f=\frac{v}{\lambda} where f is frequency, v is speed and \lambda is wavelength. So f=20/0.5=40. The unit is 1/s or Hz.

Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) = 20 / 0.5 = 40 per second = 40 Hz.

When a current flows in an aluminum wire of diameter 2.91 mm 2.91 mm , the drift speed of the conduction electrons is 0.000191 m
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Number of electrons are flowing per second is 2.42 x 10¹⁹

Explanation:

The electric current flows through a wire is given by the relation :

I=envA   ....(1)

Here I is current, e is electronic charge, v is drift velocity of electrons and A is the Area of the wire.

But electric current is also define as rate of electrons passing through junction times their charge, i.e. ,

I=Ne      ....(2)

Here N is the rate of electrons passing through junction.

From equation (1) and (2).

eN = envA

N=nvA

But area of wire, A=\pi \frac{d^{2} }{4}

Here d is diameter of wire.

So, N = nv\pi \frac{d^{2} }{4}

Substitute 2.91 x 10⁻³ m for d, 0.000191 m/s for v and 6 x 10²⁸ m⁻³ for n in the above equation.

N = 6\times10^{28}\times 0.000191\times\pi \frac{(2.91\times10^{-3} )^{2} }{4}

N = 2.42 x 10¹⁹ s⁻¹

Rachel collected data on the speed of sound waves passing through different media.
Helga [31]

The conclusion is, medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media.

<h3>Effect of density on speed of sound</h3>

Sound wave is mechanical wave that requires material medium for its propagation.

A high dense medium, is a medium with closely packed molecules. Since sound wave requires material medium for its propagation, it will travel faster in a high dense medium than a less dense medium.

Thus, the speed of sound increases as the density of the medium increases.

<h3>Speed of sound in the different media</h3>

The conclusion that can be made from the speed of sound in the different media is "Medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media".

Puck 1 (1 kg) travels with velocity 20 m/s to the right when it collides with puck 2 (1 kg) which is initially at rest. After th
Burka [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass of Puck 1, m = 1 kg

Mass of Puck 2, M = 1 kg

Initial velocity of Puck 1, u = 20 m/s

Initial velocity of Puck 2, U = 0 m/s

Final velocity of Puck 1, v = 5 m/s

Since we are told that momentum is conserved, we apply the principle of conservation of momentum:

Total initial momentum of the system = Total final momentum of the system

mu + MU = mv + MV

(1 * 20) + (1 * 0) = (1 * 5) + (1 * V)

20 = 5 + V

V = 20 - 5 = 15 m/s

Puck 2 moves with a velocity of 15 m/s
