Answer:

The wave speed in SI units, is closest to - 2.7 m/s

Explanation:

given information:

y = 0.005 cos [π(38t - 14x)]

we know that the wave function is

y = A cos (kx ± ωt)

where

A = amplitude

w = angular velocity

k = wave number

thus,

y = 0.005 cos [(14πx - 38πt)]

ω = - 38π

k = 14π

to find the speed v, we use the equation below

v = ω/k

so,

v = - 38π/14π

= - 2.7 m/s

A bat emitts a sonar sound wave (343 m/s) that bounces off a mosquito 8.42 m away

Varvara68 [4.7K]

The time lapse between when the bat emits the sound and when it hears the echo is 0.05 s.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Velocity of sound (v) = 343 m/s

Distance (x) = 8.42 m

Time (t) =?

We can obtain obtained the time as illustrated below:

v = 2x / t

343 = 2 × 8.42 / t

343 = 16.84 / t

Cross multiply

343 × t = 16.84

Divide both side by 343

t = 16.84/343

t = 0.05 s

Thus, the time between when the bat emits the sound and when it hears the echo is 0.05 s.

<h3>How does a bat know how far away something is?</h3>

A bat emits a sound wave and carefully listens to the echoes that return to it. The returning information is processed by the bat's brain in the same way that we processed our shouting sound with a stopwatch and calculator. The bat's brain determines the distance of an object by measuring how long it takes for a noise to return.

An object is placed 5.00 cm beyond the focal point of a convex lens whose focal length is 10.0 cm. If the object height is 3.0 c

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

The height of the image is, h' = 6.0 cm

The image is erect.

Explanation:

Given data,

The object distance, u = -5 cm

The focal length of convex lens, f = 10 cm

The object height, h = 3 cm

The lens formula,

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}$

$\frac{1}{10}=\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{-5}$

$\frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{10}-\frac{1}{5}$

v = -10 cm

The magnification factor of lens

$m=\frac{-10}{-5}$

m = 2

$m=\frac{h'}{h}$

$h'=h\times m$

$h'=3\times 2$

h' = 6 cm

The height of the image is, h' = 6 cm

The image is erect.

Which statement is not a good practice when working inside a computer case?

lozanna [386]

Answer:

a. be sure to hold expansion cards by the edge connectors

Explanation:

Removal of loose jewelry is a good safety practice. Also not touching a microchip with a magnetized screwdriver is also a good practice.

But holding expansion cards by the edge connectors is not a good practice, so it is the odd one in the question. Therefore answer option a provides the correct and best answer to the question
