It's 3.6 meters per second less than my speed was
at 4:19 PM last Tuesday.
Does that tell you anything ?
Why not ?
The sentence can be completed as follows:
The wavelength of an electromagnetic waves is the spatial distance between two successive troughs.
Note that the wavelength of a wave can also measured as the spatial distance between two successive crests of the wave. Also note that the second part of the sentence ("also known as the period") is not true, because period is another thing (in fact, the period is the time interval between two successive troughs).
Answer:
The fireman will continue to descend, but with a constant speed.
Explanation:
In kinetic friction <em>(which is the case discussed here) </em>since the fireman is already in motion because of a certain force, once the frictional force matches the normal force, the fireman will stop accelerating and continue moving at a constant rate with the original speed he had. We will need a force greater than the normal force acting on the fireman to cause a deceleration.
We need to understand the difference between static friction and kinetic friction.
Static friction occurs in objects that are stationary, while kinetic friction occurs in objects that are already in motion.
In static friction, when the frictional force matches the weight or normal force of the object, the object remains stationary.
While in kinetic friction, when the frictional force matches the normal force, the object will stop accelerating. This is the case of the fireman sliding down the pole as discussed above.
Answer:
Explanation:
When we accelerate in a car on a straight path we tend to lean backward because our lower body part which is directly in contact with the seat of the car gets accelerated along with it but the upper the upper body experiences this force later on due to its own inertia. This force is accordance with Newton's second law of motion and is proportional to the rate of change of momentum of the upper body part.
Conversely we lean forward while the speed decreases and the same phenomenon happens in the opposite direction.
While changing direction in car the upper body remains in its position due to inertia but the lower body being firmly in contact with the car gets along in the direction of the car, seems that it makes the upper body lean in the opposite direction of the turn.
On abrupt change in the state of motion the force experienced is also intense in accordance with the Newton's second law of motion.
