The velocity of a given wave remains the same while the wavelength increases. What happens to the frequency of the wave?

Physics
1 answer:
Degger [83]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

B. It decreases proportionally to the wavelength

Explanation:

The relationship between wavelength, velocity, and frequency of a wave is given as;

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

where;

f is the frequency of the wave

v is the velocity of the wave

λ is the wavelength

From the equation above, the frequency of a wave is inversely proportional to its wavelength. As the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases and vice versa.

Therefore, the correct option is "B"

B. It decreases proportionally to the wavelength

which has a greater kinetic energy, a bowling ball that has a mass of 5kg travelling at 6m/s, or a ship that has a mass of 12000
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:bowling ball has greater kinetic energy

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of bowling ball:

mass=m=5kg

Velocity=v=6m/s

Kinetic energy =ke

Ke=0.5 x m x v x v

Ke=0.5 x 5 x 6 x 6

Ke=90J

Kinetic energy of ship:

mass=m=120000kg

velocity=v=0.02m/s

Ke=0.5 x m x v x v

Ke=0.5 x 120000 x 0.02 x 0.02

Ke=24J

Plz help me it’s a true or false question A shorter wire will allow electricity to
mr Goodwill [35]

-- A shorter wire will allow electricity to  move through at a higher rate than a  longer wire . . . True, but "rate" is a poor way to say it. It should say "a higher current".  

-- A short, thick, cold wire is the best  conductor . . .  True

-- How well a material conducts current is an internal factor affecting resistance . . . True

-- If you double the length of a wire, you cut  the resistance in half . . . False. Double the length also means double the resistance.

-- If you double the thickness of a wire, you  cut the resistance in half . . . True

-- Superconductors have no measurable  resistance . . . True. They literally have NO resistance.

-- The higher the temperature of the  conductor, the lower the resistance . . . False. Higher temperature means higher resistance, for almost all conductors.

-- The resistance in a wire with less  thickness is less . . . False. We just said, up above  in Question-#5, "If you double the thickness of a wire, you  cut the resistance in half". Less thickness means more resistance. Just like a highway with fewer lanes.

-- Thickness, length, and temperature are  internal factors that affect resistance . . . False. They affect resistance, but they're external factors.

-- When a light is first switched on the light  bulb's filament has a lower resistance  than after it gives off light for awhile . . . True. Look back 3 questions from here, where it says "Higher temperature means higher resistance".
