Answer:

Increase

Explanation:

The best way for me to visualize the relation between wavelength, frequency, and energy is to think about actual ocean waves. Wavelength is a measure of the distance between two equivalent points on consecutive waves (think wave peak to wave peak). Lets say you are building a sand castle and want to see how many waves hit your castle over a period of 10 seconds. If the distance between each wave is 10 ft and the wave is traveling at 1 foot per second then you will only have one wave hit your castle. If the wavelength is 1/2 that (5 ft) then you will have 2 waves hit your castle in the same amount of time. This is the same concept behind waves in physics. The smaller the distance between each wave, the more waves and therefore more energy that will be delivered.

What do you think would happen to the force of attraction of two interacting charges if their distance apart is halved?

sweet [91]

Answer:

The new force becomes 4 times the initial force.

Explanation:

The force of attraction or repulsion is given by the relation as follows :

$F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}$

Where

d is the distance between the interacting charges

F is inversely proportional to the distance between charges.

If the distance is halved, d'=(d/2), new force is given by :

$F'=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d'^2}\\\\=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{(\dfrac{d}{2})^2}\\\\=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{\dfrac{d^2}{4}}\\\\=4\times \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}\\\\F'=4F$

So, the new force becomes 4 times the initial force.

Amy is standing still on the ground; Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward; and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s westw

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

20 m/s westward

Explanation:

Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:

$v_B = +5 m/s$ is the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)

$v_C = -15 m/s$ is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy

Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is

$v_B = +5 m/s$

Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be

$v_C' = v_C - v_B = -15 m/s - (+5 m/s) = -20 m/s$

and the direction will be westward (negative sign).
