Which energy source is formed when organic matter is trapped underground without exposure to air or moisture?. . A. natural gas.

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. coal

Explanation:

Coal is made of remains of organic material including trees and other vegetation which got trapped beneath the earth’s surface or at the bottom of the swamps. After burial below the ground the organic material was acted upon by the high temperature and pressure in the absence of air to form peat. Peat after further processing for a longer period of time converted into coal

A flute is designed so that it plays a frequency of 261.6 Hz, middle C, when all the holes are covered and the temperature is 20

irinina [24]

Answer:

0.655 m

13.468°C

Explanation:

v = Speed of sound at 20.0°C = 343 m/s (general value)

For one both end open we have the expression

$L=\dfrac{\lambda_1}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=\dfrac{\dfrac{v}{f_1}}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=\dfrac{\dfrac{343}{261.6}}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=0.655581039755\ m$

The length of the flute is 0.655 m

Beat frequency is given by

$\Delta f=f_1-f_2\\\Rightarrow 3=261.6-f_2\\\Rightarrow f_2=261.6-3\\\Rightarrow f_2=258.6\ Hz$

Velocity of the wave is

$v=f_2\lambda_1\\\Rightarrow v=258.6\times \dfrac{343}{261.6}\\\Rightarrow v=339.066513761\ m/s$

The temperature is given by

$T=273(\dfrac{v}{331})^2\\\Rightarrow T=273(\dfrac{339.066513761}{331})^2\\\Rightarrow T=286.468227799\ K=286.468227799-273=13.468227799^{\circ}C$

The temperature of the room is 13.468°C

What is meant by specific latent heat of vaporization of water is -2.26mjkg^-1 or -2.26mj/kg?

Otrada [13]

Answer:

The specific latent heat of a substance is the amount of energy required to change the state of one kilo of the substance without change in it temperature.The latent heat of vaporization or evaporation is the heat given to some mass to convert if from the liquid to the vapor phase.

What is the focal length (in meters) of a lens whose radius of curvature is 9. 2 m and has a refractive index 1. 2?

Fed [463]

The focal length (in meters) of a lens whose radius of curvature is 9. 2 m and has a refractive index 1.2 will be 18.4 m

The focal length of a lens is determined when the lens is focused at infinity. Lens focal length tells us the angle of view—how much of the scene will be captured—and the magnification—how large individual elements will be.

Focal length of a lens is the distance between center of lens and focal point . Focal point is a point on principal axis , at which light rays parallel to principal axis meet after refraction through lens or seem to meet after refraction .

The radius of curvature is the radius of sphere formed by the convex or concave mirror. It is also equal to the distance between the pole and center of curvature. The sign convention for focal length and radius of curvature is the same.

focal length = 2 * radius of curvature

given

radius of curvature = 9.2 m

focal length = 2 * 9.2

= 18.4 m
