Explanation :

It is given that :

speed of sound waves, $v=331\ m/s$

frequency of sound waves, $\nu=15\ Hz$

The relation between speed of sound wave and wavelength is

$v=\nu \lambda$

$\lambda=\dfrac{v}{\nu}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{331\ m/s}{15\ Hz}$

$\lambda=22.06\ m$

In a mercury barometer at atmospheric pressure, the height of the column of mercury in a glass tube is 760 mm. If another mercur

Archy [21]

Answer:

c. equal to 760 mm

Explanation:

We are told that another mercury barometer is used that has a tube of larger diameter. This means a larger area and the weight of the liquid in the tube will have increased since volume = area × height. Also, due to the larger area, the net upward force on the mercury will have also increased by the same amount because force = area × pressure. Therefore, as long as the pressure remains the same, the height of the mercury will also remain the same.

Thus the height of the mercury = 760 mm

-What can you say about the snowboarder’s kinetic energy as he moves?

Damm [24]

Answer:

His kinetic energy increases, potential energy decreases

The sum of kinetic and potential energy is a constant at any instant before he comes to rest.

Explanation:

Snowboarder is starting from a height and moving to the down direction. As he moves down his velocity increases, we know that kinetic energy is given by the expression $\frac{1}{2} mv^2$ , so as he moves his kinetic energy increases.

When the snowboarder is starting his potential energy is maximum(Potential energy = mgh), as he comes down his potential energy decreases.

Based on this we can conclude that the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy is a constant at any instant for a snowboarder before he comes to rest.

mgh+ $\frac{1}{2} mv^2$ = Constant
