Frequency because all the other things may have to do with energy but frequency is the one that has to do with number of wavelength passed by a certain point or a certain time

Answer:

Time period

Explanation:

A disturbance that is created in a medium is called a wave. There are many characteristics of a wave i.e. period of wave, frequency, wavelength of a wave etc.

Time period of a wave is defined as the time required for a passage of one wavelength. It is denoted by T. Its relation with the frequency of wave is given as :

$\nu=\dfrac{1}{T}$

Frequency of a wave is equal to the number of oscillations or vibrations. Hence, the correct option is (a) " time period ".

A NASA satellite has just observed an asteroid that is on a collision course with the Earth. The asteroid has an estimated mass,

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

v = 7934.2 m/s

Explanation:

Here the total energy of the Asteroid and the Earth system will remains conserved

So we will have

$-\frac{GMm}{r} + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 = -\frac{GMm}{R} + \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we know that

$v_0 = 660 m/s$

$M = 5.98 \times 10^{24} kg$

$m = 5 \times 10^9 kg$

$r = 4 \times 10^9 m$

$R = 6.37 \times 10^6 m$

now from above formula

$GMm(\frac{1}{R} - \frac{1}{r}) + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we have

$2GM(\frac{1}{R} - \frac{1}{r}) + v_0^2 = v^2$

now plug in all data

$2(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(5.98 \times 10^{24})(\frac{1}{6.37 \times 10^6} - \frac{1}{4 \times 10^9}) + (660)^2 = v^2$

$v = 7934.2 m/s$

An object is held at rest and allowed to drop How far does the object fall in 3.3 seconds?

IgorC [24]

After x seconds, an object will fall $\frac{1}{2}at^2$ where a is acceleration due to gravity and t is time

so when t=3.3
the distance it will fall is $(\frac{1}{2})(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(3.3m)^2$ =53.361m
it will fal 53.361 meters

Which change occurs when an atom undergoes alpha decay?

oee [108]

In an alpha decay, an atom emits an alpha particle. An alpha particle consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons: this means that during this kind of decay, the original atom loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons from its nucleus.

This also means that the atomic number Z of the element (the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus) decreases by 2 units in the process, while the mass number A (the mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons) decreases by 4 units.

A 22 µF capacitor charged to 0.7 kV and a second 115 µF capacitor charged to 5.5 kV are connected to each other, with the positi

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

0.099C

Explanation:

First, we need to get the common potential voltage using the formula

$V=\frac {C_2V_2-C_1V_1}{C_1+C_2}$

Where V is the common voltage, C and V represent capacitance and charge respectively. Subscripts 1 and 2 to represent the the first and second respectively. Substituting the above with the following given values then

$C_1=22\times 10^{-6} F\\ C_2=115\times 10^{-6} F\\ V_1= 0.7\times 10^{3}\\V_2=5.5\times 10^{3}$

Therefore

$V=\frac {115\times 10^{-6}\times 5.5\times 10^{3}-22\times 10^{6}\times 0.7\times 10^{3}}{22\times 10^{-6}+115\times 10^{-6}}=4504.3795620437$

Charge, Q is given by CV hence for the first capacitor charge will be $Q_1=C_1V$

Here, $Q_1=22\times 10^{-6}\times 4504.3795620437=0.0990963503649C\approx 0.099C$
