For any wave, the product of (wavelength) x (frequency) is always the same number ... it's the speed of the wave.  So if you were able to change the wavelength somehow, the frequency would automatically change, in the opposite direction but by the SAME FACTOR, so that their product would stay the same.

If the frequency of a sound changes (and we're close enough to listen to it), our brain interprets that as a change of pitch, in the same direction as the frequency changed.

Why do scientists often take several measurements of the same object, average them together, and use the average value as the me
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

To minimize the practical errors and improve the accuracy.

Explanation:

  • Scientists take several measurements and use the average of all the measured values to minimize the practical errors due to unavoidable circumstances and be close to the true value.
  • True value is the actual value of a measured parameter without any error, it is the value which is proposed in the design of a certain object.
  • Variations may occur in the measurement due to wear and tear, dust and air pressure. It is almost impossible to create ideal surrounding for the measurement procedure.

A current of 0. 82 a flows through a light bulb. how much charge passes through the light bulb during 94 s?
gladu [14]

A current of 0. 82A flows through a light bulb. The charge passed through the light bulb during 94 s is 77.08C

The amount of charge flown for a given period of time determines the current passed through a bulb or electrical body.

The relation between the charge, current and time is given as:

Q = I × t

where, Q is the charge flown through bulb

I is the current passed through bulb

t is the time for which charge passes through bulb

Given,

I = 0.82A

t = 94s

Q = ?

Substituting the values in the above formula:

Q = I × t

Q = 0.82 × 94

Q = 77.08C

Hence, The charge passed through the light bulb during 94 s is 77.08C
