According to the beliefs of the ancient Greeks the four elements composing everything in nature are; the air, earth, fire and water. 
For example according to the Greek philosopher Aristotle in 350 BC, the five basic elements that composed everything in nature is air, earth, fire, water and ether. Additionally according to Greek philosopher Empedocles in 450 BC, the four basic elements that composed everything in nature are the air, fire water and earth.

The ancient Greeks, in a theory that was suggested around 450 BC, believed that everything was from from four elements. These elements included earth, water, air and fire. Later, Aristotle supported this theory.

Therefore, the first option is correct.

A person is listening to a tone of 500 Hz sitting from a distance of 450 m from the source of the sound. What is the time interv
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

ΔX = λ = 0.68 m

Explanation:

Wave speed is related to wavelength and frequency by the equation

          v = λ f

where the speed of sound is 340 m / s

          λ = v / f

          λ = 340/500

          λ = 0.68 m

this is the wavelength, it is the minimum distance for which the wave epitates its movement, which is equal to the distance between two consecutive compressions of the sound

          ΔX = λ = 0.68 m

A train moves from rest to a speed of 25 m/s in 30.0 seconds. What is the acceleration?
fredd [130]

Answer:

a = 0.83\ m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Uniform Acceleration </u>

When an object changes its velocity at the same rate, the acceleration is constant.

The relation between the initial and final speeds is:

v_f=v_o+a.t

Where:

vf  = Final speed

vo = Initial speed

a   = Constant acceleration

t   = Elapsed time

It's known a train moves from rest (vo=0) to a speed of vf=25 m/s in t=30 seconds. It's required to calculate the acceleration.

Solving for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

Substituting:

\displaystyle a=\frac{25-0}{30}

\boxed{a = 0.83\ m/s^2}

A transverse wave is traveling through a canal. If the distance between two successive crests is 3.17 m and four crests of the w
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

a. 0.18Hz

b. 0.56m/s

Explanation:

From the question we can deduct the following parameters

The wavelength, λ is define as the distance between two successful crest or trough and from the question we conclude that wavelength is 3.17m.

Also the period of the wave T can be computed as

T=22.6/4

T=5.65secs.

a. To compute the frequency, recall that frequency, F=1/period.

Hence,

F=1/5.65

F=0.18Hz

b. Next we compute the wave speed.

Wave speed=frequency *wavelength

Wave speed =0.18*3.17

Wave speed =0.56m/s

Two loudspeakers emit sound waves along the x-axis. A listener in front of both speakers hears a maximum sound intensity when sp
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

frequency of the sound = f = 1,030.3 Hz

phase difference = Φ = 229.09°

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data:

Xini = 0.540m

Xfin = 0.870m

v = 340m/s

Step 2: frequency of the sound (f)

f = v / λ

λ = Xfin - Xini = 0.870 - 0.540 = 0.33

f = 340 / 0.33

f = 1,030.3 Hz

Step 3: phase difference

phase difference = Φ

Φ = (2π/λ)*(Xini - λ) = (2π/0.33)* (0.540-0.33) = 19.04*0.21 = 3.9984

Φ = 3.9984 rad * (360°/2π rad)

Φ = 229.09°

Hope this helps!
