M = 10.0 g, the mass of the iron sample
ΔT = 75 - 25.2 = 49.5°C, the decrease in temperature
c = 0.449 J/(g-°C), the specific heat of iron

The heat released is
Q = m*c*ΔT
    = (10.0 g)*(0.449 J/(g-°C))*(49.5 C)
    = 222.255 J

Answer: 222.3 J (nearest tenth)

The frequency of a wave is 200 Hz. The wavelength is 0.1 m. What is the period of the wave?
Aleks04 [339]
The formula for the period of wave is: wave period is equals to 1 over the frequency.waveperiod=\frac{1}{frequency}
To get the value of period of wave you need to divide 1 by 200 Hz. However, beforehand, you have to convert 200 Hz to cycles per second. So that would be, 200 cyles per second or 200/s.
By then, you can start the computation by dividing 1 by 200/s. Since 200/s is in fractional form, you have to find its reciprocal form and multiply it to one which would give you 1 (one) second over 200. This would then lead us to the value 0.005 seconds as the wave period.

wave period= 1/200 Hz
Convert Hz to cycles per second first
200 Hz x 1/s= 200/second
Make 200/second as your divisor, so:

wave period= 1/ 200/s

get the reciprocal form of 200/s which is s/200

then you can start the actual computation:

wave period= 1 x s divided by 200

this would give us an answer of 0.005 s.

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

finding Cepheid variable and measuring their periods.

Explanation:

This method is called  finding Cepheid variable and measuring their periods.

Cepheid variable is actually a type of star that has a radial pulsation having a varying brightness and diameter. This change in brightness is very well defined having a period and amplitude.

A potent clear link between the luminosity and pulsation period of a Cepheid variable developed Cepheids as an important determinants of cosmic criteria for scaling galactic and extra galactic distances. Henrietta Swan Leavitt revealed this robust feature of conventional Cepheid in 1908 after observing thousands of variable stars in the Magellanic Clouds. This in fact turn, by making comparisons its established luminosity to its measured brightness, allows one to evaluate the distance to the star.

What is the force of gravity for a 12 kg turkey?<br><br> Please help asap
pogonyaev

Answer: 117.6N

Explanation:

By the second Newton's law, we know that:

F = m*a

F = force

m = mass

a = acceleration

We know that in the surface of the Earth, the gravitational acceleration is g = 9.8m/s^2.

Then we just can input that acceleration in the above equation, and also replace m by 12kg, and find that the force due the gravity is:

F = 12kg*9.8m/s^2 = 117.6N
