Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)

Speed of radio in air = approximately 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Cell phone:  Frequency = 1.9 GHz = 1.9 x 10⁹ Hz

Wavelength = (3 x 10⁸ m/s) / (1.9 x 10⁹ /sec) = 15.79 cm (6.2 inches)



WHAM:  Frequency = 1180 KHz = 1.18 x 10⁶ Hz

Wavelength = (3 x 10⁸ m/s) / (1.18 x 10⁶ /sec) = 254.2 meters (0.16 mile)


I KNOW there must be somebody around here from Rochester NY.
My roomie and I used to wake up to WHAM when we were in college there.

12. A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates vertically. It accelerates uniformly until it
vodomira [7]

Answer:

We kindly invite you to read carefully the explanation and check the image attached below.

Explanation:

According to this problem, the rocket is accelerated uniformly due to thrust during 30 seconds and after that is decelerated due to gravity. The velocity as function of initial velocity, acceleration and time is:

v_{f} = v_{o}+a\cdot (t-t_{o}) (1)

Where:

v_{o} - Initial velocity, measured in meters per second.

v_{f} - Final velocity, measured in meters per second.

a - Acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

t_{o} - Initial time, measured in seconds.

t - Final time, measured in seconds.

Now we obtain the kinematic equations for thrust and free fall stages:

Thrust (v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, a = 30\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, t_{o} = 0\,s, 0\,s\le t< 30\,s)

v = 30\cdot t (2)

Free fall (v_{o} = 900\,\frac{m}{s}, a = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s}, t_{o} = 30\,s, 30\,s \le t \le 120\,s)

v = 900-9.81\cdot (t-30) (3)

Now we created the graph speed-time, which can be seen below.

The law of universal gravitation states that a gravitational force exists between all objects in the universe. This force is dir
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

D. It has been demonstrated to be without exception under certain stated conditions.

Explanation:

A principle is simply a proposition based on some results from some experiments. A principle becomes a law when it gains strength. That is when other scientists support and back it.

A scientific law is a statement that describes a natural phenomenon and is not contradicted by repeated experiments over the time.

Sir Isaac Newton's law of gravitation stated "A gravitational force exists between all objects in the universe. This force is directly proportional to the masses of the two objects and inversely proportional to the distance between them."

His law explained that every body in the universe attracts every other body. It explained that it is not just Earth that pulls us towards it. But even sun and moon has their own gravitational pull and so does all other objects. It is just that the Gravitational pull of some objects is negligible.

Newton's law of Gravitation is considered a universal law because it is applicable to almost all the bodies in the universe and is demonstrated to be correct for them under certain conditions.

Displacement vectors of 4 km north, 2km south, 5 km north, and 5km south combine to a total displacement of A 2 km south B 16 km
Phantasy [73]
The north vectors add up as so the south vectors.  Then subtract the two.  For north its 4 + 5 = 9.  South is 2 + 5 = 7.   Then 9-7 = 2km North (D)

How do I calculate speed, velocity, and acceleration? I need the formulas too
vodomira [7]
Speed is the secular unit, which means it only measures "how fast it goes."
speed= \frac{distance}{time}
Velocity is a victory unit, which means it measures "both how fast it goes AND the direction."
velocity= displacement/time
Acceleration is the change of velocity over time. 
acceleration =  \frac{change in velocity}{time}
