\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}

Wavelength, Wavespeed and frequency depends on each other in the following way :

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: frequency =  \dfrac{wave \:  \: velocity}{wavelength}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: f =  \dfrac{389}{8}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: f \approx 48.62 \:  \: hertz

And we know the Reciprocal relationship between frequency and period ~

So, let's find it's period •

\sf{\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: t = \dfrac{8}{389}}

\sf{\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: t \approx 0.02 sec }

does it require more energy to brew 12 cups with the coffee-maker or reheat 12 cups of coffee in a microwave?
Leni [432]
It would take more energy to reheat 12 cups because only 1 or 2 cups can fit in a microwave rather an than brewing 12 cups in a coffee pot.

Xavier is administering medication to his patient. He administers four cups 4 points
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

11 ounces

Explanation:

The patient gets 11 ounces of liquid.

From the description of this problem:

        Xavier administers  four cups of liquid each containing two ounces

The number of ounces in the four cups = 2 x 4  = 8ounces

Also,

   One cup of the liquid contains 3 ounces.

Total number of ounces administered  = 8 + 3  = 11 ounces.

When the pivot point of a balance is not at the center of mass of the balance, how is the net torque on the balance calculated
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

It is calculated as Force × perpendicular distance.

Explanation:

Torque is a rotational force and twisting force that can cause an object to rotate in it's axis. This cause angular rotation.

The torque due to gravity on a body about its centre of mass is zero because the centre of mass is the that point of the body at which the force acts by the gravity that is mg.

But if the pivot point of a balance is not at the centre of mass of the balance, it will be FORCE × PERPENDICULAR DISTANCE because at that point, there is no centre in which the force act on a body by gravity. The distance and force will be use to calculate.

5) State whether the following waves are transverse, longitudinal, or both. Also, for each, identify the medium that moves as th
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

<h2>sound :</h2>

a longitudinal wave the particle displacement is parallel to the direction of wave propagation. The animation at right shows a one-dimensional longitudinal plane wave propagating down a tube. The particles do not move down the tube with the wave; they simply oscillate back and forth about their individual equilibrium positions. Pick a single particle and watch its motion. The wave is seen as the motion of the compressed region (ie, it is a pressure wave), which moves from left to right.

The second animation at right shows the difference between the oscillatory motion of individual particles and the propagation of the wave through the medium. The animation also identifies the regions of compression and rarefaction.

The P waves (Primary waves) in an earthquake are examples of Longitudinal waves. The P waves travel with the fastest velocity and are the first to arrive.

Explanation:

<h2>earthquakes :</h2>

In a transverse wave the particle displacement is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. The animation below shows a one-dimensional transverse plane wave propagating from left to right. The particles do not move along with the wave; they simply oscillate up and down about their individual equilibrium positions as the wave passes by. Pick a single particle and watch its motion.

The S waves (Secondary waves) in an earthquake are examples of Transverse waves. S waves propagate with a velocity slower than P waves, arriving several seconds later.

<h2>oceans :</h2>

Water waves are an example of waves that involve a combination of both longitudinal and transverse motions. As a wave travels through the waver, the particles travel in clockwise circles. The radius of the circles decreases as the depth into the water increases. The animation at right shows a water wave travelling from left to right in a region where the depth of the water is greater than the wavelength of the waves. I have identified two particles in orange to show that each particle indeed travels in a clockwise circle as the wave passes.
