Answer: A)

Explanation: A wave with a constant speed is inversely proportional to the wavelength. So, the wavelength would decrease as the frequency of wave increases.

Answer:

A) because wave speed remains constant.

Explanation:

The wave speed of a wave in a medium depends on the nature of the medium.

For transverse waves in a string given by,

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{m}}, T = tension , m = linear density

For longitudinal waves in a solid,

v = \sqrt{\frac{ξ}{ρ}},  ξ = modulus of elasticity, ρ = density

Like wise for different media, different properties and parameters govern the speed of waves moving through them.

It is important to mind in v = fλ ,f or λ does not influence on speed of wave in a medium but shows how f and λ varies as a wave propagate in a medium(/media).

An object is placed 11.0 cm in front of a concave mirror whose focal length is 24.0 cm. The object is 2.60 cm tall. What is the
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Height of the image is 4.79 cm.

Explanation:

Object distance, u = -11 cm

Focal length of the mirror, f = -24 cm

Height of the object, h = 2.6 cm

We need to find the height of the image. Firstly, using the mirror's formula as :

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}

v is the image distance

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{u}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{(-24)}-\dfrac{1}{(-11)}

v = 20.30 cm

The magnification of the image is given by :

m=\dfrac{-v}{u}=\dfrac{h'}{h}, h' is the height of the image

\dfrac{-v}{u}\times h={h'}

\dfrac{-20.30}{-11}\times 2.6={h'}

h' = 4.79 cm

So, the height of the image is 4.79 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.

A proton traveling due west in a region that contains only a magnetic field experiences a vertically upward force (away from the
Vikki [24]

South

Explanation:

The magnetic force F on a point charge moving with a velocity v in the presence of a magnetic field B is given by

\vec{\textbf{F}} = q\vec{\textbf{v}}\textbf{×}\vec{\textbf{B}}

and according to the right-hand rule, an upward magnetic force on a proton moving westward is only possible if the magnetic field is directed southward.

If Mrs. Ramsey divides 5 pounds of flour equally into three bowls, what is the weight of flour in one bowl?
melamori03 [73]

Total flour was 5 pounds

Ramsey divided it in 3 bowls equally

it means now

3 bowls has = 5 pounds of flour

to get in 1 bowl we we can divide by 3 both sides

3/3 bowl has = 5/3 pounds of flour

1 bowl has = 5/3 pounds

A Shaolin monk of mass 60 kg is able to do a ‘finger stand’: he supports his whole weight on his two index fingers, giving him a
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

P = 1471500 [Pa]

Explanation:

We must remember that pressure is defined as the relationship between Force over the area.

P=F/A

where:

P = pressure [Pa] (units of pascals)

F = force [N] (units of Newtons)

A = area of contact = 4 [cm²]

But first we must convert from cm² to m²

A = 4[cm^{2}]*\frac{1^{2} m^{2} }{100^{2} cm^{2} }

A = 0.0004 [m²]

Also, the weight should be calculated as follows:

w = m*g

where:

m = mass = 60 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

Now replacing:

w = 60*9.81\\w = 588.6[N]

And the pressure:

P=588.6/0.0004\\P=1471500 [Pa]

Because 1 [Pa] = 1 [N/m²]
