The unit of frequency, kHz, is also equivalent to 1/kilosecond or 1/1000 seconds. The equation relating wavelength and frequency is:

c = wavelength*frequency, where c is known as the speed of light. But since we are dealing with ultrasound, we use the speed of sound. The speed of sound is dependent on the temperature. The correlation would be:

c = 331 + 0.6T = 331 + 0.6(20°C) = 343 m/s

Therefore,

343 = wavelength * 1/1000
wavelength = 343,000 meters

A mother and daughter are on a seesaw in the park. How far from the center must the 160.9lb mother sit in order to balance the 6
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The mother has to sit 2.17 ft from the center on the other side of the seesaw.

Explanation:

We are trying to find the sum of torques given by the weights of mother and daughter to be zero.

If the torque of the daughter on one side of the pivoting point is given by:

5.5 ft x 63.5 lb x g = 349.25 g ft lb

we need that the absolute value of the torque exerted by the mom (160.9 lb) to be the same in magnitude (and of course opposite direction). So we assume that "d" is the distance at which the mother locates to make this torque equal in magnitude to her daughter's torque:

d x 160.9 lb x g = 349.25 g ft lb

d = 2.17 ft

The age of the universe is around 100,000,000,000,000,000s. A top quark has a lifetime of roughly 0.000000000000000000000001s. W
Maslowich

Answer:

10⁴¹ s quark top lives have been in the history of the universe.

Explanation:

You need to determine how many quark top lives there have been in the history of the universe, that is, what is the age of the universe divided by the lifetime of a top quark. Expressed in a formula, this is:

t\frac{Age of the universe}{Lifetime of a top quark}

Yo know that the "Age of the universe" is 100,000,000,000,000,000  which can also be expressed as 10¹⁷ s .

You also know that the "Lifetime of a top quark" is 0.000000000000000000000001 which can also be expressed as 10⁻²⁴ s.

Then t=\frac{10^{17} }{10^{-24} }

Recalling that the result of dividing two powers of the same base is another power with the same base where the exponent is the subtraction of the initial exponents, it is possible to calculate this division as follows:

t=10^{17-(-24)}

t=10^{17+24}

<u><em>t=10⁴¹ s</em></u>

So <u><em>10⁴¹ s quark top lives have been in the history of the universe.</em></u>

Consider two points in an electric field. The potential at point 1, V1, is 33 V. The potential at point 2, V2, is 175 V. An elec
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

ΔU  = e(V₂ - V₁) and its value ΔU = -2.275 × 10⁻²¹ J

Explanation:

Since the electric potential at point 1 is V₁ = 33 V and the electric potential at point 2 is V₂ = 175 V, when the electron is accelerated from point 1 to point 2, there is a change in electric potential ΔV which is given by ΔV = V₂ - V₁.

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ΔV = V₂ - V₁.

ΔV = 175 V - 33 V.

ΔV = 142 V

The change in electric potential energy ΔU = eΔV = e(V₂ - V₁) where e = electron charge = -1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C and ΔV = electric potential change from point 1 to point 2 = 142 V.

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ΔU = eΔV

ΔU = eΔV

ΔU = -1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C × 142 V

ΔU = -227.484 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

ΔU = -2.27484 × 10⁻²¹ J

ΔU ≅ -2.275 × 10⁻²¹ J

So, the required equation for the electric potential energy change is

ΔU  = e(V₂ - V₁) and its value ΔU = -2.275 × 10⁻²¹ J
