Answer:

air does not have a modulus of rigidity.

Explanation:

Since air is completely elastic medium, that is, it does not have a modulus of rigidity, therefore sound waves in air are longitudinal.

OLga [1]

Answer:

The energy in its ground state is 10 meV.

Explanation:

It is given that,

The energy of the electron in its first excited state is 40 meV.

Energy of the electron in any state is given by :

E=\dfrac{n^2\pi^2h^2}{8mL^2}

For ground state, n = 1

E_1=\dfrac{\pi^2h^2}{8mL^2}.............(1)

For first excited state, n = 2

40=\dfrac{2^2\pi^2h^2}{8mL^2}.............(2)

Dividing equation (1) and (2), we get :

\dfrac{E_1}{40}=\dfrac{1}{4}

E_1=10\ meV

So, the energy in its ground state is 10 meV. Hence, this is the required solution.

If you have a 1.0 m aqueous solution of NaCl, by how much will it increase the water’s boiling point, if KB = 0.512 °C/m? In oth
fgiga [73]

<u>Answer:</u> The elevation in boiling point is 1.024°C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the elevation in boiling point, we use the equation:

\Delta T_b=ik_b\times m

where,

i = Van't Hoff factor = 2 (for NaCl)

\Delta T_b = change in boiling point  = ?

k_b = boiling point constant = 0.512^oC/m

m = molality = 1.0 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta Tb=2\times 0.512^oC/m\times 1.0m\\\\\Delta Tb=1.024^oC

Hence, the elevation in boiling point is 1.024°C.

Determine the amount of work done by the applied force when a 87 N force is applied to move a 15 kg object a horizontal
elena-s [515]

Answer:

391.5 J

Explanation:

The amount of work done can be calculated using the formula:

  • W = F║d
  • where the force is parallel to the displacement

Looking at the formula, we can see that the mass of the object does not affect the work done on it.

Substitute the force applied and the displacement of the object into the equation.

  • W = (87 N)(4.5 m)
  • W = 391.5 J  

The amount of work done on the object is 391.5 J in order to move it 4.5 meters with an applied force of 87 Newtons.

A 34-m length of wire is stretched horizontally between two vertical posts. The wire carries a current of 68 A and experiences a
il63 [147K]

Answer:

7.28×10⁻⁵ T

Explanation:

Applying,

F = BILsin∅............. Equation 1

Where F = magnetic force, B = earth's magnetic field, I = current flowing through the wire, L = Length of the wire, ∅ = angle between the field and the wire.

make B the subject of the equation

B = F/ILsin∅.................. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: F = 0.16 N, I = 68 A, L = 34 m, ∅ = 72°

Substitute these values into equation 2

B = 0.16/(68×34×sin72°)

B = 0.16/(68×34×0.95)

B = 0.16/2196.4

B = 7.28×10⁻⁵ T
