Answer:
Protons , neutrons and elections
1). The equation is: (speed) = (frequency) x (wavelength)
Speed = (256 Hz) x (1.3 m) = 332.8 meters per second
2). If the instrument is played louder, the amplitude of the waves increases.
On the oscilloscope, they would appear larger from top to bottom, but the
horizontal size of each wave doesn't change.
If the instrument is played at a higher pitch, then the waves become shorter,
because 'pitch' is directly related to the frequency of the waves, and higher
pitch means higher frequency and more waves in any period of time.
If the instrument plays louder and at higher pitch, the waves on the scope
become taller and there are more of them across the screen.
3). The equation is: Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)
(Notice that this is exactly the same as the equation up above in question #1,
only with each side of that one divided by 'wavelength'.)
Frequency = 300,000,000 meters per second / 1,500 meters = 200,000 per second.
That's ' 200 k Hz ' .
Note:
I didn't think anybody broadcasts at 200 kHz, so I looked up BBC Radio 4
on-line, and I was surprised. They broadcast on several different frequencies,
and one of them is 198 kHz !
Answer:
C) Burmese pythons lack natural predators and can utilize a wide variety of food sources in the Everglades.
Explanation:
Due to it being an invasive specie (naturally found in South Asia), and also one of the five largest species of snakes in the world, the Burmese pythons lack natural predators in this new territories.
The Burmese viper is also an opportunistic hunter and would eat anything it can overpower, it easily made a wide range of food varieties in these swamps.
Answer:
The entropy of a gas increases when it expands into a vacuum because the number of possible states increases .
Explanation:
When a gas expand in a vacuum, the molecules of the gases vibrates very fast and starting moving with higher velocity in random directions which means the level of disorder in the gases increases.
Now the possible state of the gas molecule increases such as the particle can be located at different position due to increased randomness.
<u>Entropy is the measure of this randomness and thus with this increased randomness entropy also increases.</u>
