A wave with a frequency of 500 Hz is traveling at a speed of 200 m/s. What is the wavelength ?

The wavelength of the wave is 0.40 m.

Frequency  <em>f </em>of a wave is defined as the number of waves traveling through a point in one second. Wavelength λ is the distance traveled by the wave in one complete time period. The speed of the wave <em>v</em> is related to frequency and wavelength by the expression,

v=f \lambda

Therefore,

\lambda =\frac{v}{f}

Substitute 200 m/s for <em>v</em> and 500 Hz for <em>f</em>.

\lambda =\frac{v}{f}\\ =\frac{200 m/s}{500 Hz} \\ =0.40m

Thus, the wavelength of the wave is 0.40 m

fgiga [73]

Answer:

Explanation:

Change in length of spring = 2.13 m

Component of weight acting on spring = mg sinθ

so

mg sinθ = k x where k is spring constant and x is total stretch due to force on the spring.

Here x = 2.13

mg sin17 = k x 2.13

31 x 9.8 sin17 = k x 2.13

k = 41.7 N/m

b ) In case surface had friction , spring would have stretched by less distance .

It is so because , the work done by gravity in stretching down is stored as potential energy in  spring . In case of dissipative force like friction , it also takes up some energy in the form of heat etc  so spring stretches less.

Sauron [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Scientific evidence takes note of the pattern of evolution. The evidence exists in a variety of categories, including direct observation of evolutionary change, the fossil record, homology, and biogeography.

Examples of the categories with their respective examples are:

Direct observation of evolutionary change: Development of drug resistant bacteria

Fossil record: Discovery of transitional forms of horses, Discovery of shells of extinct species

Homology: Similarities in mammalian forelimbs, Same genetic code in fireflies and tobacco plants, Vestigial pelvis in right whales

Biogeography: Similarity of endemic island species to nearby mainland species, The high concentration of marsupial species in Australia

Ratling [72]

It all comes to the doppler effect, the red shift means that the galaxy is moving away from us. The redshift is a result from the doppler effect, so as the galaxy moves away the wavelength expands, increasing the wavelength which responds to the red light.
