There are problems with the first sentence, and it's not really needed when
working with this question. So let's just take the 20 (Hz ?) frequency from
the first sentence, and ignore the rest of it for right now.
Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) =
(331 m/s) / (20 Hz) = <em>16.55 meters</em>.
True, the law of inertia effects both moving and non-moving objects.
Speed is scalar, meaning it's only going to be like 74 mph, doesn't matter which direction. Velocity is a vector, meaning it has direction. You can go -74mph when talking about velocity, not speed.
(a) We will use the equation v = u + at
Initial velocity u = 5.00 m/s
Acceleration a = 0.0600 m/s²
time = 8 min = 8 x 60 = 480 s
Final velocity
= u + at
= 5.00 + 0.0600(480)
= 33.8 m/s
The final velocity is 33.8 m/s
