Mashcka [7]4 years ago

Answer:

1. the electromagnetic wave.

Explanation:

Mathematically,

wavelength = velocity ÷ frequency

A mechanical wave is a wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum. Mechanical waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another. A sound wave is an example of a mechanical wave. Sound waves are incapable of traveling through a vacuum.

Electromagnetic waves of different frequency are called by different names since they have different sources and effects on matter, increasing frequency decreases wavelength.

Sound waves (which obviously travel at the speed of sound) are much slower than electromagnetic waves (which travel at the speed of light.)  

Electromagnetic waves are much faster than sound waves and If the Velocity of the wave increases and the frequency is constant, the wavelength also increases.

Determine the acceleration due to gravity for low Earth orbit (LEO) given: MEarth = 6.00 x 1024 kg, rEarth = 6.40 x 106 m, G = 6
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The answer to the question is as follows

The  acceleration due to gravity for low for orbit is  9.231 m/s²

Explanation:

The gravitational force is given as

F_{G}= \frac{Gm_{1} m_{2}}{r^{2} }

Where F_{G} = Gravitational force

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67×10⁻¹¹\frac{Nm^{2} }{kg^{2} }

m₁ = mEarth = mass of Earth = 6×10²⁴ kg

m₂ = The other mass which is acted upon by  F_{G} and = 1 kg

rEarth = The distance between the two masses = 6.40 x 10⁶ m

therefore at a height of 400 km above the erth we have

r = 400 + rEarth = 400 + 6.40 x 10⁶ m = 6.80 x 10⁶ m

and  F_{G} = \frac{6.67*10^{-11} *6.40*10^{24} *1}{(6.8*10^{6})^{2} } = 9.231 N

Therefore the acceleration due to gravity =  F_{G} /mass  

9.231/1 or 9.231 m/s²

Therefore the acceleration due to gravity at 400 kn above the Earth's surface is  9.231 m/s²

If you are given the mass of an object in pounds, the time in seconds, and the distance in feet, what must you do before you can
Alexandra [31]

Answer: First you must convert pound in kilogram, and feet in meter

Explanation:

To calculate momentum we use .

p=m*V

mass-m

speed-V

distance and time are used to calculate velocity(speed)

You are given :

 mass- in pounds

for distance - in feet

before you do any calculation first you have to convert pounds in kilograms

and feet in meters.

1) A train accelerates from 36 km/hr to 54 km/hr in 10<br> s. Find acceleration?
Crank

Answer: Given:

Initial velocity= 36km/h=36x5/18=10m/s

Final velocity =54km/h=54x5/18=15m/s

Time =10sec

Acceleration = v-u/ t

=15-10/10=5/10=1/2=0.5 m/s2

Distance =s=?

From second equation of motion:

S=ut +1/2 at^2

=10*10+1/2*0.5*10*10

=100+25

=125m

So distance travelled 125m

Hope it helps you
