CaS is the empirical formula of the compound between calcium and sulphur that has the percent composition 55.6.
When percentages are given, we take a total mass of 100 grams.
Therefore the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.
Mass of Ca = 55.6 g (given) of
S Mass = 44.4 g (100 - 55.6 = 44.4)
Step 1: Convert the given mass to moles.
moles Ca = given mass Ca / molar mass Ca
moles = 55.6 / 40 = 1.39 moles
mol S = specific mass S / molar mass S
mol = 44.4 / 32 = 1.39 mol
Step 2: Divide the molar ratio of each molar value by the smallest number of moles calculated.
For Ca = 1.39 / 1.39 = 1
For S = 1.39 / 1.39 = 1
The ratio of Ca : S = 1:1
Hence the empirical formula of the given compound will be CaS.

Sound waves actually travel much faster in water than air, but words and the direction of the noise are distorted.
Answer:
Part(a): The frequency is
.
Part(b): The speed of the wave is
.
Explanation:
Given:
The distance between the crests of the wave,
.
The time required for the wave to laps against the pier, 
The distance between any two crests of a wave is known as the wavelength of the wave. So the wavelength of the wave is
.
Also, the time required for the wave for each laps is the time period of oscillation and it is given by
.
Part(a):
The relation between the frequency and time period is given by

Substituting the value of
in equation (1), we have

Part(b):
The relation between the velocity of a wave to its frequency is given by

Substituting the value of
and
in equation (2), we have

Liquids are pourable because they do not maintain a "solid" structure as solids do, but still have structure, unlike gasses. Why is this? The forces between liquid particles are weaker than the forces between solid particles. The particles are further apart and move around more easily.
