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.

An electron of mass 9.11 1031 kg has an initial speed of 3.00 105 m/s. It travels in a straight line, and its speed increases to

elena55 [62]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of an electron, $m=9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

Initial speed of the electron, $u=3\times 10^5\ m/s$

Final speed of the electron, $v=7\times 10^5\ m/s$

Distance, d = 5 cm = 0.05 m

(a) The acceleration of the electron is calculated using the third equation of motion as :

$a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2d}$

$a=\dfrac{(7\times 10^5)^2-(3\times 10^5)^2}{2\times 0.05}$

$a=4\times 10^{12}\ m/s^2$

Force exerted on the electron is given by :

$F=m\times a$

$F=9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 4\times 10^{12}$

$F=3.64\times 10^{-18}\ N$

(b) Let W is the weight of the electron. It can be calculated as :

$W=mg$

$W=9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 9.8$

$W=8.92\times 10^{-30}\ N$

Comparison,

$\dfrac{F}{W}=\dfrac{3.64\times 10^{-18}}{8.92\times 10^{-30}}$

$\dfrac{F}{W}=4.08\times 10^{11}$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A student is pushing a box across the room. To push the box three times farther, the student needs to do how much work?

Travka [436]

Answer:

Removing some of the books reduced the mass of the box, and less force was needed to push it across the floor.

A force acting on a body causes a change in the momentum of the from 12 kgms-1 to 16 kgms-1 in 0.2 s. calculate the magnitude of

Nonamiya [84]

Answer: Impulse = 4 kgm/s

Explanation:

From the question, you're given the following parameters:

Momentum P1 = 12 kgm/s

Momentum P2 = 16 kgm/s

Time t = 0.2 s

According to second law of motion,

Force F = change in momentum ÷ time

That is

F = (P2 - P1)/t

Cross multiply

Ft = P2 - P1

Where Ft = impulse

Substitute P1 and P2 into the formula

Impulse = 16 - 12 = 4 kgm/s

The magnitude of the impulse is therefore 4 kgm/s.
