Answer:

1.5m

Explanation:

Speed of waves is given as the product of the wavelength and frequency. Sometimes when frequency is not given but the period is given, we get the frequency as the reciprocal of the period. The speed of waves is given in m/s, wavelength in m while frequency in Hz.

Speed, s= fw and making w the subject of formula,

$w=\frac {s}{f}$

Substituting 300, 000, 000 m/s for s and 200, 000, 000 for f then we obtain that

$w=\frac {300000000}{200000000}=1.5 m$

Answer:

C) rift valley

Explanation:

A rift valley is a lowland region formed by the interaction of Earth's tectonic plates. This small rift valley has a typical formation—long, narrow, and deep. It was formed by the Thingvellir rift, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates are tearing, or rifting, apart over a hotspot on the island of Iceland.

A 100-N force causes an object to<br> accelerate at 2 m/s/s. What is the<br> mass of the object?

Kitty [74]

Answer:

$50\; \rm kg$ .

Explanation:

By Newton's Second Law, the acceleration $a$ of an object is proportional to the net force $\sum F$ on it. In particular, if the mass of the object is $m$ , then

$\sum F = m \cdot a$ .

Rewrite this equation to obtain:

$\displaystyle m = \frac{\sum F}{a}$ .

In this case, the assumption is that the $100\; \rm N$ force is the only force that is acting on the object. Hence, the net force $\sum F$ on the object would also be

Make sure that all values are in their standard units. Forces should be in Newtons (same as $\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-2}$ , and the acceleration of the object should be in meters-per-second-squared ( $\rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ ). Apply the equation $\displaystyle m = \frac{\sum F}{a}$ to find the mass of the object.

$\displaystyle m = \frac{100\; \rm N}{2\; \rm m \cdot s^{-2}} = 50\; \rm kg$ .

A satellite completes one revolution of a planet in almost exactly one hour. At the end of one hour, the satellite has traveled

ad-work [718]

Answer:

shown below

Explanation:

2 x 10⁷ as a number is 20,000,000

20,000,000 - 10 = 19,999,990

It went 19,999,990 m/h

in km/h:

19,999,990 / 1000 = 19,999.99 km/h

in km/s

19,999,990 / 3,600,000 = ~5.56 km/s

in m/s

19,999,990 / 3600 = ~5555.56 m/s
