When an object is heated it contracts. A. True B. False

Physics
1 answer:
Vadim26 [7]3 years ago

That statement is almost always false.  When anything is heated, it expands ... with one tiny exception.

When water is heated from 0°C to 4°C, it contracts.  I'm pretty sure that this is the only place in nature where this exception to the rule occurs.  If it didn't, then life on Earth wouldn't be possible !

In 1970, a rocket powered car called Blue Flame achieved a maximum speed of 1.00(10 km/h (278m/s).Suppose the magnitude of the c
sammy [17]

Answer:

Distance traveled during this acceleration will be 6950 m

Explanation:

Wear have given maximum speed tat will be equal to final speed of the car        v = 278 m/sec

Constant acceleration a=5.56m/sec^2

As the car starts initially starts from rest so initial velocity of the car u = 0 m/sec

From third equation of motion v^2=u^2+2as

Putting all values in equation

278^2=0^2+2\times 5.56\times s

s = 6950 m

So distance traveled during this acceleration will be 6950 m

If the frequency of sound is doubled, how will its speed change? how will its wavelength change?
eimsori [14]

From the given equation we can deduce what changes will occur if the frequency of the sound is doubled

V= f (λ)

Speed = frequency. Wavelength  

When the frequency is doubled, speed will not change. Because speed depends on factors like temperature, air pressure, density of the gas. Since all these factors are unchanged thus speed will remain unchanged

Frequency is the number of waves produced per second. Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional .Thus, if the frequency is doubled the wavelength would be halved.
