Answer: Option A, speed of light.

Explanation: As the object reaches the speed of light, the length of the object will contract, this is called the Lorentz contraction. Also, the object will experience the time slower than if it were at rest, so an observer and the object will experience the time in a different way, and because of this the "rate of time passage" changes, so we already discarded option B, C, and D.

Now, the speed of the light is invariant, it is the same in any system and is a "physical constant", so it would not change, then the correct option is A.

An organ pipe open at both ends has two successive harmonics with frequencies of 220 Hz and 240 Hz. What is the length of the pi

Harman [31]

Answer:

The length is $l = 8.6 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The frequencies of the two successive harmonics are $f_1 = 220 \ Hz$ , $f_2 = 240 \ Hz$

The speed of sound in the air is $v_s = 343 \ m/s$

Generally the frequency of a given harmonic is mathematically represented as

$f_n = \frac{n v }{2l}$

Here n defines the position of the harmonics

Now since the position of both harmonic is not know but we know that they successive then we can represented them mathematically as

$220 = \frac{n v}{2l}$

and

$240 = \frac{(n+1) v}{2l}$

$\frac{(n + 1 ) v}{2l} - \frac{n v}{2l} = 240-220$

=> $\frac{v}{2l} = 20$

=> $l = 8.6 \ m$

Which declares two related integer vectors named personname and personage each with 50 elements?

Serjik [45]

Both vectors should be declared to have the same number of elements.

vector<int> personName(50); vector<int> personAge(50)

Vector is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. It is typically represented by an arrow whose direction is the same as that of the quantity and whose length is proportional to the quantity's magnitude. Although a vector has magnitude and direction, it does not have position like a point.

How will the amount of power change if less work is done in more time?

yKpoI14uk [10]

The amount of power change if less work is done in more time"then the amount of power will decrease".

<u>Option: B</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The rate of performing any work or activity by transferring amount of energy per unit time is understood as power. The unit of power is watt

$Power = \frac{Work}{Time}$

Here this equation showcase that power is directly proportional to the work but dependent upon time as time is inversely proportional to the power i.e as time increases power decreases and vice versa.

This can be understood from an instance, on moving a load up a flight of stairs, the similar amount of work is done, no matter how heavy but when the work is done in a shorter period of time more power is required.
