                 Wave speed  =  (frequency) x (wavelength)

                                       =  (5 / second)  x  (30 mm) 

                                       =      150 mm/second  =  0.15 meter/second .

Twenty grams of a solid at 70°C is place in 100 grams of a fluid at 20°C. Thermal equilibrium is reached at 30°C.
zaharov [31]

Answer:

c. is more than that of the fluid.

Explanation:

This problem is based on the conservation of energy and the concept of thermal equilibrium

heat= m s \Delta T


m= mass

s= specific heat

\DeltaT=change in temperature

let s1= specific heat of solid and s2= specific heat of liquid

then

Heat lost by solid= 20(s_1)(70-30)=800s_1


Heat gained by fluid=100(s_2)(30-20)=1000s_2


Now heat gained = heat lost

therefore,

1000 S_2=800 S_1

S_1=1.25 S_2

so the specific heat of solid is more than that of the fluid.

A bicyclist in the Tour de France crests a mountain pass as he moves at 18 km/h. At the bottom, 4.0 km farther, his speed is at
Allisa [31]

We are given:

v0 = initial velocity = 18 km/h

d = distance = 4 km

v = final velocity = 75 km/h

a =?

<span>
We can solve this problem by using the formula:</span>

v^2 = v0^2 + 2 a d

 

75^2 = 18^2 + 2 (a) * 4

5625 = 324 + 8a

<span>a = 662.625 km/h^2</span>

A physicist does 100 joules of work on a simple machine that raise a box of bioks through a heigjt of 0.2metres. if the efficien
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

the work converted to thermal energy is 40 J.

Explanation:

Given;

work done by the physicist,w = 100 J

height through which the book is raised, h = 0.2 m

efficiency of machine = 60% = 0.6

The useful work done by the machine is calculated as;

useful work = 0.6 x 100 = 60 J

The wasted energy = 100 J - 60 J

The wasted energy = 40 J

The wasted energy by the machine is possibly converted to thermal energy by the frictional part of the machine.

Therefore, the work converted to thermal energy is 40 J.

How does the amount of acid rain in a area affect the land
Mice21 [21]
The ecological effects of acid rain are most clearly seen in aquatic environments, such as streams, lakes, and marshes where it can be harmful to fish and other wildlife. As it flows through the soil, acidic rain water can leach aluminum from soil clay particles and then flow into streams and lakes. The more acid that is introduced to the ecosystem, the more aluminum is released.

Some types of plants and animals are able to tolerate acidic waters and moderate amounts of aluminum. Others, however, are acid-sensitive and will be lost as the pH declines. Generally, the young of most species are more sensitive to environmental conditions than adults. At pH 5, most fish eggs cannot hatch. At lower pH levels, some adult fish die. Some acidic lakes have no fish. Even if a species of fish or animal can tolerate moderately acidic water, the animals or plants it eats might not. For example, frogs have a critical pH around 4, but the mayflies they eat are more sensitive and may not survive pH below 5.5.

Effects of Acid Rain on Plants and Trees:

Dead or dying trees are a common sight in areas effected by acid rain. Acid rain leaches aluminum from the soil. That aluminum may be harmful to plants as well as animals. Acid rain also removes minerals and nutrients from the soil that trees need to grow.
At high elevations, acidic fog and clouds might strip nutrients from trees’ foliage, leaving them with brown or dead leaves and needles. The trees are then less able to absorb sunlight, which makes them weak and less able to withstand freezing temperatures.
