<span>A body wave is a seismic wave that moves through the interior of the earth, as opposed to surface waves that travel near the earth's surface.

 P and S waves are body waves. Each type of wave shakes the ground in different ways</span>

A wave travels at a constant speed. How does the frequency change if the wavelength is reduced by a factor of 4
sweet-ann [11.9K]

The product of (wavelength) x (frequency) is always the same number ... the wave's speed.  

So if the wavelength is somehow reduced to  1/4  its original length, the <em>frequency is immediately multiplied by 4</em> .  That's the only way their product can remain the same.

If the resultant force acting on a 2.0 kg object is equal to (3.0î + 4.0ĵ) N, what is the change in kinetic energy as the object
12345 [234]

Answer:

ΔK = 24 joules.

Explanation:

ΔK = Work done on the object

Work is equal to the dot product of force supplied and the displacement of the object.

W = F * Δs

Δs can be found by subtracting the vectors (7.0, -8.0) and (11.0, -5.0), which is written as Δs = (11.0 - 7.0, -5.0 - -8.0) which equals (4.0, 3.0).

This gives us

W = < 3, 4 > * < 4, 3 > = (3*4)+(4*3) = 24 J
