Answer:

as the period decreases, the frequency and energy of the wave increase

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields, described by maxwell's equations, the speed of the wave is called the speed of light

c = λ f

E = E cos (kx - wt)

Angular velocity is related to frequency and period.

w = 2π f = 2π / T

Let's analyze what happens when the wave period decreases, angular velocity and frequency increase.

This increase in frequency is reflected with the Planck equation in wave energy

E = h f

Therefore the wave carries more energy and can lead to stronger interactions with matter.

In summary, as the period decreases, the frequency and energy of the wave increase

How does the abundance of hydrogen and helium support the Big Bang Theory?

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Hydrogen and helium account for nearly all the nuclear matter in today's universe. This is consistent with the standard or "big bang" model. ... Basically , the hydrogen-helium abundance helps us to model the expansion rate of the early universe. If it had been faster, there would be more neutrons and more helium.

A car on a straight flat road races a boat on a calm canal parallel to the road. The car has a constant acceleration of 1.95m/s2

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

The winner of the race is the boat because the it get to the goal a time of t=42.42 seg

Explanation:

The problem has tow steps the first one is the time takes each vehicule to get the top speed.

$V_{f} = V_{o} + a*t \\V_{o}= 0 \frac{m}{s} \\t = \frac{V_{f} }{a} \\t_{1} = \frac{41 \frac{m}{s} }{1.95 \frac{m}{s^{2} } }=21.02 s \\t_{2} = \frac{32 \frac{m}{s} }{6.5 \frac{m}{s^{2} } } =4.92 s$

Now after they take the top speed have to know who get first to the goal

$x_{f}= x_{o} + v_{o}*t + \frac{1}{2}* a *t^{2}\\ a=0 \frac{m}{s^{2} }\\ x_{o}= 0$

So the speed Vo is now the final velocity calculated before

$t= \frac{x_{f} }{V_{o} } \\t1= \frac{1200m }{41\frac{m}{s} } = 29.2 s\\t2= \frac{1200m }{32\frac{m}{s} } = 37.5 s\\$

$t1_{total}= 21.2+29.2=50.22 s\\ t2_{total}= 4.91+37.5=42.41 s$

An astronaut in the International Space Station cannot stand on a weighing scale. But an astronaut inside a rotating space stati

VLD [36.1K]

The astronaut when positioned on a scale of an international space station that is static in rotational motion, and turning around the earth, will have no effect, since there is no external force acting on it. This is in perpetual free fall around the earth.

When an astronaut stands on a scale within a rotating space station, he will have the Rotational Centripetal Force acting on it, said Force, from the inside acting as 'Artificial Gravity' which will generate a given measurement on the scale.
