Answer:

t = 0.67635 s

n = 6764

Explanation:

Given:

- The velocity of sound in water v:

                                    v = √(B/rho)

Where, B: Bulk Modulus = 2.28*10^9 Pa

            rho: Density of salt water = 1043 kg/m^3

- The wale sends out a high frequency f = 10 kHz

- The distance between two wales s = 1.0 km

Find:

- Time taken for the sound to travel between whales t?

- How many wavelengths can fit between the two whales n?

Solution:

- The time taken for the sound to travel from one whale to another can be determined from:

                               t = s / v

                               t = s / √(B/rho)

                               t = s*√(rho/B)

- Plug in the values:

                               t = 1000*√(1043/2.28*10^9)

                              t = 0.67635 s

- The wavelength λ of the sound emitted can be calculated by the following formula:

                               λ = √(B/rho) / f

                               λ = √(2.28*10^9/1043) / 10^4

                               λ =  0.14785 m

- The number of wavelengths n that could fit in the distance s is:

                               n*λ = s

                               n = 1000 / 0.14785

                              n = 6764

You are creating waves in a rope by shaking your hand back and forth. Without changing the distance your hand moves, you begin t
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

<u>Amplitude - remains the same</u>

<u>Frequency - increases</u>

<u>Period - decreases</u>

<u>Velocity - remains the same.</u>

<u />

Explanation:

The amplitude of the wave remains the same since you are not changing the distance your hand moves and the amplitude of the wave depends on how much distance your hand covers while moving.

The frequency of your wave increases since now you are moving your hand more number of times in the same period i.e. your hand is moving faster in one second. So, the frequency of your wave increases.

The period is the time taken by the wave to travel a certain distance. Since your hand is now moving faster, the wave will travel faster and will take less time to cover the same distance hence, we can say that its period will decrease.

The velocity of a wave depends on the medium in which it is travelling. Your wave was previously travelling in air and the new wave is also travelling in the same medium so the velocity of the wave remains unchanged.

What are three physical properties of gases
NikAS [45]

Answer:   Gases have three characteristic properties: (1) they are easy to compress, (2) they expand to fill their containers, and (3) they occupy far more space than the liquids or solids from which they form. An internal combustion engine provides a good example of the ease with which gases can be compressed.

Mama L [17]

Answer: (a) power output = 3.85×10²⁶W

(b). There is no relative change in power as it is independent from frequency

(c). 590 W/m²

Explanation:

given Radius between earth and sun to be = 1.50 × 10¹¹m

Intensity of the radiation from the sun measured on earth to be = 1360 W/m²

Frequency = 60 MHz

(a). surface area A of the sun on earth is = 4πR²

substituting value of R;

A = 4π(.50 × 10¹¹)² = 2.863 10²³×m²

A = 2.863 10²³×m²

now to get the power output of the sun we have;

<em>P </em>sun = <em>I </em><em>sun-earth </em><em>A </em><em>sun-earth</em>

where A = 2.863 10²³×m², and <em>I </em> is 1360 W/m²

<em>P </em>sun =  2.863 10²³ × 1360

<em>P </em>sun = 3.85×10²⁶W

(c). surface area A of the sun on mars is = 4πR²

now we substitute value of 2.28 ×10¹¹ for R sun-mars, we have

A sun-mars = 4π(2.28× 10¹¹)²

A sun-mars = 6.53 × 10²³m²

now to calculate the intensity of the sun;

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars = </em><em>P </em>sun / A sun-mars

where <em>P </em>sun = 3.85×10²⁶W and A sun-mars = 6.53 × 10²³m²

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars =  </em>3.85×10²⁶W / 6.53 × 10²³m²

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars = </em>589.6 ≈ 590 W/m²

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars = </em>590 W/m²

Answer:

The maximum volume is 1417.87 inch^3

Explanation:

<u>Optimization Using Derivatives</u>

We have a 24x30 inch piece of metal and we need to make a rectangular box by cutting a square from each corner of the piece and bending up the sides. The width of the piece is 24 inches and its length is 30 inches

When we cut a square of each corner of side x, the base of the box (after bending up the sides) will be (24-2x) and (30-2x), width and length respectively. The volume of the box is

V=(24-2x)(30-2x)x

Operating

V=4x^3-108x^2+720x

To find the maximum value of V, we compute the first derivative and equate it to zero

V'=12x^2-216x+720=0

Simplifying by 12

x^2-18x+60=0

Completing squares

x^2-18x+81-81+60=0

(x-9)^2=21

We have two values for x

x=9+\sqrt{21}=13.58\ inch

x=9-\sqrt{21}=4.42\ inch

The first value is not feasible because it will produce a negative width (24-2(13.58))=-6.16

We'll keep only the solution

x=4.42\ inch

The width is

w=(24-2(4.42))=15.16\ inch

The length is

l=(30-2(4.42))=21.16\ inch

And the height

x=4.42\ inch

The maximum volume is

V=(15.16)(21.16)(4.42)=1417.87\ inch^3
