Answer:
a) 
b) 
Explanation:
Part a
For this case we can begin finding the period like this:
Then we know that the centripetal acceleration is given by:
And the velocity is given by:
If we replace this into the acceleration we got:
And we can replace the values and we got:
Part b
For this case we want to find a value of k such that:
Where a = 9.74, so then we can solve for k like this:
Our year would now be 2.8 times longer, we would also be receiving only 1/4 of the energy from the sun that we currently do. This means that we’d now be out beyond the orbit of Mars and right at the edge of the asteroid belt, and things would rapidly get very cold with temperatures expected to drop by around 50 degrees Celsius on average, and that’s with our current atmospheric composition which would not be stable in the new conditions. And also, any living thing on earth would die.
The frequency of a wave is the number of waves that passes through a point in a certain time. The less waves that pass in a period of time the lower the frequency of the wave. The more waves that pass in a period of time the higher the frequency of the wave. When measuring wave length the time period used is usually one second.
