Answer: D. A wave with a shorter wavelength is always faster than one with a longer wavelength
Explanation: "Imagine two sets of waves that have the same speed. <u><em>If one set has a longer wavelength, it will have a lower frequency (more time between waves). If the other set has a shorter wavelength, it will have a higher frequency</em></u> (less time between waves). Light moves even faster AND has shorter wavelengths."
Why it's not C: "The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency (f). <em><u>As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease</u></em>. From these equations you may realize that as the frequency increases, the wavelength gets shorter. As the frequency decreases, the wavelength gets longer."
Why it's not B: "The frequency does not change as the sound wave moves from one medium to another. Since the speed changes and the frequency does not, the wavelength must change."
Why it's not A: "Do loud sounds travel faster than soft sounds? No. Both travel at the same speed The speed depends on the medium it passes through. Louder sounds are simply sound waves with higher amplitude traveling at the same speed."
Explanation:
At the top of the tree, the velocity of the pebble is purely horizontal so we can calculate it as
Answer:
c. initial (x and y)
Explanation:
When a projectile is launched at a velocity with a launch angle, to solve it, we must first resolve the initial velocity into the x and y components. To do this will mean we have to treat it like a triangle due to the launch angle and the direction of the projectile.
Therefore, we will have to make use of trigonometric ratios which is also known by the mnemonic "SOH CAH TOA"
Thus, this method resolves the initial x and y velocities.
