Answer:

Velocity = frequency * wave length

Explanation:

Wave velocity is  the measure of how fast the wave is being transmitted to a particular direction.

velocity implies both speed and direction as we know.

The velocity of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency

where

  • frequency  - number of oscillations per unit time (measured in Hz)
  • wave length - distance between corresponding points of two consecutive waves  (measured in meters)

What happens when an object experiences friction?
kaheart [24]

Answer:Whenever a moving object experiences friction, some of its kinetic energy is transformed into thermal energy. Mechanical energy is always transformed into thermal energy due to friction. Mechanical energy is always transformed into thermal energy due to friction.

A ball is dropped from rest from a height h above the ground. another ball is thrown vertically upwards from the ground at the i
Darya [45]

The position of the first ball is

y_1=h-\dfrac g2t^2

while the position of the second ball, thrown with initial velocity v, is

y_2=vt-\dfrac g2t^2

The time it takes for the first ball to reach the halfway point satisfies

\dfrac h2=h-\dfrac g2t^2

\implies\dfrac h2=\dfrac g2t^2

\implies t=\sqrt{\dfrac hg}

We want the second ball to reach the same height at the same time, so that

\dfrac h2=v\sqrt{\dfrac hg}-\dfrac g2\left(\sqrt{\dfrac hg}\right)^2

\implies h=2v\sqrt{\dfrac hg}-g\left(\dfrac hg\right)

\implies h=v\sqrt{\dfrac hg}

\implies v=\sqrt{hg}

Two forces are acting on a wheelbarrow. One force is pushing to the right and an equal force is pushing to the left. What can yo
andreev551 [17]

-- As far as we know, the forces on the wheelbarrow are balanced.

-- That tells us that the net force on the wheelbarrow is zero, just
as if there were no forces acting on it at all.

-- That tells us that the wheelbarrow's acceleration is zero ... its
speed and direction of motion are not changing.

-- That tells us that the wheelbarrow is moving in a straight line
at a constant speed.  It's very possible that relative to us, the speed
may be zero, but we can't tell that from the given information.

A man-made satellite orbits the earth in a circular orbit that has a radius of 32000 km. The mass of the Earth is 5.97e 24 kg. W
Gwar [14]

Answer:

= 3521m/s

The tangential speed is approximately 3500 m/s.

Explanation:

F = m * v² ÷ r

Fg = (G * M * m) ÷ r²

(m v²) / r = (G * M * m) / r²

v² = (G * M) / r

v = √( G * M ÷ r)

G * M = 6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ * 5.97 * 10²⁴ = 3.98199 * 10¹⁴

r = 32000km = 32 * 10⁶ meters  

G * M / r = 3.98199 * 10¹⁴ ÷ 32 * 10⁶

v = √1.24 * 10⁷  

v = 3521.36m/s

The tangential speed is approximately 3500 m/s.
