Which statement BEST explains why the specific heat of water is higher than the specific heat of most other substances? A) Due t

o its polarity and hydrogen bonding water can absorb heat without a significant temperature change. B) Due to the ionic bonding in liquid water, it takes more heat energy to reach boiling. C) Because water is a covalent compound, it takes a lot of energy to change its kinetic energy. D) Water has a higher density value than most substances and requires more energy to change the temperature.

Heather and Matt take 34 minutes to walk eastward along a straight road to a store 2.0km away. What is their average velocity in
frez [133]

Their average velocity is 0.98 m/s east.

Explanation:

The average velocity of an object is defined as the ratio between the displacement and the time taken:

v=\frac{displacement}{time}

The displacement is a vector connecting the initial point to the final point of motion: so, being displacement a vector, velocity is a vector as well, having the same direction of displacement.

Here, Heather and Matt walk 2.0 km eastward, so their displacement is

d = 2.0 km = 2000 m (east)

While the time they took is

t=34 min \cdot 60 = 2040 s

Therefore, their average velocity is

v=\frac{2000}{2040}=0.98 m/s

And the direction is the same as the displacement (east).

The human ear canal is about 2.9 cm long and can be regarded as a tube open at one end and closed at the eardrum. What is the fu
solniwko [45]

The frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.

Explanation:

As the ear canal is like a tube with open at one end, the wavelength of sound passing through this tube will propagate 4 times its length of the tube. So wavelength of the sound wave will be equal to four times the length of the tube. Then the frequency can be easily determined by finding the ratio of velocity of sound to wavelength. As the velocity of sound is given as 339 m/s, then the wavelength of the sound wave propagating through the ear canal is  

Wavelength=4*Length of the ear canal

As length of the ear canal is given as 2.9 cm, it should be converted into meter as follows:

wavelength = 4*2.9*10^{-2} =0.116

Then the frequency is determined as

f=c/λ=339/0.116=2922 Hz=2.92 kHz.

So, the frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.
