Most responsible? I'm pretty sure it's the moon's gravity but I maybe wrong....I hoped I *sorta* helped

The Cartesian coordinate of a point in the xy plane are (x,y)=(-3.50,-2.50)m. Find the poler coordinate of this point

Masja [62]

Answer:

The polar coordinate of $P(x,y) = (-3.50\,m,-2.50\,m)$ is $P (r,\theta) = (4.301\,m, 215.538^{\circ})$ .

Explanation:

Given a point in rectangular form, that is $P(x,y) = (x,y)$ , its polar form is defined by:

$P(x,y) = (r,\theta)$ (1)

Where:

$r$ - Norm, measured in meters.

$\theta$ - Direction, measured in sexagesimal degrees.

The norm of the point is determined by Pythagorean Theorem:

$r = \sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}$ (2)

And direction is calculated by following trigonometric relation:

$\theta = \tan^{-1} \frac{y}{x}$ (3)

If we know that $x = -3.50\,m$ and $y = -2.50\,m$ , then the components of coordinates in polar form is:

$r = \sqrt{(-3.50\,m)^{2}+(-2.50\,m)^{2}}$

$r \approx 4.301\,m$

Since $x < 0\,m$ and $y < 0\,m$ , direction is located at 3rd Quadrant. Given that tangent function has a period of 180º, we find direction by using this formula:

$\theta = 180^{\circ}+\tan^{-1} \left(\frac{-2.50\,m}{-3.50\,m} \right)$

$\theta \approx 215.538^{\circ}$

The polar coordinate of $P(x,y) = (-3.50\,m,-2.50\,m)$ is $P (r,\theta) = (4.301\,m, 215.538^{\circ})$ .

What often happens to light when it travels from one medium to another

quester [9]

Answer:

Although the speed changes and wavelength changes, the frequency of the light will be constant. The frequency, wavelength, and speed are related by: The change in speed that occurs when light passes from one medium to another is responsible for the bending of light, or refraction, that takes place at an interface.
