Answer:

Explanation:

The more diverse a species is the less likely they are to be taken out by a single threat to their existence.

Think of the potato famine in Ireland. All of the potatoes had almost the exact same DNA. So when one disease infected one of them it infected them all.

A communications satellite transmits a radio wave at a frequency of 9.4 x 10^9 Hz. What is the signal’s wavelength? Assume the w

sergejj [24]

To calculate this we will use the light equation:
$c=$ λ $*f$

We have Frequency $f=9.4* 10^{9}Hz$ .
We know that speed of light in vacuum is $c =3.8* 10^{8} m/s$ .
Since a unit of speed of light is m/s, we can change the unit of frequency Hz to 1/s, since Hz means cycles per second (f=1/T).

So:
$f=9.4* 10^{9}1/s$
 $c =3.8* 10^{8} m/s$

 $c=$ λ $*f$
⇒ λ $= \frac{c}{f}$
⇒ λ $= \frac{3.8* 10^{8}}{9.4* 10^{9}}$
⇒ λ $=0.04 m$

Which explains the information needed to calculate speed and velocity?

m_a_m_a [10]

Velocity is a vector quantity which means it has both magnitude and direction means in order to calculate it another vector quantity is used which is displacement on the other hand speed is a scalar quantity.
