The Hubble Space Telescope is a joint ESA/NASA project and was launched in 1990 by the Space Shuttle mission STS-31 into a low-Earth orbit 569 km above the ground. During its lifetime Hubble has become one of the most important science projects ever. Hope this helps! ~ Autumn :)

If the light wave has a wavelength of 10m what would be its velocity
s2008m [1.1K]

If this case could ever happen, the speed would follow from this formula:

v = f \cdot \lambda

with f the frequency and lambda the wavelength. We are give a wavelength of 10m. The frequencies of the visible light can range between 400 to about 790 Terahertz, so let us pick a middle point of 600 THz ("green-ish") as a "representative."

v = 600THz\cdot 10m = 6\cdot 10^{14} \frac{1}{s}\cdot 10 m = 6\cdot10^{15}\frac{m}{s}

The speed of such a wave would have to be 6e+15 m/s (which would be 7 orders of magnitude higher than the universal speed of light constant)

Answer:

Usually, the relationship between mass and weight on Earth is highly proportional; objects that are a hundred times more massive than a one-liter bottle of soda almost always weigh a hundred times more—approximately 1,000 newtons, which is the weight one would expect on Earth from an object with a mass slightly greater ...

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity divided by
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Time elapsed

Explanation:

Acceleration is a vector quantity. It is defined as:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time elapsed

Acceleration is measured in meters per second squared (m/s^2). It must be noticed that acceleration is a vector, so it also has a direction. In particular:

- when acceleration is negative, it means that the object is slowing down, so acceleration is in opposite direction to the velocity

- when acceleration is positive, it means that the object is speeding up, so acceleration is in the same direction as the velocity
