Answer: .04 meters

Explanation: The first thing that you want to do is convert .4 kHz to Hz. To do this, you multiply the number by 10^{3}. You should ger 400 Hz. After you've done so, you're going to look at the equation "wavelength = velocity/frequency." You then plug in the numbers into the equation: "wavelength = (16 m/s)/(400 Hz) The resulting answer is .04 meters

Answer: 0.04metres

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave is the distance covered by the wave after one complete cycle. It is measured in metres, and represented by the symbol λ

Recall that Velocity (V) = Frequency F x wavelength λ

V = F λ

Make λ the subject formula

λ = V / F

In this case Frequency = 0.4 kHz

Convert kilohertz to hertz by multiplying 0.4 by 1000 i.e (0.4 x 1000Hz) = 400Hz

Velocity of wave = 16 m/s

So, λ = V / F

λ = 16 m/s / 400Hz

λ = 0.04metres

Thus, the wavelength of a wave is 0.04metres

An alleles is dominant is heterozygote when it is
Fittoniya [83]

An allele is dominant and heterzygote (Pp) when a dominant allele (P) is crossed with a recessive allele (p).

Explanation:

A dominant allele is the one with a particular dominant character or phenotype which dominates even though there are other alleles found.  

A heterozygous allele results from two different alleles coding for a gene.

A heterozygous dominant allele (Pp) results from the crossing of a dominant allele (P) with a recessive allele due to complete masking of the recessive allele (p).

For example, when dominant brown eyes are crossed with recessive blue eyes, in a heterozygous dominant allele results in brown eyes and masks the recessive blue eyes.

Astronomers studying the planet of Rhombus have detected sedimentary rock on its surface. One astronomer wonders if material in
Gwar [14]
Answer:
igneous rock CAN become sedimentary rock through a process called ROCK CYCLE.
Explanation:
Rocks can be defined as solid structures of minerals that are formed naturally over a period of time. They are grouped into three main types which includes the following:
- igneous rock
- sedimentary rocks and
- metamorphic rocks.
Rocks are capable of transforming from one type to another through a process known as rock cycle. There are two forces that brings about this process which includes:
- The internal force : this is the Earth’s internal heat engine, which moves material around in the core and the mantle and leads to slow but significant changes within the crust.
- The external force: this is the the hydrological cycle, which is the movement of water, ice, and air at the surface, and is powered by the sun.
Molten magma cools to form either extrusive igneous rock or intrusive igneous rock. With time they undergo weathering, eroded, transported, and then deposited as sediments which are being compressed and cemented into SEDIMENTARY ROCKS. Again through the above mentioned forces, different kinds of rocks are either uplifted, to be re-eroded, or buried deeper within the crust where they are heated up, squeezed, and changed into METAMORPHIC ROCK.
Therefore the material in this sedimentary rock found in Rhombus planet used to be in igneous rock deep in Rhombus's interior due to continuous rock cycling on the planet. I hope this helps
