Answer: The wavelength is 3.33 km, the unit is km.

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) λ = ?
b) v = 10 km/s
c) f = 3 Hz = 3 s⁻¹

2) Formula:

wave equation: v = f × λ

3)  Solution:

a) Solve for λ

λ = v / f

λ = (10 km/s ) / 3 s⁻¹

λ = 3.33 km

The wavelength is 3.33 km, the unit is km.

Using what you know about air pressure and the water cycle, explain how hurricanes form. Why are there certain places on Earth m
Yuki888 [10]
Hurricanes form when hot air and cold air start colliding above water and they start to form a tornado but there is water in the tornado. Certain places on earth are more susceptible to hurricanes because they are closer to the coastlines. For example, in Iowa, and Illinois, they have a lower chance of a hurricane, while Florida, and Washington have a higher rate because they are along the ocean. Hope this helps.

weegy a 7.5kg block is placed on a table. if its bottom surface area is 0.6m2 , how much pressure does the block exert on the ta
Lesechka [4]

The pressure exerted by the block on the table is given by:

p=\frac{W}{A}

where W is the weight of the box, and A is the bottom surface area of the box.

The weight of the box is: W=mg=(7.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=73.6 N

Substituting into the first equation, we find the pressure:

p=\frac{W}{A}=\frac{73.6 N}{0.6 m^2}=122.7 Pa

Does water expand more as the temperature drops even more below 0 deg? I am worried about the coolant in my rad. as the temp.is
alex41 [277]
Water is, indeed, an exception. Normally when temperature drops, material shrinks. Water doesn't, water expands instead.
