Answer:

The product of (wavelength) x (frequency) is always the same number ... the wave's speed.

So if the wavelength is somehow reduced to 1/4 its original length, the frequency is immediately multiplied by 4 . That's the only way their product can remain the same.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The answer is 3.48 seconds

Explanation:

The kinematic equation

y= y0+V0*t+1/2*a*(t*t)

-50=0+(0)t+1/2(-9.8)*(t*t)

t=3.194 seconds

During ribbons ball,

x=x0+ Vt+1/2*a*(t*t)

x= 0+(15)*(3.194)+1/2*(0)* (3.194*3.194)

x= 47.9157m

So, distance (D) = 100-47.9157= 52.084m

52.084m=0+15(t)+1/2*(0)(t*t)

t=52.084/15=3.472286= 3.48seconds

We need to find the launch velocity of our new marble launcher. we know that it will launch a 25g marble to a distance of 73 cm,

White raven [17]

The launch velocity of the marble launcher is 34.65 m/s

Given that the launch velocity of marble launcher, launches a 25g marble to a distance of 73 cm (0.73 m) and the marble roll up to 6.2 meters before stopping. The launch height is 20 cm (0.2 m).

The time for landing can be calculated by the second equation of motion formula:

h = ut + $\frac{1}{2}$ g $t^{2}$
