A wave has a wavelength of 4.9 m and a velocity of 9.8 m/s. The medium through which this wave is traveling is then heated so th
garri49 [273]

Answer:

the wavelength is 9.8 meters

Explanation:

We can use the relationship:

Velocity = wavelenght*frequency.

Initially we have:

wavelenght = 4.9m

velocity = 9.8m/s

then:

9.8m/s =  4.9m*f

f = 9.8m/s/4.9m =  2*1/s

now, if the velocity is doubled and the frequency remains the same, we have:

2*9.8m/s = wavelenght*2*1/s

wavelenght = (2*9.8m/s)*(1/2)s = 9.8 m

Describe the full water cycle
sergey [27]

The water cycle (hydro-logic cycle), explains the constant motion of water on, above and below the surface of the Earth. The mass of water on Earth stays equally constant over time, although the severe portion of the water goes into the major reservoirs of ice, fresh water, saline water and atmospheric water is variable depending on a wide range of climatic variables. The water moves from one reservoir to another, such as from river to ocean, or from the ocean to the atmosphere, by the physical processes of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, infiltration, surface runoff, and subsurface flow. In doing so, the water goes through different forms: liquid, solid (ice) and vapor.

Using 6400 km as the radius of Earth, calculate how high above Earth’s surface you would have to be in order to weigh 1/16th of
FrozenT [24]
Gravity obeys the inverse square law.  At 6400 km above the center of the Earth (Earth's surface) you weigh x.  Twice that reduces your weight to 1/4th.  Four times that height reduces your weight to 1/16th.  4 times 6400 km is 25,600 km.  But that is above the center of the earth, and the question requests the height above the surface, so we deduct 6400 km to arrive at our final answer:  19,200 km.

Incidentally, it doesn't exactly work the opposite way.  At the center of the Earth the mass would be equally distributed around you, and you would therefore be weightless.

If a transformer has a primary with 100 V and fifty coils, and a secondary that yields 20 V, how many coils are on the secondary
melomori [17]
Ideally, if all the magnetic of one winding cuts the other winding, and there isn't any loss in the transformer core or the resistance of the wire, then the voltage across each winding is proportional to the number of turns in its coil.

If you apply 100 V to a winding of 50 turns, then a winding that yields 20 volts
must be wound with

(20/100) of 50 turns = 10 turns
