yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Wavelength

Explanation:

Wavelength is the distance between two corresponding consecutive phases of a waveform. It is usually represented by λ in the mathematical expressions.

A continuous propagating wave repeats its wavelength over the distance.

A wave has crest and trough with respect to time and space.

Wave is defined as a disturbance of any parameter repeated in a cyclic manner over the given time.

The heating system in Jeff and Tony's new home takes cool air and passes it through the heat source using a fan or blower. What
-BARSIC- [3]

If it takes cool air and passes it through the heat source using a fan or blower, the type of heat transfer is convection heat transfer.

<h3>What is heat transfer by convection?</h3>

Convection is the transfer of heat from one place to another due to the movement of fluid.

During heat transfer by convection, cold air replaces hot risen air.

Thus, if it takes cool air and passes it through the heat source using a fan or blower, the type of heat transfer is convection heat transfer.

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

They will not meet

h-hX=1.2*g*t²

hX=v0*t-(1/2*g*t²)

Explanation:

fall h=1/2*g*t²

elevation time if v0=20 m/s  te=v0/g=20 m/s /9.81 m/s²=2.0387s

hmax=v0²/(2*g)=(400 m²/s²)/19.62 m/s²2=20.387 m

free fall

t=2.0387s yields hX=1/2*g*t²=20.387 m

h-hX=200m - 20.387 m=179,613 m.

so, the second body has not enough initianoal speed to reach a meeting point
