v = λf

λ = 8 m

300

Which object is moving but has a net force of 0 N?


Object B.

300

Wave that can travel through a vacuum.

Electromagnetic waves.

300
This quantity is conserved before & after a collision.

Momentum

300

When the net force acting on object is zero, the object will do this.

500

The distance between two masses doubles. What happens to the force between them?

Fg = Gm1m2/d2  →   Fg ~ m1m2/d2

Fg ~ 1/4 so the force is quartered.
