(40\ m/s)^2}{200\ m\times 9.8\ m/s^2}\\\\\mu=\frac{1600\ m^2/s^2}{1960\ m^2/s^2}\\\\\mu=0.816$

Therefore, option (c) is correct.

A boat is drifting with a speed of 5.0\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}5.0 s m 5, point, 0, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s,

zepelin [54]

Answer:

$d=42m(-\hat{i})$

Explanation:

For this problem, we need to apply the formulas of constant accelerated motion.

To obtain the boat displacement we need to calculate the displacement because of the river flow and the displacement done because of the boat motor.

for the river:

$d_r=v*t\\d_r=5m/s*6s\\d_r=30m(\hat{i})$

for the boat:

$x=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\\\x=\frac{1}{2}*4.0m/s*(6s)^2\\\\\\x=72m(-\hat{i})$

So the final displacement is given by:

$d=dr+x\\d=30m-72m\\d=42m(-\hat{i})$

Answer:

So Nessa went so fast it made her pass the tile in a second. Lets take a look at this problem, It says "the" tile so we should assume that it means 1 tile. Then draw a diagram representing that tile then you should have your problem finished. Hope that helped and I'm willing to help if you have anymore questions!
