Answer:

The wavelength of these signals is as follow:

  • Wavelength of 550 kHz is 545.45 m
  • Wavelength of 1600 kHz is 187.5 m

Explanation:

Given that:

Frequency = 550 kHz & 1600 kHz

Velocity = 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s

As we know that frequency is expressed by the following equation:

  • Frequency = Velocity / Wavelength ---- (1)

For 550 kHz:

The equation can be rearranged as

Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency

Wavelength = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (550 x 1000 Hz)

Wavelength = 545.45 m

For 1600 kHz:

Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency

Wavelength = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (1600 x 1000 Hz)

Wavelength = 187.5 m

Increasing which two things would increase gravitational potential energy?
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Mass and height

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. The most common use of gravitational potential energy is for an object near the surface of the Earth where the gravitational acceleration can be assumed to be constant at about 9.8 m/s2.

Which is represented as;

PE_g=mgh

PE_g stands for gravitational potantial energy,

m stands for mass of object,

g is the gravitational constant and

h is the height.

Here we see that mass of object and height is directly proportional to the gravitational potential energy.

That means increasing in mass and height will result in increasing gravitational potential energy.

A bicycle rider traveling east at 10 km/hr sees a blue car pass her appearing to travel west at 50 km/hr. What is the blue car's
BigorU [14]

Answer:

v_{bR} = 25 km/h towards west

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of the blue car as appear to the bicycle rider is given as

v_{bc} = 50 km/h towards west

also it is given that bicycle is moving at speed of 10 km/h towards East

so here we have

v_{bc} = v_b - v_c

so we have

v_b = v_{bc} + v_c

v_b = -50 + 10 = 40 km/h towards west

now speed of the red car is given as 15 km/h towards west

so here the relative speed of blue car with respect to red car is given as

v_{bR} = v_b - v_R

v_{bR} = 40 - 15 = 25 km/h towards west
