To answer that question, we don't care what the highest and lowest
levels of the wave are, or how far apart they are. We only need to be
able to identify the highest point on the wave, and keep track of how
often those pass by us.
You said it takes 4 seconds for a complete wave to pass by.
Through the sheer power of intellect, I'm able to take that information
and calculate that 1/4 of the wave passes by in 1 second.
There's your frequency . . . 1/4 per second, or 0.25 Hz.
Answer:
If the velocity is constant, then there is no acceleration. That is, the value of the acceleration is 0.
Explanation:
Answer:
The momentum of an object is defined as the mass of the object times the velocity of the object, as P = m*v.
So the equipment needed would be:
Something to measure the mass of the object, like a balance.
Something to measure the speed of the object, like a doppler radar, or a simpler thing may be a cronometer, with that you can measure the amount of time that the object needs to travel a given distance, and with that you can obtain the speed of the object.
Now you can notice that speed is different than velocity, this is true, velocity is a vector, so this has a direction, then you need something to fix the direction in which the object moves, in this way you can determine the velocity.
Peer review is important because it is used by scientists to decided which results should be published in a scientific journal
