The person that would win tug-of-war would be the person who pushes harder at the ground. Newton's Third Law of Physics is the reason for this - for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Which is not a benefit of a sporting organization? a. To control all of the people in the community b. Bringing people together

Anit [1.1K]

Answer: a. To control all of the people in the community

Explanation:

Although the acceleration due to gravity is the same on all objects, why do a flower petal

Inessa [10]

We know that acceleration due to gravity is the same for all objects. But if we drop a flower petal and a hammer from the same height, the hammer falls faster. Why does this happen?

Let me try to explain. The petal falls slower as the resistance it faces by air slows it down much more. Even though the hammer is also affected by this resistance, the speed decrease is negligible due to its weight.

To simplify, a petal is much lighter than a hammer. Even though gravity accelerates them at the same speeds, the petal slows down due to air resistance but the hammer doesn't, as its weight counteracts the air resistance.

I may be confusing at times, so please ask me if you want anything clarified :)

Hope this helps you!

If an ocean wave passes a stationary point every 5 s and has a velocity of 10 m/s, what is the wavelength of the wave

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

As Per Provided Information

Velocity of wave v is 10m/s

These ocean wave passes a stationary point every 5 s ( It's time period)

First we calculate the frequency of ocean wave .

Using Formulae

$\blue{\boxed{\bf \: \nu = \cfrac{1}{v}}}$

here

v is the velocity of wave .

$\sf\longrightarrow \nu \: = \cfrac{1}{10} \\ \\ \\ \sf\longrightarrow \nu \: = 0.1Hz$

Now calculating the wavelength of the wave .

Using Formulae 

$\boxed{ \bf \lambda = \cfrac{v}{ \nu}}$

Substituting the value and we obtain

$\sf \longrightarrow \lambda \: = \cfrac{10}{0.1} \\ \\ \\ \sf \longrightarrow \lambda \: = \cancel\cfrac{10}{0.1} \\ \\ \\ \sf \longrightarrow \lambda \: =100m$
