If a wave has amplitude of 2 meters, a wavelength of 2 meters, and a frequency of 10 Hz, and a period of 1 second, then at what
Serhud [2]

Answer:

20 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by:

v=\lambda f

where

\lambda is the wavelength

f is the frequency

v is the speed

For the wave in this problem,

f = 10 Hz is the frequency

\lambda=2 m is the wavelength

So the speed is

v=(10 Hz)(2 m)=20 m/s

A bowling ball is rolling in a straight line toward the pins at a speed of 2.2 m/s. Its momentum is 4.75 kg*m/s. What is the
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer: m= 2.16 kg

Explanation: Momentum is expressed in the following formula:

p = mv

Derive to find m:

m = p / v

= 4.75 kg.m/s / 2.2 m/s

= 2.16 kg

Cancel out m/s and the remaining unit is in kg.

Is there carbon atoms in the compound Ca3N2​
katen-ka-za [31]

No, there are not any carbon atoms inside this compound.

The compound is Ca_3N_2. This means there are 3 "Ca" atoms and 2 "N" atoms.

  • Ca is calcium
  • N is nitrogen

Thus, none of the elements in this compound are carbon, meaning there are no carbon atoms. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
