If you slosh the water back and forth in a bathtub at the correct frequency, the water rises first at one end and then at the ot

her. Suppose you can make a standing wave in a 157 cm long tub with a frequency of 0.3165 Hz. What is the velocity of the water wave? Answer in units of m/s.

Answer:

Velocity(v) = frequency(f) × wavelength

f = 0.3165

Wavelength = 2×length(L)

L = 157cm

Convert the length in centimetres to metre = 1.57m

v = 2×1.57 × 0.3165

v = 0.99m/s

Approx. 1m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of a wave is the product of its frequency and it's wavelength. The frequency is already known. The wavelength is the distance between two successive wave crests which is formed by sloshing water back and forth in the bath tub. Sloshing water to one end of the tub will produce a wave crest first at that end then the other completing a cycle. The wavelength will be twice the length of the bath tub as it is the distance that both crests are formed.

Wave crest is the highest point of a wave, and in this case is where the water rises to a high point in the bath tub

for example

1. drinking water at least after 1 hour beacuse if we immediately drink water just after meal it dilutes the HCL produced in our stomach which hinders the digestion process

2.picking up tomatoes for salads which contains oxalic acid

3.Cutting apples which contains malic acid with knife then after sometimes it will trun into brown due to oxidation of iron present in a apple.

Approximately what core temperature is required before hydrogen fusion can begin in a star?
valkas [14]

Answer:

The temperature required is near about 3 million kelvin

Explanation:

The brilliance of the star results from the nuclear reaction that take place in the core of the star and radiate a huge amount of thermal energy resulting from the fusion of hydrogen into helium.

For this reaction to take place, the temperature of the star's core must be near about 3 million kelvin.

The hydrogen atoms collide and starts and the energy from the collision results in the heating of the gas cloud. As the temperature comes to near about 1.5\times 10^{7 {\circ}C, the nuclear fusion reaction takes place in the core of the gas cloud.

The huge amount of thermal energy from the nuclear reaction gives the gas cloud a brilliance resulting in a protostar.

Use your knowledge of waves to explain why echoes occur. Use your explanation to devise a system to measure distances to objects
german

Explanation:

Echoes occur due to the reflection of sound from any obstacle, but not all the reflected sound waves lead to the phenomenon of echo. For the echo to be heard it actually depends upon the human perception as well, human ears can encounter the difference between the sound wave directly form the source and the reflected sound waves only if there is a minimum time gap of one-tenth of a second. For this time gap in the atmosphere at normal temperature and pressure the obstacle must be at least 7 meters away from the sound source.
