A water wave has a speed of 23.0 meters/second. If the wave’s frequency is 0.0680 hertz, what is the wavelength?

Wavelength = $\frac{speed of wave}{frequency of the wave} = \frac{23}{0.068} = 338.235 meters.$ Hope this helps you!

Answer:

λ = 338m

Explanation:

We can use the equation that describe the wavelength in function of the velocity and the frequency of the wave

λ = $\frac{v}{f}$

where v, is the velocity of the wave and f is the frequency of the wave

The problem gives you that $v=23.0\frac{m}{s}$ and $f=0.0680Hz$ , so you should replace this values in the equation for the wavelengt:

λ = $\frac{23.0\frac{m}{s}}{0.0680Hz}$

λ = 338m

Explain how a parachute works

Shtirlitz [24]

A parachute increases air friction, thus reducing falling speed.

Indeed, the air friction is roughly proportional to the surface of the object falling down; the parachute tremendously increases that surface.

How does the mass of an object affect the outcome when an unbalanced force acts on it?

Verdich [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of acceleration is reduced.

Explanation:

Force is defined as push or pull

The force is said to be balance force if the force are equal in size but opposite in direction. ie the object does not move or move with constant speed.

The force are to be unbalanced force if the force cause change in motion. ie the object has force greater than zero and has acceleration.

According to Newton second law of motion , acceleration depends on force acting on the object and mass of object.

F=ma

a= $\frac{F}{m}$

When unbalanced force act on the mass of object it reduces magnitude of acceleration without changing the direction.

Why is a warm, tropical cumulus cloud more likely to produce precipitation than a cold, stratus cloud?

Lelu [443]

Explanation:

Warm,tropical cumulus cloud more likely to produce precipitation because they have high liquid content, strong and consistent updraft, these clouds are very thick. Moreover, they have large range of cloud droplet sizes. Whereas, stratus cloud have somewhat opposite characteristics, hence tropical cumulus clouds produce more precipitate.

____, one of Saturn's icy moons, is unusual in the solar system in that it has volcanic activity that ejects plumes of icy parti

blondinia [14]

Answer: Enceladus

Explanation:

Enceladus is a small, icy body with an undergound ocean beneath its crust. Cassini discovered that geyser-like jets spew water vapor and ice particles. It is also the sixth largest moon in Saturn and just about a tenth of the largest moon in Saturn; Titan. It is often regarded as one of the most reflective body in the solar system as a result of its icy surface.
