Answer:

The frequency of wave is 160Hz.

Explanation:

Given that the formula of speed is V = f×λ where V represents speed, f is frequency and λ is wavelength.

So first thing, you have to make frequency the subject by dividing wavelength on both sides :

$v = f \times λ \:$

$v \div λ = f \times λ \div λ$

$f = \frac{v}{λ}$

Next you have to substitute the value of v and f into the formula :

Let λ = 2.5m,

Let v = 400m/s,

$f = \frac{400}{2.5}$

$f = 160Hz$

What happens along a stationary front?

oee [108]

Answer: b. The flow of air is neither toward the warm air mass nor toward the cold air mass.

A stationary front forms between two air masses. A stationary front results when the warm front or cold front air stops moving. This occurs due to the fact that warm front and cold front air masses being opposite to each other but neither of them are able to repel the other. This affects the climatic conditions of the region. The weather is often cloudy along a stationary front and also supported with fall of rain and snow especially if the air in the front is cold with low atmospheric pressure.

<em>Therefore, along a stationary front the flow of air is neither toward the warm air mass nor toward the cold air mass. </em>

A student throws a rock horizontally off a 5.0 m tall building. The rock's initial speed is 6.0 m/s. How long will it take the r

Archy [21]

Answer:

The time taken by the rock to reach the ground is 0.569 seconds.

Explanation:

Given that,

A student throws a rock horizontally off a 5.0 m tall building, s = 5 m

The initial speed of the rock, u = 6 m/s

We need to find the time taken by the rock to reach the ground. Using second equation of motion to find it. We get :
