Answer: 1000 Hz

Explanation:

You can calculate frequency by dividing velocity by wavelength

Frequency = velocity/wavelength

Find velocity first.

900 m/3 s = 300 m/s

Plug values in to find frequency.

F = (300 m/s)/0.3 m

F = 1000 Hz

High specific heat of the water. Option (c)

What is Specific heat?

The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius is referred to as the substance's specific heat. Typically, calories or joules are used per gram and degree Celsius when referring to the units of specific heat.

The moderate temperature of islands has much to do with the water's high specific heat. The typical off-water is more significant than this clear land or soil. Due to this fact, water absorbs and releases eat more slowly. In comparison to the land.

Hence, the water has high specific heat.

What are subtomic particles<br>

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

In the physical sciences, subatomic particles are smaller than atoms. They can be composite particles, such as the neutron and proton; or elementary particles, which according to the standard model are not made of other particles. Particle physics and nuclear physics study these particles and how they interact.

Suppose a 4.0-kg projectile is launched vertically with a speed of 8.0 m/s. What is the maximum height the projectile reaches?

eduard

Answer:

h = 3.3 m (Look at the explanation below, please)

Explanation:

This question has to do with kinetic and potential energy. At the beginning (time of launch), there is no potential energy- we assume it starts from the ground. There, is, however, kinetic energy

Kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2}$ m $v^{2}$

Plug in the numbers = $\frac{1}{2}$ (4.0)( $8^{2}$ )

Solve = 2(64) = 128 J

Now, since we know that the mechanical energy of a system always remains constant in the absence of outside forces (there is no outside force here), we can deduce that the kinetic energy at the bottom is equal to the potential energy at the top. Look at the diagram I have attached.

Potential energy = mgh = (4.0)(9.8)(h) = 39.2(h)

Kinetic energy = Potential Energy

128 J = 39.2h

h = 3.26 m

h= 3.3 m (because of significant figures)

In a large centrifuge used for training pilots and astronauts, a small chamber is fixed at the end of a rigid arm that rotates i

RSB [31]

a) The length of the arm of the centrifuge is 10.9 m

b) The angular acceleration is $2.7 rad/s^2$

Explanation:

In a uniform circular motion, the centripetal acceleration is given by

$a_c=\omega^2 r$

where:

$\omega$ is the angular speed of the circular motion

r is the radius of the circle

For the centrifuge in this problem, we have:

$\omega=1.7 rad/s$ is the angular speed

The centripetal acceleration is 3.2 times the acceleration due to gravity ( $g=9.8 m/s^2$ ), so:

$a_c=3.2 g = 3.2(9.8)=31.4 m/s^2$

Therefore, we can re-arrange the previous equation to find r, the radius of the circle (which corresponds to the length of the arm of the centrifuge):

$r=\frac{a_c}{\omega^2}=\frac{31.4}{1.7^2}=10.9 m$

In the second part of the exercise, the centrifuge speeds up from an initial angular speed of 0 to a final angular speed of 1.7 rad/s. The total acceleration experienced at the final moment is

$a=4.4 g$
