Distance from any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave?

1 answer:

6 0

It's called the "Wavelength". It corresponds to <span>the distance from any point on a wave to an identical point on the next wave and could also be from crest to crest or trough to trough.

Hope this helps !

A NASA satellite has just observed an asteroid that is on a collision course with the Earth. The asteroid has an estimated mass,

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

v = 7934.2 m/s

Explanation:

Here the total energy of the Asteroid and the Earth system will remains conserved

So we will have

$-\frac{GMm}{r} + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 = -\frac{GMm}{R} + \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we know that

$v_0 = 660 m/s$

$M = 5.98 \times 10^{24} kg$

$m = 5 \times 10^9 kg$

$r = 4 \times 10^9 m$

$R = 6.37 \times 10^6 m$

now from above formula

$GMm(\frac{1}{R} - \frac{1}{r}) + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we have

$2GM(\frac{1}{R} - \frac{1}{r}) + v_0^2 = v^2$

now plug in all data

$2(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(5.98 \times 10^{24})(\frac{1}{6.37 \times 10^6} - \frac{1}{4 \times 10^9}) + (660)^2 = v^2$

$v = 7934.2 m/s$

What is an elastic collision?

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

A collision in which both total momentum and total kinetic energy are conserved

Explanation:

In classical physics, we have two types of collisions:

- Elastic collision: elastic collision is a collision in which both the total momentum of the objects involved and the total kinetic energy of the objects involved are conserved

- Inelastic collision: in an inelastic collision, the total momentum of the objects involved is conserved, while the total kinetic energy is not. In this type of collisions, part of the total kinetic energy is converted into heat or other forms of energy due to the presence of frictional forces. When the objects stick together after the collision, the collisions is called 'perfectly inelastic collision'

The distance between two stations is 180 km. A train takes 2 hours to cover this distance. The speed of the train in m/sec is...

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Av = 25 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the definition of speed, which is defined as the relationship between distance over time. for this case we have.

$Av=\frac{distance}{time}$

where:

Av = speed [km/h] or [m/s]

distance = 180 [km]

time = 2 [hr]

Therefore the speed is equal to:

$Av = \frac{180}{2} \\Av = 90 [km/h]$

Now we must convert from kilometers per hour to meters per second

$90[\frac{km}{h}]*1000[\frac{m}{1km}]*1[\frac{h}{3600s} ]= 25 [m/s]$

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

1.6 J

Explanation:

Work = change in energy

W = ΔKE

Fd = KE
