Imagine you are sitting on a surfboard in the ocean, waiting to catch a big wave. When the ocean is still, you are sitting at a

point that would be the midpoint (the undisturbed position) of any waves that come your way. You look out to see and see a set of waves coming your way. What you see is actually a pattern of troughs followed be crests of the waves moving toward you and the shore. The distance between the crests is 5 meters. A crest passes you every 20 seconds.
Answer these questions:

a. What is the wavelength?

b. What is the frequency?

c. What is the wave velocity?

A sled sliding on a flat,icy surface with a constant velocity is best described by
AysviL [449]
The first one is actually Newton's First Law of Motion. 

Newton's First Law of Motion is commonly stated as "an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force." This sled is moving across the ice at the same constant speed and velocity meaning it will won't stop unless an outside force acts upon it. An example being someone coming and grabbing the sled or maybe the sled slips off of the ice and finds itself stuck in a pile of snow. Similarly, if the sled was not moving, it would not move unless acted upon again by an outside force. 

You believed it to be Newton's Third Law, but for future reference, his third law is more about every action having an equal opposite reaction. This wouldn't explain what is currently happening with the sled. A helpful tip into figuring out where to start in figuring out the answer I got is in the example you gave it literally states "with a constant velocity" which also ends up being in the description of Newton's First Law. Though, don't rely on that because the answer could have had a made up definition.

Unfortunately, I do not know the answer to your other question. I apologize. Hope this helped.

What happens to the strength of the magnetic field as you come closer to the current carrying wire?
lina2011 [118]
Electric energy is carried by current, which is the flow of electrons, which are the negatively charged sub-particles of atoms. This transfer of electrons from one place to another powers our lights, phones, appliances and many other things we use every day. Another interesting phenomenon of flowing current is that it produces its own magnetic field. Electricity and magnetism are very closely linked in that all closed loop currents create their own magnetic fields, and magnetic fields acting upon closed loop circuits can produce current or even change current diction.
