Answer: You could tell if you made an error in your calculations by repeating the steps.

Speed of light is the fastest/maximum in vacuum which is equal to 3 × 10^8 m/s, therefore speed of light through any material equal to 4 × 10^8 m/s is physically and theoretically impossible and therefore incorrect.

The 26-kg sphere c is released from rest when θ = 0∘ and the tension in the spring is f = 100 n
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
You are given the mass of a sphere that is 26 kg sphere and it is released from rest when θ = 0°. You are also given the force of the spring that is F = 100 N. You are asked to find the tension of the spring. Imagine that the sphere is connected to a spring. The spring exerts a tension and the spring exerts gravitational pull. This will follow the second law of newton.

T - F = ma
T = ma + F
T = 26kg (9.81m/s²) + 100 N
T = 355.06 N

Which law of motion accounts for the following statement?
strojnjashka [21]
I know that its not the second law. I'm almost positive its the first one. Please let me know if I'm wrong. This sentence makes no sense when you put it with the third law. So, the first law is my guess...

If the frequency of sound is doubled, how will its speed change? how will its wavelength change?
eimsori [14]

From the given equation we can deduce what changes will occur if the frequency of the sound is doubled

V= f (λ)

Speed = frequency. Wavelength  

When the frequency is doubled, speed will not change. Because speed depends on factors like temperature, air pressure, density of the gas. Since all these factors are unchanged thus speed will remain unchanged

Frequency is the number of waves produced per second. Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional .Thus, if the frequency is doubled the wavelength would be halved.
