The speed of the ball is 101miles/hr.

A mile is a unit of length that is exactly 1,609.344 metres long. Similarly, 5,280 feet or 1,760 yards make up one mile. The mile is an imperial and common US measurement of distance.

We just have to deal with unit conversions.

One mile is 5280 feet, or  1 ft = 0.000189

The speed of the ball in miles per hour is

\frac{148ft}{1sec} . \frac{1mile}{5280ft} .\frac{60s}{1min} .\frac{60min}{1hr}

So, the speed of the ball in miles per hour is 101miles/hr.

A circuit consists of a series combination of 6.50 −kΩ and 4.50 −kΩ resistors connected across a 50.0-V battery having negligibl
Vlada [557]

Answer:

Part A: 16.1 V

Part B: 20.5 V

Part C: 21.5%

Explanation:

The voltmeter is in parallel with the 4.5-kΩ resistor and the combination is in series with the 6.5-kΩ resistor. The equivalent resistance of the parallel combination is given as

\dfrac{1}{R_E}=\dfrac{1}{4.50}+\dfrac{1}{10.0}

R_E=\dfrac{4.50\times10.0}{4.50+10.0} = 3.10

Part A

The voltmeter reading is the potential difference across the parallel combination. This is found by using the voltage-divider rule.

V_1 = \dfrac{3.10}{3.10+6.50}\times50.0 = \dfrac{3.10}{9.60}\times50.0 = 16.1 \text{ V}

Part B

Without the voltmeter, the potential difference across the 4.5-kΩ resistor is found using the same rule as above:

V_2 = \dfrac{4.50}{4.50+6.50}\times50.0 = \dfrac{4.50}{11.0}\times50.0 = 20.5 \text{ V}

Part C

The error in % is given by

\dfrac{20.5-16.1}{20.5}\times100\% = \dfrac{4.4}{20.5}\times100\% = 21.5\%

Alinara [238K]
The specific heat of a metal or any element or compound can be determined using the formula Cp = delta H / delta T / mass. delta pertains to change. That is change in enthalpy and change in temperature. From the given data, Cp is equal to 343 cal per (86-19) c per 55 grams. This is equal to 0.093 cal / g deg. Celsius

A young child is playing with a very flexible hose. She is moving her hand back and forth making transverse type waves. She move
aev [14]

Answer:

The waves will increase in frequency

Explanation:

As the young girl moves her hand back and forth faster, it will be observed that number of back and forth motions increase every second. Also the distance between crest and trough of the wave (wavelength) will be reduced as she moves her hand back and forth faster.

Frequency = number of turns (moves) per second

The waves will increase in frequency since there will be more number of back and forth motions in every second.

Also,

The distance between crest and trough will be reduced, which implies that there will be decrease in waves wavelength.

This can also be verified using wave equation;

V = Fλ

At constant velocity,

F ∝ ¹/λ

Thus, decrease in wavelength will cause increase in frequency of the waves.

The right answer is : The waves will increase in frequency
