Correct option A

The wave speed remains constant.So if the frequency increases then wavelength increases and if frequency decreases then wavelength increases to maintain the constant wave speed.

Answer: The correct answer is " because the wave speed remains constant".

Explanation:

The expression of the wavelength in terms of the frequency is as follows;

\lambda =\frac{c}{f}

Here, c is the speed of the light, f is the frequency of the wave and \lambda is the wavelength of the wave.

The wavelength of the wave is inversely proportional to the frequency of the wave as the speed of the wave remains constant.

If the wavelength of the wave decreases then the frequency of the wave increases.

Therefore, the frequency of a wave increases as the wavelength decreases because the wave speed remains constant.

The correct option is (A).

4. Some early mornings , dew drops can be found on grass or a car parked outside,
horsena [70]

In some early mornings , dew drops can be found on grass or a car parked outside, but not on other materials such as the sidewalk because  the night -time temperature on grass and the car went below the dew point, but  the temperature of the concrete did not drop enough to reach the dew point  level

Dew can be formed on any object when the temperature of the object drop. When this happen, the object will be cool which will eventually cool the surrounding air around the object.

Dew drops is as a result of condensation in the air. When the cool air causes the air vapor to convert to liquid. The dew will form when the temperature of the object balances with the dew point in the surrounding environment.

In some early mornings , dew drops can be found on grass or a car parked outside, but not on other materials such as the sidewalk because  the night -time temperature on grass and the car went below the dew point, but  the temperature of the concrete did not drop enough to reach the dew point  level

Therefore the correct option is therefore A

A comet speeds up as it approaches the Sun. Which statement about its kinetic energy is correct?(1 point)
krok68 [10]

A comet speeds up as it approaches the Sun. Which statement about its kinetic energy is correct option is - (1) The comet has no kinetic energy because it is in outer space.

  • Large ice and dust-based bodies known as comets circle the Sun. These ancient objects, which are best known for their long, streaming tails, are relics from the solar system's birth 4.6 billion years ago. The majority of comets are located outside of our solar system. Some are found in the Kuiper Belt, a vast disc that extends past Neptune's orbit. These are known as short-period comets. They orbit the Sun in lesser than 200 years.
  • The Outermost Layer, the solar system's sphere-shaped outer edge, which is nearly 50 times further from the Sun than the Kuiper Belt, is home to additional comets. Because of how much longer it takes them to orbit the Sun, these are known as long-period comets. The comet with the longest known orbit completes one orbit in excess of 250,000 years.

What is the force on a 1670kg elevator accelerating at 6m/s square?
marshall27 [118]

As per Newton's 2nd law

we know that

F = ma

it is product of mass and acceleration

here we know that

m = 1670 kg

also we know that

a = 6 m/s^2

so from above equation we have

F = 1670 * 6

F = 10020 N

so the force here will be 10020 N

If it takes 150N of force to move a box 10 meters. what is the work done on the box?
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

1500 Joules

Explanation:

Work = Force x Distance

When multiplying by 10 you simply shift all the digits to the

left and append a 0 to the end.

so 150 x 10 = 1500 Joules
