Wave speed = (frequency) x (wavelength)

If the frequency is kept constant, then the wavelength
is directly proportional to the wave speed.

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Velocity and wavelength are directly proportional when frequency is kept constant.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Frequency of a wave is the number of complete oscillations made by a given wave in one second. </u></em>
  • <em><u>Wavelength on the other hand, is the distance between two successful crests or troughs in a transverse wave or two successful rarefactions or compressions in a longitudinal waves.</u></em>
  • <em><u>The speed of a wave is given by the product of the frequency of a wave and the wavelength.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Speed = Frequency × wavelength, </u></em>
  • <em><u>Therefore, if frequency is kept constant, then the speed of a wave is directly proportional to the wavelength, such that an increase in wavelength increases the speed of the wave and vice versa.</u></em>

A ski jumper has a mass of 59.6 kg. She is moving with a speed of 23.4 m/s at a height of 44.6 meters above the ground. Determin
Daniel [21]

Hello!

Use the formula:

M = k * p

Data:

M = Mechanic energy

k = Kinetic energy

p = Potencial energy

Descomposing:

M = (0,5*mv²) + (mgh)

Replacing:

M = (0,5 * 59,6 kg * (23,4 m/s)²) + (59,6 kg * 9,81 m/s² * 44,6 m)

M = 16317,28 J + 26076,54 J

M = 42393,82 J

The mechanic energy is <u>42393,82 Joules.</u>

An object is placed at zero zero on a Number line. It moves three units to the right, then four units to the left, and then 60 u
STatiana [176]

Answer:

the displacement of the object is 5 units

Explanation:

The computation of the displacement of the object is shown below:

= Move to the right + move to the right - move to the left

= 6 units + 3 units - 4 units

= 9 units - 4 units

= 5 units

Hence, the displacement of the object is 5 units

When the distance between two interacting objects doubles, the gravitational force is
Umnica [9.8K]

The gravitational force will be one quarter.

The gravitational force between two objects is given by the formula

F=GMm/r^2

here, r is the distance between the objects.

Thus the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects, Therefore if the distance between two objects is doubled the force will be one quarter.

The energy required to ionize magnesium is 738 kj/mol. What minimum frequency of light is required to ionize magnesium
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The minimum frequency required to ionize the photon is 111.31 × 10^{37} Hertz

Given:

Energy = 378 \frac{kJ}{mol}

To find:

Minimum frequency of light required to ionize magnesium = ?

Formula used:

The energy of photon of light is given by,

E = h v

Where E = Energy of magnesium

h = planks constant

v = minimum frequency of photon

Solution:

The energy of photon of light is given by,

E = h v

Where E = Energy of magnesium

h = planks constant

v = minimum frequency of photon

738 × 10^{3} = 6.63 × 10^{-34} × v

v = 111.31 × 10^{37} Hertz

The minimum frequency required to ionize the photon is 111.31 × 10^{37} Hertz
