By the definition of wavelength, the answer is the letter D, the wavelength would decrease.

We can see in the diagram a wave motion.

A wave has some characteristics:

  • Has an amplitude, the distance from 0 to the crest (highest point in the y-direction, point (3) in the figure) it would see in the figure as (2)
  • Has wavelength, the distance between the crests.
  • Has a trough, the lowest point in the y-direction.

Now, if we increase the distance of the crests, by the definition shown above, we will increase the wavelength.

Therefore, the answer is letter D, the wavelength would increase.

An 85-kg refrigerator is located on the 70th floor of a skyscraper (4km above the ground ) what is the potential energy
Airida [17]
Potential energy can be calculated using the following rule:
potential energy = mgh where:
m is the mass = 85 kg
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2
h is the height = 4 km = 4000 meters

Substitute in the above equation to get the potential energy as follows:
Potential energy = 85*9.8*4000 = 3332000 joules

The alpha line in the balmer series of the hydrogen spectrum consists of light having a wavelength of 6.56. calculate the freque
guajiro [1.7K]
The alpha line in the Balmer series is the transition from n=3 to n=2 and with the wavelength of λ=656 nm = 6.56*10^-7 m. To get the frequency we need the formula: v=λ*f where v is the speed of light, λ is the wavelength and f is the frequency, or c=λ*f. c=3*10^8 m/s. To get the frequency: f=c/λ. Now we input the numbers: f=(3*10^8)/(6.56*10^-7)=4.57*10^14 Hz. So the frequency of the light from alpha line is f= 4.57*10^14 Hz.

Mary and her younger brother Alex decide to ride the 26 ft diameter carousel at the State Fair. Mary sits on one of the horses i
hammer [34]

Answer:

a_M=1.92a_A

Explanation:

\omega_M=\omega_A = Angular speed

r_M = Distance of Mary = 11.5 ft

r_A = Distance of Alex = 6 ft

Ratio of centripetal acceleration is given by

\dfrac{a_M}{a_A}=\dfrac{\omega_M^2r_M}{\omega_A^2r_A}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{a_M}{a_A}=\dfrac{r_M}{r_A}\\\Rightarrow a_M=a_A\dfrac{r_M}{r_A}\\\Rightarrow a_M=\dfrac{11.5}{6}a_A\\\Rightarrow a_M=1.92a_A

Mary's centripetal acceleration is 1.92 times the centripetal acceleration of Alex
