Answer:

Frequency = 3 Hz

Explanation:

Frequency is a measure of Hertz. Recall that Hertz is the unit expressing cycles/second, where one second is the denominator of the fraction for simplicity. If there are 12 waves every four seconds, and one wave represents one cycle, dividing 12 waves by 4 seconds will give the answer of 3 waves (or cycles) per one second.

Two astronauts, each having a mass of 74.3 kg are connected by a 13.1 m rope of negligible mass. They are isolated in space, orb

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

L = 5076.5 kg m² / s

Explanation:

The angular momentum of a particle is given by

L = r xp

L = r m v sin θ

the bold are vectors, where the angle is between the position vector and the velocity, in this case it is 90º therefore the sine is 1

as we have two bodies

L = 2 r m v

let's find the distance from the center of mass, let's place a reference frame on one of the masses

$x_{cm}$ = $\frac{1}{M} \sum x_{i} m_{i}$ i

x_{cm} = $\frac{1}{m+m} ( 0 + l m)$

x_{cm} = $\frac{1}{2m} lm$

x_{cm} = $\frac{1}{2}$

x_{cm} = 13.1 / 2 = 6.05 m

let's calculate

L = 2 6.05 74.3 5.65

L = 5076.5 kg m² / s

What two quantities must stay the same in order for an object to have a constant velocity?

pentagon [3]

<span>Velocity is a vector and it has both speed and direction. It takes a force to change direction just as it does to change speed</span>. In order to have a constant velocity the object must maintain a constant direction and speed. Hope this answers the questions. Have a nice day.
