<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

40 light bulbs

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

The total resistance of components or bulbs in series is given as the sum of resistance of all the components.

Thus; if there are bulbs in series each with a resistance of 1.5 Ω, the the total resistance will be; 1.5nΩ

From the ohms law;

V = IR , where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistor.

Thus; R = V/i

         R = 120/2

            = 60 Ω

But, there are n bulbs each with 1.5 Ω; thus there are;

n = 60/1.5

<u>  = 40 Bulbs </u>

You hear a sound in the distance. Suddenly the sound gets deeper, decreasing in pitch. Which can you assume about the sound wave
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

A. The wavelengths of the new sound waves are longer

Explanation:

This is the Doppler effect which can be best illustraded  for the case of a siren of an ambulance approaching us having a greater frequency and getting lower in frequency and deeper as the ambulance passes  us.

Since the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency it follows the wavelengths are longer when the frequency decreases lowering its pitch and getting deeper.

In the context of energy transfers with hot and cold reservoirs, the sign convention is that _______________.
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

B. QC > 0; QH < 0

Explanation:

Given that there are two reservoir of energy.

Sign convention for heat and work :

1.If the heat is adding to the system then it is taken as positive and if heat is going out from the system then it is taken as negative.

2. If the work is done on the system then it is taken as negative and if the work is done by the system then it is taken as positive.

From hot reservoir heat is going out that is why it is taken as negative

Q_H

From cold reservoir heat is coming inside the reservoir that is why it is taken as positive

Q_C>0

That is why the answer will be

Q_H ,Q_C>0

A 50.0 Watt stereo emits sound waves isotropically at a wavelength of 0.700 meters. This stereo is stationary, but a person in a
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

a) f' = 432 Hz

b) I = 8.12*10^-4 W/m^2

Explanation:

a) To calculate the frequency of sound waves that car receives, you take into account the Doppler effect. In this case (observer moves away of the source) you have the following formula:

f'=f(\frac{v-v_o}{v+v_s})    (1)

where

f: frequency of the source = ?

v: speed of sound = 343 m/s

vo: speed of the observer = 40.0 m/s

vs: speed of the source = 0 m/s (stationary)

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

To calculate f' you first calculate the frequency of the sound wave, by using the following formula:

v=\lambda f\\\\

v: speed of sound

λ: wavelength = 0.700 m

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}=\frac{343m/s}{0.700m}=480Hz

Next, you replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

f'=(490Hz)(\frac{343m/s-40.0m/s}{343m/s})=432Hz

hence, the frequency perceived by the car is 432 Hz

b) To calculate the power of the sound wave, when the car is 70.0 maway from the speaker, you use the following formula:

I=\frac{P}{4\pi r^2}

P: power of the source = 50.0 W

r: distance to the source = 70.0 m

I=\frac{50.0 W}{4\pi(70.0m)^2}=8.12*10^{-4}\frac{W}{m^2}

hence, the intensity is 8.12*10^⁻4 W/m^2

NEED NOW ALMOST DUE
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Asteroids are objects made of clay and silicate  that orbit the sun but are too small to be considered planets.

Most asteroids revolve around the sun in an orbit between those of Mars and Jupiter.

They form a wide band called the Asteroid belt.

Other asteroids have orbits that cross Earth’s orbit. These asteroids are called  Earth-crossers.

Asteroids probably consist of matter that never agglomerated into a planet when the solar system was forming.

The comet’s core is composed of ice and dust.

Comets heat up and begin to change from a solid to a gas as they approach the sun.

The matter surrounding a comet’s core is vaporized and forms a very bright halo of ice or dust not sure, and an enormous cloud of dust or gasses not sure envelopes the head of the comet.
