Answer:

Explanation:

goes down as the temperature decreases, and vice versa. Sound's frequency is independent of temperature, while its speed is directly proportional to temperature. Heat, like sound, is a form of kinetic energy. Molecules at higher temperatures have more energy, thus they can vibrate faster. Since the molecules vibrate faster, sound waves can travel more quickly. ... This is faster than 331 meters per second, which is the speed of sound in air at freezing temperatures.

hope this helps!!!!

A 32-cm-long solenoid, 1.8 cm in diameter, is to produce a 0.30-T magnetic field at its center. If the maximum current is 4.5 A,

Answer:

<h2>16,931 turns</h2>

Explanation:

The magnetic field produced is expressed using the formula

$B = \frac{\mu_0NI}{L}$

B is the magnetic field = 0.30T

I is the current produced in the coil = 4.5A

$\mu_0$ is the magnetic permittivity in vacuum = 1.26*10^-6Tm/A

L is the length of the solenoid = 32 cm = 0.32 m

N is the number of turns in the solenoid.

Making N the subject of the formula from the equation above;

$B = \frac{\mu_0NI}{L}\\\\BL = \mu_0NI\\\\Dividing\ both\ sides \ by \ \mu_0I\\\\\frac{BL}{\mu_0I} =\frac{\mu_oNI}{\mu_0I} \\\\$

$N = \frac{BL}{\mu_0I}$

Substituting the give values to get N;

$N = \frac{0.3*0.32}{1.26*10^{-6} * 4.5}\\\\N = \frac{0.096}{0.00000567} \\\\N = 16,931.21$

The number of turns the solenoid must have is approximately 16,931 turns

Distinguish between pressure and force

Naddika [18.5K]

Force is (mass × acceleration) measured in Newton

Pressure is the 'force' per unit area measured in Newton/m^2 (pascal)

Can some one help me ;-;

enyata [817]

Answer: The first answer for the first problem, and the 2nd answer for the second problem

Explanation: For the first one, if it is absolute zero, the molecules would not move at all.

For the second one, the temperature of the sample will increase due to the movement.

Answer: <u>In a divergent plate boundary</u>, seafloor spreading taking place. It leads to the formation of oceans as new materials are added here along the mid-oceanic ridge. There occur volcanism and shallow-focus earthquakes.

<u>In a convergent plate boundary</u>, two plates collide to form high mountain belts and also volcanic eruptions take place. There occur long chains of volcanic as well as island arcs, in association with deep-focus earthquakes.

<u>In a transform plate boundary</u>, two plates slide past each other, conserving the plates. Shallow-focus earthquakes are generated here.

The earth has experienced various geological processes, such as weathering and erosion of rocks, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, mass extinction events, plate tectonic movements and many more. These continuous processes have configured the present shape of the earth's surface.

For example, the breaking up of the supercontinent Pangea divided into Laurasia and Gondwanaland and subsequently formed the present scenario. This separation of continents has taken place due to the convection current that generates in the mantle.
