Wave speed = wavelength* frequency
(M/s). (M). (Hz)

8mm-0.008m

0.008m*4Hz=
Wave speed = 0.032m/s

Remember that the speed of a wave is the product of both the wavelength and the frequency of the wave.

First convert the units to m and then multiply the values to calculate its propagation or wave speed.

C = lambda • frequency.

A hot air balloon is filled with 1.45 × 10 6 L of an ideal gas on a cool morning ( 11 ∘ C ) . The air is heated to 109 ∘ C . Wha

just olya [345]

Answer:

The volume of air after the balloon is heated = 1.95 × 10⁶ L

Explanation:

Charles Law: Charles' law states that the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to the temperature in Kelvin, provided that the pressure remains constant.

It can be expressed mathematically as,

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

Making V₂ The subject of the equation

V₂ = (V₁/T₁)T₂.................... Equation 1

Where V₁ = Initial Volume, T₁ = Initial Temperature, V₂ = Final Volume, T₂ = final Temperature

Given: V₁ = 1.45 × 10⁶ L, T₁ = 11 °C = (11 + 273) K = 284 K, T₂ = 109 °C = (109 + 273) = 382 K.

Substituting these values into equation 1 above,

V₂ = (1.45×10⁶)382/284

V₂ = 1.95 × 10⁶ L

Therefore the volume of air after the balloon is heated = 1.95 × 10⁶ L

Multiple-Concept Example 6 reviews the concepts that play a role in this problem. A diver springs upward with an initial speed o

adell [148]

Answer:

Part a)

$v_f = 7.99 m/s$

Part b)

$y = 3.25 m$

Explanation:

Part a)

Since the diver is moving under gravity

so here its acceleration due to gravity will be uniform throughout the motion

so here we will have

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a y$

here we have

$v_i = 2.22 m/s$

$y = -3 m$

$v_f^2 - (2.22)^2 = 2(-9.81)(-3)$

$v_f = 7.99 m/s$

Part b)

at highest point of his motion the final speed will be zero

so we will have

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a (\Delta y)$

$0 - 2.22^2 = 2(-9.81)(y - 3)$

$y = 3.25 m$

The brakes of a lorry are in a poor condition

Vlada [557]

Answer:

friction

Explanation:

Her brakes will squeak and possibly slide or skid on concrete due to her brakes.

BUT it really depends on the condition of the wheels. Now it matters on the surface as well. Has the road been eroded? what has happened with her brakes? and what texture are the wheels? can seismic waves travel through them?
