Law Incorporation [45]
It doesn't on account of radio waves are longer than optical waves. Radio waves are a sort of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths in the electromagnetic range longer than infrared light. These long waves are in the radio locale of the electromagnetic range.

Two or more velocities add by ____?<br><br> Plz help
VladimirAG [237]
By vector addition.
In fact, velocity is a vector, with a magnitude intensity, a direction and a verse, so we can't simply do an algebraic sum of the two (or more velocities). 
First we need to decompose each velocity on both x- and y-axis (if we are on a 2D-plane), then we should do the algebraic sum of all the components on the x- axis and of all the components on the y-axis, to find the resultants on x- and y-axis. And finally, the magnitude of the resultant will be given by
R= \sqrt{(R_x)^2+(R_y)^2}
where Rx and Rx are the resultants on x- and y-axis. The direction of the resultant will be given by
\tan \alpha =  \frac{R_y}{R_x}
where \alpha is its direction with respect to the x-axis.

An 89 kg man drops from rest on a diving board −3.1 m above the surface of the water and comes to rest 0.5 s after reaching the
OLga [1]

To solve this problem we will use the linear motion kinematic equations, for which the change of speed squared with the acceleration and the change of position. The acceleration in this case will be the same given by gravity, so our values would be given as,

m= 89 kg\\x = 3.1 m\\t = 0.5s\\a = g = 9.8m/s^2

Through the aforementioned formula we will have to

v_f^2-v_i^2 = 2ax

The particulate part of the rest, so the final speed would be

v_f^2 = 2gx

v_f=\sqrt{2(9.8)(3.1)}

v_f = 7.79m/s

Now from Newton's second law we know that

F = ma

Here,

m = mass

a = acceleration, which can also be written as a function of velocity and time, then

F = m\frac{dv}{dt}

Replacing we have that,

F = (89)\frac{7.79}{0.5}

F = 1386.62N

Therefore the force that the water exert on the man is 1386.62

an astronaut drops a hammer and an egg while standing on the surface of the moon. which one will the surface first?
elena-s [515]
The two will fall at the same speed and reach the surface at the same time. This is because the two will experience the same gravitational acceleration on the moon. However, on the earth surface the two will land on the surface of the earth at the same time due to air resistance such that the egg will experience a higher air resistance than the hammer. On, the moon, where there is no noticeable atmosphere there is no air resistance on either object and both fall at the same speed. It is also important to note that their mass doesn't affect their speed.
