Answer: Frequency = 15Hz

Explanation:

Given that

Wavelength (λ) = 3 m

Wave speed V = 45 m/s

Wave speed is the product of frequency and wavelength. That is

V = f(λ)

Substitute wavelength and wave speed into the formula

45 = f × 3

Make f the subject of the formula

f = 45/3

f = 15 Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the ocean wave is 15 Hz

Why is the law of gravity an example of a universal law?
Greeley [361]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The most important part about this is not only that objects pull on each other, but that two objects attract each other with a force that is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This is known as Newton's law of universal gravitation.

Describe all the ways that newtons laws can apply in a car crash
Harman [31]
Newtons first law - Objects in the car at rest (The human) will remain at rest unless affected by an unbalanced force. Well the unbalanced force would be the crash and this would set the human in motion and they would ether fly out the car if not wearing a seat belt or if wearing one they would get bad whip lash

Newtons second law - With more mass requires more force, so since the human is pretty light or even if heavy in a big crash there will be so much more from it that this will send the human flying.

Newtons 3rd law - Objects A puts force onto objects b and object b excretes the same amount of force back onto object a, so in a crash the human would hit the car hard and the car would excrete the same amount of force back on the human which would really damage him/her

In the visible spectra of stars, absorption lines of hydrogen are produced when atoms are excited from n = 2 to higher levels (t
grigory [225]

Answer:

3. relatively high temperature, about 10,000 K, so that significant numbers of electrons are excited from the ground state, n = 1, to the first excited state, n = 2, but not too many of them have been ejected completely from the atoms

Explanation:

If hydrogen absorption lines are very strong in the visible spectrum of a particular star that means the population of electron in n = 2 is very high so on being exited they absorb radiation in Balmer series and give rise to absorption spectrum. The average temperature required to excite electron in hydrogen atom from n=1 to n = 2   is 10000K .

Calculate the height from which a body is released from rest if its velocity just before hitting the ground is 30ms
nexus9112 [7]
S= ?
U= 0 ms^{-1}
V= 30 ms^{-1}
A= 9.8 ms^{-2}
T= 

V^2 = U^2 + 2AS
900 = 19.6S
\frac{900}{19.6} = S
S = 45.92 m

Eating an orange enables a person to perform about 3.5x10^4 J of work. To what height does eating and orange enable a 55kg woman
crimeas [40]
Joules is a unit for work which may decomposed into N.m. Work is a quantity which is a product of force (in this case, the woman's weight) and the distance she has traveled. 
 
                                    W = F x d      ;    d = W / F

Substituting the given, 
  
                             d = (3.5 x 10^4 J) / (55 kg x 9.8 m/s²) = 64.94 m

Thus, the woman can climb up to 64.94 meters.
