Find the frequency of a wave of wavelength 2.5m and speed 400 m/s

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

The frequency of wave is 160Hz.

Explanation:

Given that the formula of speed is V = f×λ where V represents speed, f is frequency and λ is wavelength.

So first thing, you have to make frequency the subject by dividing wavelength on both sides :

$v = f \times λ \:$

$v \div λ = f \times λ \div λ$

$f = \frac{v}{λ}$

Next you have to substitute the value of v and f into the formula :

Let λ = 2.5m,

Let v = 400m/s,

$f = \frac{400}{2.5}$

$f = 160Hz$

Why do some athletes engage in cross training

tigry1 [53]

Answer; Cross training enables your body to recuperate faster from injuries, in some cases because other exercises can directly improve the condition caused by your regular activity. For example, Achilles tendonitis, caused by overuse, can be improved by eccentric strengthening of the calf muscles.Explanation:

Two identical asteroids travel side by side while touching one another. If the asteroids are composed of homogeneous pure iron a

victus00 [196]

Answer:

diameter = 21.81 ft

Explanation:

The gravitational force equation is:

$F=\frac{GMm}{R^{2} }$

Where:

F => Gravitational force or force of attraction between two masses
M => Mass of asteroid 1
m => Mass of asteroid 2
R => Distance between asteroids 1 and 2 (from center of gravity)

We also know that the asteroids are identical so their masses are identical:

Since R is the distance between centers of the two asteroids and their diameters are identical (see attachment), we can conclude that:

R=d=2r

We don´t know the mass of the asteroids but we know they are composed of pure iron, so we can relate their masses to their density:

m=ρV

This is going to be helpful because the volume of a sphere is:

$\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$

And know we can write our original force of gravity equation in terms of the radius of the asteroids:

$F=\frac{GMm}{R^{2} } =\frac{Gmm}{(2r)^{2} } =\frac{Gm^{2} }{4r^{2} }$
$F=\frac{G ( \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}ρ)^{2} }{4r^{2} }$
$F= \frac{G(16)\pi ^{2} r^{6} ρ^{2}}{(9)(4)r^{2} } =\frac{G(16)\pi ^{2} r^{4}ρ^{2} }{36}$
