Answer:

The average acceleration during the 6.0 s interval was -27 m/s².

Explanation:

Hi there!

The average acceleration is defined as the change in velocity over time:

a = Δv/t

Where:

a = acceleration.

Δv = change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

t = elapsed time

The change in velocity will be:

Δv = final velocity - initial velocity

Δv = -74 m/s - 87 m/s = -161 m/s

(notice the negative sign of the velocity that is in opposite direction to the direction considered positive)

Then the average acceleration will be:

a = Δv/t

a = -161 m/s / 6.0 s

a = -27 m/s²

The average acceleration during the 6.0 s interval was -27 m/s².

If the speed of a wave is 1500m/sec and its frequency is 200 Hz, what is its wavelength
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

The wavelength of wave is 7.5 meter.

Given:

Speed of wave = 1500 \frac{m}{s}

Frequency of wave = 200 Hz

To find:

Wavelength of wave = ?

Formula used:

\lambda = \frac{v}{n}

Where \lambda = wavelength of the wave

v = speed of wave

n = frequency of wave

Solution:

Wavelength of wave is given by,

\lambda = \frac{v}{n}

Where \lambda = wavelength of the wave

v = speed of wave

n = frequency of wave

\lambda = \frac{1500}{200}

\lambda = 7.5 m

The wavelength of wave is 7.5 meter.

Ultrasonic images are obtained from the inside organs of our body. This process uses which property of sound wave?
Temka [501]

This question involves the concepts of echo, ultrasonic images, ultrasonic sound waves.

The process of ultrasonic images uses the "echo" property of the sound waves.

Echo is the property of the sound wave by the virtue of which the sound wave reflects back to the source of the sound after hitting a surface or an object.

Ultrasonic images are obtained from inside organs of our body. This process involves the use of ultrasonic sound waves that have a frequency greater than 20,000 Hz. These sound waves are out of the range of audible sound by the human ear. When these ultrasonic sound waves are sent in form of pulses into the human body by the use of probes, they reflect back from the tissues of different organs to the probe. The probe then records the reflection properties of these sound waves and displays them in form of an image, known as ultrasonic images.
