A periodic wave travels from one medium to another. Which pair of variables are likely to change in the process?

Physics
1 answer:
Travka [436]4 years ago
4 0

A  velocity and wavelength

Explanation:

When a periodic wave travels from one medium to another, its velocity and wavelength changes in the process.

A periodic wave is a wave with repeating pattern.

  • When a wave crosses different medium with different densities, their velocity and wavelength changes.
  • This implies that wave causes disturbances in different ways.
  • This change in wavelength and velocity as a wave crosses two medium is known as refraction.
  • When a wave moves from a less dense medium to a denser one, the velocity reduces and the wavelength increases.

State the condition under which a satellite would move with escape velocity
elixir [45]
When the launch velocity is a bit less than the escape velocity, the satellite with time will find itself back to earth and when the speed is far beyond the escape velocity, the satellite with time, be lost in space.

The velocity of escape from the less massive Moon is about 2.4 km per second at its surface. ... A planet (or satellite) cannot long retain an atmosphere if the planet's escape velocity is low enough to be near the average velocity of the gas molecules making up the atmosphere.

A 6500 kg satellite orbits a planet. If its distance to the center of the planet is 9e6 m and its speed is 6.7e3 m/s, what is th
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

the gravitational force between the satellite and the planet is 32.4  * 10³N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the satellite, m = 6500 kg

Speed of the satellite, v = 6.7 × 10³ m/s

distance to the center of the planet = 9  × 10⁶m

Let F is the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted on the satellite by the planet. The centripetal force is equal to the gravitational force. It is equal to :

F = \frac{mv^2}{R}

F = \frac{6500  \times (6.7 * 10^3)}{9 * 10^6}

= 32.4  * 10³N

the gravitational force between the satellite and the planet is 32.4  * 10³N

4. What is the acceleration of a car traveling at 65 mph that keeps a constant speed over
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

a.

Explanation:

Remeber speed and velocity are the same concept, it just speed is scalar, meaning it doesn't have a direction nor it negative.

So technically thr car had a constant speed over 75 seconds.

If thr car has a constant speed, the car isn't speeding up or slowing down so it has accleration of 0 so the answer is a.

Argon, atomic number 18, has an atomic weight of 39.9. Potassium, atomic number 19, has an atomic weight of 39.1. Which of these
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer: D

Explanation:

Atomic weight is measured by adding the number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus. Argon's atomic number is 18 while potassium's is 19. This means that Argon will always have 18 protons while potassium will always have 19 protons.

To make the numbers easier to work with, round each atomic weight. We'll say the atomic weight of potassium is 39 and the atomic weight of argon is 40. To see how many neutrons each one has, I can set up a simple equation for each using the following equation:

Atomic weight = protons + neutrons

Potassium:

39 = 19 + N  -->  N = 20

Argon:

40 = 18 + N  -->  N = 22

An atom is defined by the number of protons it has, but the number of neutrons can vary. We call these isotopes, or atoms with the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons. As the math shows, argon typically has more neutrons per atom than potassium does.
