Answer:

(a) λ=77×10⁻⁶m

(b)Yes its enough to examine entire eye,

(c)λ=16.65μm.

Explanation:

The ultrasonic sound are used to detect problems in human body by using device consisting of transmitter and detector .

The speed of sound in human tissue is 1540m/s.

The wavelength of sound is 20MHz.

(a) let the velocity of sound in human tissue is v = 1540m/s.

                v=fλ

           λ= \frac{v}{f} =\frac{1540}{20MHz} = 77×10⁻⁶m

             λ=77×10⁻⁶m

(b)  we can scan effectively upto the depth of  about 500λ

                   500λ=500× (77×10⁻⁶)= 3.85cm

            Yes its enough to examine entire eye,

(c) In air the  velocity of sound is 331m/s.

              λ=\frac{v}{f}  = \frac{331 m/s}{20Mhz}  = 16.65μm

            λ=16.65μm.

A 15 kg box is sliding down an incline of 35 degrees. The incline has a coefficient of friction of 0.25. If the box starts at re
valina [46]

The box has 3 forces acting on it:

• its own weight (magnitude <em>w</em>, pointing downward)

• the normal force of the incline on the box (mag. <em>n</em>, pointing upward perpendicular to the incline)

• friction (mag. <em>f</em>, opposing the box's slide down the incline and parallel to the incline)

Decompose each force into components acting parallel or perpendicular to the incline. (Consult the attached free body diagram.) The normal and friction forces are ready to be used, so that just leaves the weight. If we take the direction in which the box is sliding to be the positive parallel direction, then by Newton's second law, we have

• net parallel force:

∑ <em>F</em> = -<em>f</em> + <em>w</em> sin(35°) = <em>m a</em>

• net perpendicular force:

∑<em> F</em> = <em>n</em> - <em>w</em> cos(35°) = 0

Solve the net perpendicular force equation for the normal force:

<em>n</em> = <em>w</em> cos(35°)

<em>n</em> = (15 kg) (9.8 m/s²) cos(35°)

<em>n</em> ≈ 120 N

Solve for the mag. of friction:

<em>f</em> = <em>µ</em> <em>n</em>

<em>f</em> = 0.25 (120 N)

<em>f</em> ≈ 30 N

Solve the net parallel force equation for the acceleration:

-30 N + (15 kg) (9.8 m/s²) sin(35°) = (15 kg) <em>a</em>

<em>a</em> ≈ (54.3157 N) / (15 kg)

<em>a</em> ≈ 3.6 m/s²

Now solve for the block's speed <em>v</em> given that it starts at rest, with <em>v</em>₀ = 0, and slides down the incline a distance of ∆<em>x</em> = 3 m:

<em>v</em>² - <em>v</em>₀² = 2 <em>a</em> ∆<em>x</em>

<em>v</em>² = 2 (3.6 m/s²) (3 m)

<em>v</em> = √(21.7263 m²/s²)

<em>v</em> ≈ 4.7 m/s

When determining whether a chemical reaction has taken place, you observe and look for several indicators. Which would be consid
Inga [223]
The answer is B.

A cannot be the answer is melting is a physical change. No chemical reaction took place.

B is the answer as it is a EXOTHERMIC REACTION so heat will be given off.

C cannot be the answer as dissolving is basically atoms becoming ions, not a chemical reaction whereby a reactant reacts with another reactant to form a product.

D cannot be the answer. Same reason as for why A is not the answer.

Cheers.

What is the source of all electromagnetic waves?
kherson [118]

Answer:

Accelerating charges.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves produced by the vibration of both electrical and magnetic fields.

This interaction produces an energy source that does not require any medium to propagate.

To produce electromagnetic waves, electric and magnetic fields must be vibrating.

An electric charge produced when vibrating under voltage will produce electromagnetic waves. This is the same for all sources of these waves.

The sun produces electromagnetic waves. A lot of human activities also does this.

When the distance between two stars decreases by one-third, the force between them
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

the force will increase by a factor 2.25

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the two stars is given by:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two stars

r is the distance between the stars

If the distance is decreased by one-third, it means that the new distance is 2/3 of the previous distance

r'=\frac{2}{3}r

So the new force will be

F'=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{(\frac{2}{3}r)^2}=\frac{9}{4} G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}=2.25 F

So, the force will be 2.25 times the previous value.
