I'll be happy to solve the problem using the information that
you gave in the question, but I have to tell you that this wave
is not infrared light.
If it was a wave of infrared, then its speed would be close
to 300,000,000 m/s, not 6 m/s, and its wavelength would be
less than 0.001 meter, not 12 meters.
For the wave you described . . .
Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)
= (6 m/s) / (12 m)
= 0.5 / sec
= 0.5 Hz .
(If it were an infrared wave, then its frequency would be
greater than 300,000,000,000 Hz.)
Answer:
114.86%
Explanation:
In both cases, there is a vertical force equal to the sprinter's weight:
Fy = mg
When running in a circle, there is an additional centripetal force:
Fx = mv²/r
The net force is found with Pythagorean theorem:
F² = Fx² + Fy²
F² = (mv²/r)² + (mg)²
F² = m² ((v²/r)² + g²)
F = m √((v²/r)² + g²)
Compared to just the vertical force:
F / Fy
m √((v²/r)² + g²) / mg
√((v²/r)² + g²) / g
Given v = 12 m/s, r = 26 m, and g = 9.8 m/s²:
√((12²/26)² + 9.8²) / 9.8
1.1486
The force is about 114.86% greater (round as needed).
Top of the U ramp: potential energy is the highest, while kinetic energy is the lowest
Bottom of the U ramp(aka the curve part): potential energy is the lowest and the kinetic energy is the highest
THEREFORE, PE and KE have an INVERSE RELATIONSHIP.
Floating. When you have no gravity you have nothing to be pushing you down to the floor so that would be an example of no gravity pushing on you.
