See the diagram above. Which of the following is the best prediction of what would happen if you increased the distance in secti
Inessa [10]

By the definition of wavelength, the answer is the letter D, the wavelength would decrease.

We can see in the diagram a wave motion.

A wave has some characteristics:

  • Has an amplitude, the distance from 0 to the crest (highest point in the y-direction, point (3) in the figure) it would see in the figure as (2)
  • Has wavelength, the distance between the crests.
  • Has a trough, the lowest point in the y-direction.

Now, if we increase the distance of the crests, by the definition shown above, we will increase the wavelength.

Therefore, the answer is letter D, the wavelength would increase.

Which of the following statements correctly describes the models put forth by Ptolemy and Copernicus to explain the universe? A.
FrozenT [24]
The correct option is D. 
The model developed by Ptolemy has a lot of inconsistency and during the middle age additional explanation was offered for the claims made by the model. The model was very complicated because it was based on erroneous assumptions.
Copernicus model was simpler and some of his claims were correct.<span />

If the value of static friction for a couch is 400N, what could be a possible value of its kinetic friction? *
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

kinetic friction may be greater than 400 N or smaller than 400 N

Explanation:

As we know that maximum value of static friction on the rough surface is known as limiting friction and the formula of this limiting friction is known as

F_s = \mu_s N

now when object is sliding on the rough surface then the friction force on that surface is known as kinetic friction and the formula of kinetic friction is known as

F_k = \mu_k N

now we know that

\mu_k < \mu_s

so here value of limiting static friction force is always more than kinetic friction

also we know that

initially when body is at rest then static friction value will lie from 0 N to maximum limiting friction

and hence kinetic friction may be greater than static friction or if the static friction is maximum limiting friction then kinetic friction is smaller than static friction

so kinetic friction may be greater than 400 N or smaller than 400 N
