A wave travels at speed 34 cm/s. its wavelength is 18 cm. what is the period of the wave

Physics

gavmur [86]3 years ago

period = .53 sec because

<em />

(34 cm/s) / 18 cm = 1.89 hz = frequency

convert frequency to period

period = 1 / frequency

.53 = 1 / 1.89

A satellite of mass m circles a planet of mass M and radius R in an orbit at a height 2R above the surface of the planet. What m
Goryan [66]

Answer:

ΔE = GMm/24R

Explanation:

centripetal acceleration a = V^2 / R = 2T/mr

T= kinetic energy

m= mass of satellite, r= radius of earth

= gravitational acceleration = GM / r^2

Now, solving for the kinetic energy:

T = GMm / 2r = -1/2 U,

where U is the potential energy

So the total energy is:

E = T+U = -GMm / 2r

Now we want to find the energy difference as r goes from one orbital radius to another:

ΔE = GMm/2 (1/R_1 - 1/R_2)

So in this case, R_1 is 3R (planet's radius + orbital altitude) and R_2 is 4R

ΔE = GMm/2R (1/3 - 1/4)

ΔE = GMm/24R

Why does the satellite not fall while revolving the earth​
hoa [83]

Answer:

Satellites don't fall from the sky because they are orbiting Earth. Even when satellites are thousands of miles away, Earth's gravity still tugs on them. Gravity--combined with the satellite's momentum from its launch into space--cause the satellite go into orbit above Earth, instead of falling back down to the ground.

i think it would be newton's first law of motion

Newton's First Law states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force.
