Sonar is a device that uses reflected sound waves to measure underwater depths. If a sonar signal has a wavelength of 5.9 m and

the velocity of sound in water is 15 m/s, what is the frequency of the signal?

The frequency of the signal is = 2.5 Hz

<h3>Calculation of frequency</h3>

The wavelength of the sonar device = 5.9 m

The velocity of the sound = 15 m/s

The frequency = ?

But the formula for the velocity of sound wave = frequency × wavelength

Male frequency the subject of formula,

f = v/ wavelength

f = 15/5.9

f = 2.5Hz

Therefore, the frequency of the signal is = 2.5Hz

A 56.0kg ice skater spins about a vertical axis through her body with her arms horizontally outstretched, making 2.50 turns each
Arada [10]

Answer:

Net force = 129.4, Force as multiple of weight of her hand = 18.84

Explanation:

Given Data:

Total body weight = 56.0 kg   ;

no. of turns = 2.5/second        ;

hand to hand distance = 1.5m ;

weight of hand = 1.25% of body weight ;

Solution:

mass of hand = \frac{1.25}{100}*56 = 0.7kg ;

radius = d/2 = 1.5/2 = 0.75m     ;

Now we need to find velocity, as we know that velocity can be calculated by dividing distance by time

v = d/t = \frac{2.5*2*3.14*0.75}{1} = 11.775 m/s or 12 m/s;

a.

The formula to calculate force is given as

F = mv²/r = (0.7*11.775²)/0.75 = 129.4 N

b.

To calculate force as multiple of weight on her hand, we need to calculate the gravitational force W on her hand first.

W = gm = 9.81 * 0.7 = 6.867 N

Now the wieght on her hand can be represented by

\frac{Force_{net} }{weight of hand}  = 129.4 / 6.867 = 18.84

Theo mixes cake batter and places it in the oven at 350°F for 45 minutes. Explain what type of reaction baking a cake represents
Nataly_w [17]

Baking a cake creates a endothermic reaction. When heated, the baking soda/powder reacts, the eggs change form, and everything else follows suit. The baking soda/powder creates the rising of the cake.

A bulldozer and a Mini Cooper are involved in a head-on collision. Which one experiences a greater force
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The mini Cooper will experience the greater force

Explanation:

Generally, a bulldozer has a greater mass compared to a Mini Cooper hence when both of these vehicles interact in an head on collision the Mini Cooper will experience a greater force because the bulldozer has a greater momentum
