sergij07 [2.7K]3 years ago
7 0
The <span>flow of how a cold pack works on a sprained ankle is based on the second law of thermodynamics which states that energy will flow from a higher to a lower temperature. So your body heat will flow to the cold pack in which you will feel the coldness of the pack.</span>

Elephants can communicate over distances as far as 6 km by using very low-frequency sound waves. What is the wavelength of a 10
harkovskaia [24]

The characteristics of the sound waves allow to find the result for the wavelength is:

         λ = 34.29 m

The sound wave is a longitudinal traveling wave, where the speed of the wave depends on the air temperature.

         v = v_o \sqrt{1 + \frac{T}{273} }  

where v₀ is the speed of sound for T = 0ºc v₀ = 331 m / s.

indicate that the temperature is T = 20ºC, let's find the speed of the traveling wave.

        v = 331 \sqrt{1 + \frac{20}{273} }  

        v = 342.9 m / s

The speed of sound is related to wavelength and frequency.

       v = λ f

        λ = \frac{v}{f}

Let's calculate

        \lambda = \frac{342.29}{10}  

        λ  = 34.29 m

In conclusion using the characteristics of sound waves we can find the result for the wavelength is:

          λ = 34.29 m

A 0.0382-kg bullet is fired horizontally into a 3.78-kg wooden block attached to one end of a massless, horizontal spring (k = 8
wel

Answer:

280.87 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

Consider the motion of the bullet-block combination after collision

m = mass of the bullet = 0.0382 kg

M = mass of wooden block = 3.78 kg

V = velocity of the bullet-block combination after collision

k = spring constant of the spring = 833 N m⁻¹

A = Amplitude of oscillation = 0.190 m

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy of  bullet-block combination after collision = Spring potential energy gained due to compression of spring

(0.5)(m + M)V^{2} = (0.5)kA^{2}

(0.0382 + 3.78)V^{2} = (833)(0.190)^{2}

V = 2.81 ms⁻¹

v_{o} = initial velocity of the bullet before striking the block

Using conservation of momentum for the collision between bullet and block

m v_{o} = (m + M) V

(0.0382) v_{o} = (0.0382 + 3.78) (2.81)

v_{o} = 280.87 ms⁻¹
