Answer:

176ft/s

Explanation:

Speed of a wave is a function of the frequency and wavelength of the wave. It is expressed mathematically as:

V = fλ where:

V is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency

λ is the wavelength

Given f = 16Hz, λ = 11ft

V = 16×11

V = 176ft/s

How much force is needed to stop a 50 kg gymnast if he decelerates at 25 m/s^2
vlada-n [284]
The force can be calculated by multiplying the mass of the gymnast with her acceleration.

Force = 50 kg × 25 m/s2
Force = 1250 N

A force of at least 1250 N can stop the 50-kg gymnast.
