Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

Flash flood refers to the sudden flood that occurs in a particular area due to the heavy and excessive amount of rainfall, often accompanied by thunderstorms within a few hours. It releases a huge amount of water due to the failure of natural levee as well dam. They are very devastating. During flash flood, the water exerts a massive force which can make vehicles float over water. The <u>six inches of water</u> that flows over an area has the capacity to lift the tyres of small vehicles and carry hem further away.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

Two cello strings, with the same tension and length, are played simultaneously. Their fundamental frequencies produce audible be
qwelly [4]

Explanation:

Let f₁ is the fundamental frequency, f_1=8\ Hz

Lower pitch frequency, f_2=220\ Hz

Fundamental frequency is, f_1=\dfrac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_1}}.....(1)

Lower frequency is, f_2=\dfrac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_2}}..............(2)

Dividing equation (1) and (2) as :

\dfrac{f_1}{f_2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\mu_2}{\mu_1}}

\dfrac{\mu_2}{\mu_1}=(\dfrac{f_1}{f_2})^2

\dfrac{\mu_2}{\mu_1}=(\dfrac{8}{220})^2

\dfrac{\mu_2}{\mu_1}=0.00132

So, the ratio of  linear mass density μ of the string with the higher pitch to that of the string with the lower pitch is 0.00132. Hence, this is the required solution.

The atmosphere of Mercury and Mars are very thin. What effect does the thin atmosphere have on the temperature on the surface of
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Very hot during the day and very cold at night.

Explanation:

Due to the thin atmosphere, they have very hot climate during the day time and very cold climate at night. This happens because they contain very low amounts of greenhouse gases. These gases retain the heat at night. The atmosphere also prevents excessive light and UV rays from entering. The thin  atmosphere leads to many asteroids and comets hitting the surface of the planet. On earth, these asteroids usually, burn up in the mesosphere layer of the atmosphere. These asteroid collisions cause massive fires. This in turn,  causes the temperature to increase during the day. During the night time, massive fires cannot burn due to the low temperature because of the lack of greenhouse gases.

A 20 liter cylinder of helium at a pressure of 150 atm and a temperature of 27ÁC is used to fill a balloon at 1.00 atm and 37ÁC.
djyliett [7]

<u>Answer</u>

D) 3100 Liters


<u>Explanation</u>

To get the volume if the balloon you need to use the combined equation of the low of gases.

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

(20×150)/(27+273) = (1×V₂)/(37+273)

3000/300 = V₂/310

10 = V₂/310

V₂ = 10 × 310

    = 3100 Liters
