We actually are the same weight as they are on dry land due to gravity acting at a constant acceleration on the mass of the object. Objects due however "appear" to weigh less in water. This is due to what is known as buoyancy. Buoyancy is actually the upward force of a liquid acting on an object that is placed in it.

What is the Doppler effect? (2 points) Select one: a. The apparent change in frequency of waves due to the motion of a source b.
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Option A

The apparent change in frequency of waves due to the motion of a source

Explanation:

Doppler effect is the apparent change in frequency of waves due to the motion of a source. Doppler effect occurs when the source of waves moves towards the observer which causes emission of successive wave crests to be closer to the observer compared to the previous wave crest. This phenomenon was named after Austrian Physicist called Christian Doppler

What is the velocity of a jet plane that travels 48 meters East in 4 seconds?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

the speed of a jet plane = v = 12 m/s

Explanation:

jet plane that travels 48 meters East in 4 seconds?

<u>use the velocity as distance over time formula = v = d / t</u>

where:

t = 4 sec

d = 48 m

plugin values into the formula

v = <u>  48 m  </u>

        4 sec

v = 12 m/s

therefore,

the speed of a jet plane = v = 12 m/s

A satellite of mass ????=238 kg is in circular orbit around the Earth at an altitude above the earth's surface equal to the eart
lesya [120]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) the speed=

V=√2gr²/2r

=√gr/2

√10*637/2

V=31850m/s²

Magnitude of the acceleration

a=Gm/r²

10*238/(6370)²

2380/12740

=0.187
