If the wave passes the putrefying pile of a poached pickerel in 0.5 seconds, then the wave has a period of 0.5s. 

But we say that if F=1/T,
where F⇒frequency,
          T⇒period.

F=1/0.5
  = 2Hz

velocity of the wave = distance/time taken
                                = (20÷100)/0.5
                                = 0.2÷0.5
                                = 2/5

Now form the wave equation,
V=λF 
Where V ⇒ velocity of the wave.
             λ⇒wavelength of the wave.
       
So, λ=V/F

    λ = 2/5 ÷ 2
       =2/5 ×1/2
       = 2/10
       =0.2 m

The wavelength in cm is, 0.2×100 = 20 cm.

1 pts<br> How can two different nonmetals form a compound?
Molodets [167]

Explanation:

Covalent or molecular compounds form when elements share electrons in a covalent bond to form molecules. Molecular compounds are electrically neutral. Ionic compounds are (usually) formed when a metal reacts with a nonmetal (or a polyatomic ion). Covalent compounds are formed when two nonmetals react with each other.

Find the magnitude of acceleration (ft/s^2) a person experiences when he or she is texting and driving 58mph, hits a wall, and c
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

350 ft/s²

Explanation:

First, convert mph to ft/s.

58 mi/hr × (5280 ft/mi) × (1 hr / 3600 s) = 85.1 ft/s

Given:

v₀ = 85.1 ft/s

v = 0 ft/s

t = 0.24 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

a = (v − v₀) / t

a = (0 ft/s − 85.1 ft/s) / 0.24 s

a = -354 ft/s²

Rounded to two significant figures, the magnitude of the acceleration is 350 ft/s².

What is needed to create a magnetic field?
lara [203]

Explanation:

A magnetic field can be created by running electricity through a wire. All magnetic fields are created by moving charged particles. Even the magnet on your fridge is magnetic because it contains electrons that are constantly moving around inside
