The wavelength for C1 note is 10.40 m, for A6 note is 0.193 m and for B7 note 0.086 m.

Answer:

Explanation:

Since, wavelength, frequency and speed of sound waves are related to each other, we can determine a single parameter with the help of other two parameters. So in this case, the frequency of different notes are given along with their common speed. So as the frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength then in this case, the wavelength of the notes will be maximum for C1 and minimum for 3951.1 Hz.

Wavelength = Speed / Frequency

Wavelength for C1 note = 340 / 32.7 =10.40 m

Similarly, the wavelength for A6 note = 340/1760=0.193 m

And, the wavelength for B7 note = 340/3951.1 = 0.086 m

So, the wavelength for C1 note is 10.40 m, for A6 note is 0.193 m and for B7 note 0.086 m.

A car traveling at 21 m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 13 seconds. What is its acceleration?

diamong [38]

The formula for acceleration is the velocity times the inverse of time so it would be 21 times 1/13. So roughly 0.0769... is the acceleration(m/s^2).

A piston of volume 0.1 m3 contains two moles of a monatomic ideal gas at 300K. If it undergoes an isothermal process and expands

seropon [69]

Answer:

the work is done by the gas on the environment -is W= - 3534.94 J (since the initial pressure is lower than the atmospheric pressure , it needs external work to expand)

Explanation:

assuming ideal gas behaviour of the gas , the equation for ideal gas is

P*V=n*R*T

where

P = absolute pressure

V= volume

T= absolute temperature

n= number of moles of gas

R= ideal gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

P=n*R*T/V

the work that is done by the gas is calculated through

W=∫pdV= ∫ (n*R*T/V) dV

for an isothermal process T=constant and since the piston is closed vessel also n=constant during the process then denoting 1 and 2 for initial and final state respectively:

W=∫pdV= ∫ (n*R*T/V) dV = n*R*T ∫(1/V) dV = n*R*T * ln (V₂/V₁)

since

P₁=n*R*T/V₁

P₂=n*R*T/V₂

dividing both equations

V₂/V₁ = P₁/P₂

W= n*R*T * ln (V₂/V₁) = n*R*T * ln (P₁/P₂ )

replacing values

P₁=n*R*T/V₁ = 2 moles* 8.314 J/mol K* 300K / 0.1 m3= 49884 Pa

since P₂ = 1 atm = 101325 Pa

W= n*R*T * ln (P₁/P₂ ) = 2 mol * 8.314 J/mol K * 300K * (49884 Pa/101325 Pa) = -3534.94 J
