To solve this problem we will use the three requested concepts: Wavelength, frequency and period.

The wavelength is the distance between each crest, therefore it is already given and is 0.8m

<em>The correct answer is C.</em>

The frequency can be described as a relationship between wave speed and wavelength therefore

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

f = \frac{2.2}{0.8}

f = 2.75Hz \approx 2.8Hz

<em>The correct answer is B.</em>

The period is the inverse of the frequency therefore

T = \frac{1}{f}

T = \frac{1}{2.8}

T = 0.35s

<em>The correct answer is B.</em>

labwork [276]

Weak nuclear force is weaker than the strong nuclear force with a smaller range than the electromagnetic force.

It acts between fermions with spin 1/2 basically quarks and leptons. It has a range of 10⁻¹⁸ meters.

Option 1 is incorrect. It is stronger than the gravitational force.

Option 2 is incorrect. It is weaker than the electromagnetic force.

Option 3 is incorrect. It has a smaller range than the strong nuclear force.

En una práctica un beisbolista lanza verticalmente la bola con una velocidad de 12m/s en dirección ascendente. ¿Cuál será la alt
fgiga [73]

Answer:

Thus, the maximum height is 7.35 m.

Explanation:

initial velocity, u = 12 m/s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Velocity at maximum height, v = 0 m/s

Let the maximum height is h.

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}-2 g h\\0 = 12\times 12 - 2 \times 9.8\times h\\h =7.35  m

What make molecules​
UNO [17]

Answer:

Molecules are made up of atoms that are held together by chemical bonds. These bonds form as a result of the sharing or exchange of electrons among atoms. The atoms of certain elements readily bond with other atoms to form molecules. ... The element helium is a one-atom molecule. I hope this helps :)
