Answer:

2.49 * 10^(-4) m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Frequency, f = 4.257 MHz = 4.257 * 10^6 Hz

Speed of sound in the body, v = 1.06 km/ = 1060 m/s

The speed of a wave is given as the product of its wavelength and frequency:

v = λf

Where λ = wavelength

This implies that:

λ = v/f

λ = (1060) / (4.257 * 10^6)

λ = 2.49 * 10^(-4) m

The wavelength of the sound in the body is 2.49 * 10^(-4) m.

If a 0.15 kg ball falls and has a KE of 20 J just before striking the ground, from what height did it fall. A. 1.36m B. 3m C. 13
RUDIKE [14]
According to the conservation of mechanical energy, the kinetic energy just before the ball strikes the ground is equal to the potential energy just before it fell. 

Therefore, we can say KE = PE
We know that PE = m·g·h

Which means KE = m·g·h

We can solve for h:

h = KE / m·g
   = 20 / (0.15 · 9.8) 
   = 13.6m

The correct answer is: the ball has fallen from a height of 13.6m.

41. Planet Ayanna has a radius of 6.2 X 10%m and orbits the star named Dayli in 98 days. A new neighboring planet Clayton J-21 h
romanna [79]

Answer:

138.3 days

Explanation:

Given that a Planet Ayanna has a radius of 6.2 X 10%m and orbits the star named Dayli in 98 days. A new neighboring planet Clayton J-21 has been discovered and has a radius of 7.8 X 10 meters.

The period of time for Clayton J-21 to orbit Dayli can be calculated by using Kepler law.

T^2 is proportional to r^3

That is,

T^2/r^3 = constant

98^2 / 62^3 = T^2 / 78^3

Make T^2 the subject of formula.

T^2 = 98^2 / 62^3 × 78^3

T^2 = 19123.2

T = sqrt ( 19123.2 )

T = 138.2867 days

Therefore, the period of time for Clayton J-21 to orbit Dayli is 138.3 days approximately.

Can anyone tell me what's the base quantities for Force, Pressure and Charge?​
mr Goodwill [35]

Force, pressure, and charge are all what are called <em>derived units</em>. They come from algebraic combinations of <em>base units</em>, measures of things like length, time, temperature, mass, and current. <em>Speed, </em>for instance, is a derived unit, since it's a combination of length and time in the form [speed] = [length] / [time] (miles per hour, meters per second, etc.)

Force is defined with Newton's equation F = ma, where m is an object's mass and a is its acceleration. It's unit is kg·m/s², which scientists have called a <em>Newton</em>. (Example: They used <em>9 Newtons</em> of force)

Pressure is force applied over an area, defined by the equation P = F/A. We can derive its from Newtons to get a unit of N/m², a unit scientists call the <em>Pascal</em>. (Example: Applying <em>100 Pascals </em>of pressure)

Finally, charge is given by the equation Q = It, where I is the current flowing through an object and t is how long that current flows through. It has a unit of A·s (ampere-seconds), but scientist call this unit a Coulomb. (Example: 20 <em>Coulombs</em> of charge)
