Answer:

C 4 meters

Explanation:

Wavelength is the distance between two successive crests or between two successive troughs.

Here the distance between the top peak and the bottom peak is 2 m as seen from the figure given which is half a wavelength .

So the wavelength is twice this and is 4 meters.

Wavelength is defined as distance between two troughs or two crests !!

so in this wavelength is 4 metres !!

Two positive charge spheres, the spheres are separated by 0.40 m. The charge on the first sphere is 100 microcoulombs and the

agasfer [191]

Answer: 168.75 N

Explanation:

first, let's convert microcoulombs to coulombs

q1 = 1e-4 C

q2 = 3e-5 C

r = 0.4 m

then use the equation Fe = $\frac{kq_{1} q_{2}}{r^{2} }$

plug in values --> F = (9e9*1e-4*3e-5)/(0.4)^2

F = 168.75 N

How does the 3rd Newtons Law apply to kicking a soccer ball?

tigry1 [53]

If you kick a soccer ball, you exert a force on it in a certain direction.
The soccer ball will exert an equal amount of force but in the opposite direction, which is on your foot. This is felt as ‘recoil’

A package is dropped from an airplane flying horizontally with constant speed V in the positive xdirection. The package is relea

k0ka [10]

Answer:

$D=V*\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g} } -\frac{H}{4}$

Explanation:

From the vertical movement, we know that initial speed is 0, and initial height is H, so:

$Y_{f}=Y_{o}-g*\frac{t^{2}}{2}$

$0=H-g*\frac{t^{2}}{2}$ solving for t:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g} }$

Now, from the horizontal movement, we know that initial speed is V and the acceleration is -g/4:

$X_{f}=X_{o}+V*t+a*\frac{t^{2}}{2}$ Replacing values:

$D=V*\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g} }-\frac{g}{4}*\frac{1}{2} *(\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g} })^{2}$

Simplifying:

$D=V*\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g} } -\frac{H}{4}$
