Answer: A

Explanation: The relation between velocity and frequency of the waves is:

f = v/λ

where f is frequency, v is the velocity and λ is the wavelenght.

So you can see that, if the 4 waves have the same velocity, then the one with the smallest wavelenght (because it is in the denominator) will have the highest frequency.

The one with the smallest frequency is the first one (you can see it) so the correct option will be A

Vector vector a has a magnitude of 29 units and points in the positive y-direction. when vector vector b is added to vector a ,

Nutka1998 [239]

Good morning.

We have:

$\mathsf{\overset{\to}{a} = 29\overset{\to}{j}}$

Where j is the unitary vector in the direction of the y-axis.

We have that

$\mathsf{\overset{\to}{a}+\overset{\to}{b} = -18\overset{\to}{j}}$

We add the vector -a to both sides:

$\mathsf{\overset{\to}{b} = -18\overset{\to}{j} -\overset{\to}{a} = -18\overset{\to}{j} -29\overset{\to}{j}}\\ \\ \mathsf{\overset{\to}{b}=-47\overset{\to}{j}}$

Therefore, the magnitude of b is 47 units.

If you travel 1.7 km north from your house at noon, and at 6:00 PM you travel 5.4 km south, what is your displacement? 3.7 km no

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer

3.7 Km south

Explanation

The definition of displacement is the distance traveled in a specific direction. It is the vector quantity. We add displacements like the way we add vectors.

Taking the direction towards North to be positive (+1.7 Km), the distance towards south would be negative (-5.4 Km).

Now lets add the two values.

(+1.7) + (-5.4) = 1.7 - 5.4

= - 3.7 Km But negative was towards south.

∴ Answer = 3.7 Km south.
