Why does the frequency of a wave increase as the wavelength decreases? A) because the wave speed remains constant B) because the

amplitude of the wave must remain constant C) because the frequency must get larger to increase the speed D) because the wavelength must get smaller to decrease the speed Eliminate

Answer: A)

Explanation: A wave with a constant speed is inversely proportional to the wavelength. So, the wavelength would decrease as the frequency of wave increases.

Answer:

A) because wave speed remains constant.

Explanation:

The wave speed of a wave in a medium depends on the nature of the medium.

For transverse waves in a string given by,

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{m}}, T = tension , m = linear density

For longitudinal waves in a solid,

v = \sqrt{\frac{ξ}{ρ}},  ξ = modulus of elasticity, ρ = density

Like wise for different media, different properties and parameters govern the speed of waves moving through them.

It is important to mind in v = fλ ,f or λ does not influence on speed of wave in a medium but shows how f and λ varies as a wave propagate in a medium(/media).

Which of the following are possible causes of mass extinctions that scientists have identified
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

over harvesting, pollution, introduction of invasive species such as new predators and food competitors

Explanation:

The main cause of mass extinction is Humans cause extinction of a species through overharvesting. The second main  cause is pollution ., introduction of invasive species such as new predators and food competitors, habitat destruction, overhunting and other influences. Another very important cause of mass extinction is the unsustainable human population growth.

The five mass extinction events are

Ordovician Mass Extinction

Devonian Mass Extinction

 Permian Mass Extinction

Triassic -Jurassic Mass Extinction

and Cretaceous -Tertiary (or the K-T) Mass Extinction.

The Earth’s surface is not made of
Ad libitum [116K]

[/caption]Most of the Earth surface, about 70%, is covered with water. The remaining 30% is made up of the seven continental landmasses. Underneath the water that fills the oceans, and the dirt and plants that cover the continents, the Earth's surface layer is made of rock.

Hope this helps!

A typical flying insect applies an average force equal to twice its weight during each downward stroke while hovering. Take the
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Average power output of insect is 2.42W

Explanation:

Workdone by constant force during displacement is given by:

W= F× d cos theta

Where theta is angle between F and d.

Power output due to the force over the interval time is given by:

P= Workdone/change in time

Ginen:

Mass of insect,m= 7.0g= 7/1000 = 0.07kg

Downward force applied by insect,F= 2mg

Distance moved by the wing each stroke=1.5cm=1.5/100= 0.015m

W= F× d cos theta

Where theta=0° since force is in the same direction as the displacement.

W= 2mg×d

W= 2× 0.07 × 9.8 × 0.015

W= 0.02058J

Power output = W/ change in time

Since wings make 117strokes each second time interval is 1/117 = 8.5×10^-3seconds

Power= 0.02058/(8.5×10^-3)

Power= 2.42W

Suppose that you measure the length of a spaceship, at rest relative to you, to be 400 m. How long will you measure it to be if
Rashid [163]

Answer:

<em>264 m</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The complete question is

Suppose that you measure the length of a spaceship, at rest relative to you, to be 400 m. How long will you measure it to be if it flies past you at a speed of v = 0.75c

using the length contraction relationship,

l = l_{0} \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2}  }

where \beta = \frac{v}{c}

l is the relativistic length

l_{0} is the actual length = 400 m

v is the velocity of the spaceship

c is the speed of light

since v = 0.75c

v/c = 0.75

substituting, we have

l = 400 * \sqrt{1 - 0.75 ^{2}  } = 400 x 0.66 = <em>264 m</em>

A loop of wire is placed in a magnetic field such that it has a flux, LaTeX: \phi ϕ, through it. The loop is compressed so that
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

B'= 3.333 B

Explanation:

Lets take

Initial area = A

Magnetic field = B

The area after compression

A'=0.3 A

Magnetic field = B'

We know that flux ,Ф

Ф = B A

Given that flux is constant so

B A = B' A'

B A=B' x 0.3 A

B'= 3.333 B

It means that magnetic field will increase.
