Answer:

13.72 m and 0.01372 m respectively

Explanation:

Wavelength: This can be defined as the distance covered in one complete oscillation. The S.I unit of wavelength is meter (m).

The formula for the speed of a wave is given as

v = λf ............................. Equation 1

Where v = speed of the sound wave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency of the sound wave.

make λ the subject of the equation,

λ = v/f ......................... Equation 2

For the lowest frequency,

Given: f = 25 Hz, v = 343 m/s.

Substitute into equation 2

λ = 343/25

λ = 13.72 m.

For the highest frequency,

Given: f = 25 kHz = 25000 Hz, v = 343 m/s

Substitute into equation 2

λ = 343/25000

λ = 0.01372 m.

The wavelength of sound for 25 Hz and 25 kHz = 13.72 m and 0.01372 m respectively

A bolt of lightning discharges 9.7 C in 8.9 x 10^-5 s. What is the average current during the discharge?
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: 1.089\times 10^5\ A

Explanation:

Given

Charge discharged Q=9.7\C

time taken t=8.9\times 10^{-5}\ s

Current is given as rate of change of discharge i.e.

\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{Q}{t}\\\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{9.7}{8.9\times 10^{-5}}\\\\\Rightarrow I=1.089\times 10^5\ A

Therefore, the average current is 1.089\times 10^5\ A

The speed of an electric locomotive is 90kmh .express this speed in m/s with method​
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

24.3 m/s

Explanation:

1 kmh = 0.27 m/s, that makes a conversion ratio of 0.27/1kmh

\frac{90 kmh}{1} x \frac{0.27 m/s}{1 kmh}

The "kmh" n the top and bottom cancel out. And  then you just multiply the top 90 x 0.27 and the bottom 1 x 1 to get

\frac{24.3 m/s}{1}

and since its over 1 its just 24.3 m/s

How can i find the acceleration?(rope and grinder have no weight) *** sorry for my english
Finger [1]
The main formula to be used here is

                       Force = (mass) x (acceleration).

We'll get to work in just a second.  But first, I must confess to you that I see
two things happening here, and I only know how to handle one of them.  So
my answer will be incomplete, but I believe it will be more reliable than the
first answer that was previously offered here.

On the <u>right</u> side ... where the 2 kg and the 3 kg are hanging over the same
pulley, those weights are not balanced, so the 3 kg will pull the 2kg down, with
some acceleration.  I don't know what to do with that, because . . .

At the <em>same time</em>, both of those will be pulled <u>up</u> by the 10 kg on the other side
of the upper pulley.

I think I can handle the 10 kg, and work out the acceleration that IT has.

Let's look at only the forces on the 10 kg:

-- The force of gravity is pulling it down, with the whatever the weight of 10 kg is.

-- At the same time, the rope is pulling it UP, with whatever the weight of 5 kg is ...
that's the weight of the two smaller blocks on the other end of the rope. 

So, the net force on the 10 kg is the weight of (10 - 5) = 5 kg, downward.

The weight of 5 kg is (mass) x (gravity) = (5 x 9.8) = 49 newtons.

The acceleration of 10 kg, with 49 newtons of force on it, is

     Acceleration = (force) / (mass) = 49/10 = <em>4.9 meters per second²</em>

A 1200 kg car accelerates from 13 m/s to 17 m/s. find the change in momentum of the car.
mixas84 [53]
P=4800kgm/s
As
p=mΔv
where p is momentum, m is mass and v is velocity
Given values is
m =1200kg
Δv= 17m/s-13m/s=4m/s
Now
p=mΔv
p=(1200kg)*(4m/s)
p=4800kgm/s
