Before we understood that objects have a tendency to maintain their velocity in a straight line unless acted upon by a net force

, people thought that objects have a tendency to stop on their own. This happened because a specific force was not yet understood. What was that force?

Answer:Friction force

Explanation:

The frictional force is responsible for stopping the moving object.

The friction force is provided by nature in the form of air resistance, fluid resistance, Surface resistance.

For surface resistance, the friction force is of two types namely kinetic friction force and static friction force.

Static friction acts when the object is stationary and a force is applied to cause the motion while kinetic friction acts when the body starts moving.

kinetic friction is lesser is in magnitude as compared to static friction.

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

"332.8 m/s" is the right solution.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Wavelength,

\lambda=0.65  \ m

Frequency,

f = 512 \ Hz

As we know,

⇒  Speed=Frequency\times Wavelength

or,

⇒  V=f\times \lambda

By putting the given values in the above relation, we get

⇒     =512\times 0.65

⇒      =332.8 \ m/s
