Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) = (460 m/s) / (230/sec) = <em>2 meters</em>
Answer:
A. the pressure decrease
Explanation:
pressure decreases when the surface area over which a force is applied increases. pressure increases when the surface area over which force is applied decreases.
weightlessness is the complete or near complete absense of the sensation of weight.
when in freefall,the only force acting upon your body is the force of gravity a noun contact force.since the gravity cannot be felt without any other opposing forces,you would have no sensation of it.you would feel weightless when in a state of freefall.
Gravity obeys the inverse square law. At 6400 km above the center of the Earth (Earth's surface) you weigh x. Twice that reduces your weight to 1/4th. Four times that height reduces your weight to 1/16th. 4 times 6400 km is 25,600 km. But that is above the center of the earth, and the question requests the height above the surface, so we deduct 6400 km to arrive at our final answer: 19,200 km.
Incidentally, it doesn't exactly work the opposite way. At the center of the Earth the mass would be equally distributed around you, and you would therefore be weightless.
