Time taken to reach a person located 5m from the source is 0.2s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Frequency, f = 10Hz

Wavelength, λ = 2.5m

Distance, d = 5m

Time, t = ?

We know:

velocity = f X λ

v = 10 X 2.5

v = 25 m/s

We know:

Distance = speed X time

On substituting the value we get:

5 = 25 X t

t = 0.2 seconds

Therefore, time taken to reach a person located 5m from the source is 0.2s

The wave takes 0.2 seconds to reach a person located 5 m from the source.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the frequency be 'f' and the wavelength be 'λ'

The frequency and wavelength relation is given by,

f = C/ λ

Here C is the speed of the wave.

10 = C/ 2.5

C= 10 x 2.5

C = 25 m/s

The relation between speed, time and distance is given by,

Speed = distance/ time

Here the distance we take will be 5m as we should find the time to reach the person 5m away from the source.

25 = 5 / t

t = 5/25

t = 0.2 seconds

The wave need 0.2 seconds to reach a person 5m away from the source.

X:y=5:3 and x+y=56 work out the value of x-y
Vladimir79 [104]

x - y = 14

given the ratio x : y = 5 : 3

then let x = 5x and y = 3x, hence equation can be expressed as

5x + 3x = 56

8x = 56 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 7

Hence x = 5 × 7 = 35 and y = 3 × 7 = 21

Thus x - y = 35 - 21 = 14

Divide use partial quotients 36 divided by 540
Blizzard [7]

Answer and explanation;

= 1/15 is the answer get when 36 is divided by 540 .

We can use the partial quotients to divide 540 by 36 then we get the reciprocal of the answer;

540 ÷ 36

We can take 360 ÷ 36 = 10

Then the remainder is ; 540 -360 = 180

But ; 180 ÷36 = 5

Then we get the sum of the quotients which is 10 +5 = 15

Thus; 540 ÷ 36 = 15

However; the question was 36 ÷ 540 , so we get the reciprocal of 15;

= 36 ÷ 540 = 1/15

What is the volume of the rectangular prism? A prism has a length of 8 inches, width of 2 inches, and height of 12 and one-half
xenn [34]

Answer:

200 in3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a rectangular prism you multiply each dimension to each other. 8*2 is 16, and 16*12.5 is 200. This means the volume is 200 in3.

Hope this helps :)
