Answer:
a. Speed = 342.5 meters per seconds.
b. Wavelength = 2.0 meters
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Distance = 100m
Time = 292 milliseconds to seconds = 292/1000 = 0.292 seconds
Frequency = 171 Hz
a. To find the speed of sound in air;
Speed = distance/time
Speed = 100/0.292
Speed = 342.5 m/s
b. To find the wavelength;
Wavelength = speed/frequency
Wavelength = 342.5/171
Wavelength = 2.0 m
Answer:
A. The upward pressure gradient force is balanced by gravity.
Explanation:
A. is correct because the pressure difference is actually generated by gravity. As in the following formula for the pressure at different points:

where
are the pressure at 2 points, ρ is the density of the fluid, g is the gravitational constant, and h is the height difference.
B is incorrect because friction in air is too small to make an effect.
C is incorrect because the Coriolis force is horizontal, not vertical.
D is incorrect because a difference of 500 hPa = 50000 Pa, this is half of the atmospheric pressure.
E is incorrect because temperature cannot generate force.
- Static friction: when an object is not moving
- Kinetic friction: if an object is moving
- Rolling friction: when there is rolling (wheel,..)
Answer:
The reading in the scale is going to be the same, or if it experiences some change it would be minimum. The reason is because the truck will act as a big closed cage, therefore, when the pigeons fly, the air they move with their wings in order to keep flying, exerts the same force on the closed cage, that if they were standing on the ground.
If the truck however, allows the air flow, the weight might change, because under this scenario, the air flowing could represent less force exerted on the balance.
