The speed of the wave depends on what?

1 answer:

4 0

The speed of a mechanical wave depends on the mechanical properties
of the medium through which the wave is traveling.

The speed of an electromagnetic wave depends on the electrical properties
of the medium through which the wave is traveling.

It's pretty well unanimous for choice A .

If a circuit has a power of 50 W with a current of 4.5 A, what is the resistance in the circuit?

lawyer [7]

Answer:

${ \rm{power, \: p = current \times p.d}} \\ { \rm{50 = 4.5 \times (current \times resistance)}} \\ { \rm{50 = 4.5 \times (4.5 \times r)}} \\ { \rm{resistance = \frac{50}{ {4.5}^{2} } }} \\ \\ { \rm{resistance = 2.5 \: ohms}}$

Metals are used in many products because of the characteristic properties that most metals share. Which properties of the metal

Anastaziya [24]

The most important characteristics that are exhibited by metals are-

1- Metals are ductile

2-Most metals are conductive in nature.

3-Most metals are malleable.

4- Metals have strong inter molecular force of attraction between the.

5-Metals have luster.

6-Metals are sonorous.

Here we are given Tungsten filament.

Tungsten is a metal.So it must be conductive and as well as ductile in nature.

The electric filament that we are using in our electric bulb glows due to the heating effect of current.Hence the chosen substances for glowing electric bulb must have high melting point.

The melting point of tungsten is 1650 degree celsius which is very high.That's why it is used in electric bulb.

Hence the correct answer to the question is the third one i.e Tungsten is ductile,has a high melting point, and is electrically conductive.

As the concentration of a solute in a solution increases, the freezing point of the solution ________ and the vapor pressure of

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

As the concentration of a solute in a solution increases, the freezing point of the solution decrease and the vapor pressure of the solution decrease .

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point :

$\Delta T_f=K_f\times m$

where,

$\Delta T_f$ =depression in freezing point =

$K_f$ = freezing point constant

m = molality ( moles per kg of solvent) of the solution

As we can see that from the formula that higher the molality of the solution is directly proportionate to the depression in freezing point which means that:

If molality of the solution in high the depression in freezing point of the solution will be more.
If molality of the solution in low the depression in freezing point of teh solution will be lower .

Relative lowering in vapor pressure of the solution is given by :

$\frac{p_o-p_s}{p_o}=\chi_{solute}$

$p_o$ = Vapor pressure of pure solvent

$p_s$ = Vapor pressure of solution

$\chi_{solute}$ = Mole fraction of solute

$p_s\propto \frac{1}{\chi_{solute}}$

Vapor pressure of the solution is inversely proportional to the mole fraction of solute.

Higher the concentration of solute more will the be solute's mole fraction and decrease in vapor pressure of the solution will be observed.
lower the concentration of solute more will the be solute's mole fraction and increase in vapor pressure of the solution will be observed.
