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 large mass collides with a stationary, smaller mass. How will the masses behave if the collision is inelastic?

iragen [17]

Logically both masses will collide and well make a reaction. first of all depending on the small mass it will either merge or unite with the big mass or it will bounce away from it . if this happen it will make a reaction that will affect both masses. Hope this helps if it is incorrect please let me know :)

Which wavelength would scientists use to measure the molecular structure of H2O?

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

To find out what water is made of, it helps to look at its chemical formula, which is H2O. This basically tells us that the water molecule is composed of two elements: hydrogen and oxygen or, more precisely, two hydrogen atoms (H2) and one oxygen atom (O).

The plane of a rectangular coil, 7.2 cm by 3.7 cm, is perpendicular to the direction of a uniform magnetic field B. If the coil

netineya [11]

Answer:

The rate of change of magnetic field is 2.23 T/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Dimension of rectangular coil is 7.2 cm by 3.7 cm.

Number of turns in the coil, N = 104

Resistance of the coil, R = 12.4 ohms

Current, I = 0.05 A

We need to find the rate of change of magnetic field in the coil. The induced emf is given by the rate of change of magnetic flux. So,

$\epsilon=-\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}$

Ohm's law is :

$\epsilon=IR$

So,

$IR=-\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}\\\\IR=-\dfrac{d(NBA)}{dt}\\\\IR=-NA\dfrac{dB}{dt}\\\\\dfrac{dB}{dt}=\dfrac{IR}{NA}\\\\\dfrac{dB}{dt}=\dfrac{0.05\times 12.4}{104\times 7.2\times 10^{-2}\times 3.7\times 10^{-2}}\\\\\dfrac{dB}{dt}=2.23\ T/s$

So, the rate of change of magnetic field is 2.23 T/s.

Ivan pushes a dresser with full drawers across his carpeted floor. What could Ivan do to reduce the amount of friction between t

aniked [119]

Answer:

Place some smooth tiles under the dresser

Smooth surfaces, like smooth tile, are easy to slide over. They create very little friction. Rough surfaces like carpet create much more friction.

remove the drawers from the dresser

Weight affects friction in that friction is directly proportional to the weight of the load one is moving. So reduce the weight, reduce the friction.

Explanation:

Speed does not impact friction, so moving the dresser slower won't help. Wind has nothing to do with the scenario, so that's not a correct option.

Sam is moving house and is carrying a 300N box of books up a flight of steps 5m high, it takes her 30 seconds. Gary follows her

hjlf

Answer:

Sam is providing the biggest power i.e. 50 W

Explanation:

Sam is moving house and is carrying a 300N box of books up a flight of steps 5m high, it takes her 30 seconds.

Sam's power :

$P_1=\dfrac{W_1}{t_1}\\\\P_1=\dfrac{F_1d}{t_1}\\\\P_1=\dfrac{300\times 5}{30}\\\\P_1=50\ W$

Gary follows her carrying a bag of clothes doing 1000 J of work; it only takes him 25 seconds.

Gary's power :

$P_2=\dfrac{W_2}{t_2}\\\\P_2=\dfrac{1000}{25}\\\\P_2=40\ W$

So, it is clear that Sam is providing the biggest power.
