Sound waves are a longitudinal wave that have a speed of about 340 m/s when traveling through room temperature air. What is the

wavelength of a sound wave that has a frequency of 6,191 Hz?

The wavelength of the wave is 0.055 m

Explanation:

The relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the wave equation:

$v=f\lambda$

where

v is the speed

f is the frequency

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

For the sound wave in this problem we have

v = 340 m/s is the speed

f = 6,191 Hz is the frequency

Solving for $\lambda$ , we find the wavelength:

$\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{340}{6191}=0.055 m$

A NASA satellite has just observed an asteroid that is on a collision course with the Earth. The asteroid has an estimated mass,

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

v = 7934.2 m/s

Explanation:

Here the total energy of the Asteroid and the Earth system will remains conserved

So we will have

$-\frac{GMm}{r} + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 = -\frac{GMm}{R} + \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we know that

$v_0 = 660 m/s$

$M = 5.98 \times 10^{24} kg$

$m = 5 \times 10^9 kg$

$r = 4 \times 10^9 m$

$R = 6.37 \times 10^6 m$

now from above formula

$GMm(\frac{1}{R} - \frac{1}{r}) + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we have

$2GM(\frac{1}{R} - \frac{1}{r}) + v_0^2 = v^2$

now plug in all data

$2(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(5.98 \times 10^{24})(\frac{1}{6.37 \times 10^6} - \frac{1}{4 \times 10^9}) + (660)^2 = v^2$

$v = 7934.2 m/s$

two-point charges are 10.0 cm apart and have charges of 2.0 uc and -2.0uc respectively What is the magnitude of the electrical f

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Electric field due to two charges is given as

$E = 1.44 \times 10^7 N/C$

Explanation:

As we know that two charges are opposite in nature

So the electric field at the mid point of two charges will add together

so the net field is given as

$E = 2\frac{kq}{r^2}$

now we have

$q = 2\times 10^{-6} C$

$r = 5 cm = 0.05 m$

now we have

$E = 2\frac{(9\times 10^9)(2\times 10^{-6})}{0.05^2}$

$E = 1.44 \times 10^7 N/C$

A police officer is parked by the side of the road, when a speeding car travelling at 50 mi/hrpasses. The police car immediately

Blababa [14]

Answer:

a) time taken to catch up with speeding car is 12.25 secs

b) the police car will travel 273.8 m to catch up with the speeding car

Explanation:

Given that;

speed of car $V_{c}$ = 50 mi/hr = 22.352 m/s

acceleration of police car = 10 mi/hr = 4.47 m/s²

$V_{f}$ = 70 mi/hr = 31.29 m/s

Now time taken to reach maximum speed is t₁

so

$V_{f}$ = $V_{i}$ + at₁

we substitute

31.29 = 0 + 4.47t₁

t₁ = 31.29 / 4.47

t₁ = 7 sec

now

d₁ = 0 + 1/2 × at₁²

d₁ = 0 + 1/2 × 0 + 4.47×(7)²

d₁ = 109.5 m

so distance travelled by the speeding car in time t₁ will be

$d_{c}$ = $V_{c}$ × t₁

we substitute

$d_{c}$ = 22.352 × 7

$d_{c}$ = 156.46 m

now distance between polive car and speeding car

Δd = $d_{c}$ - d₁

Δd = 156.46 - 109.5

Δd = 46.96 m

time taken to cover Δd will be

t₂ = Δd / ( $V_{f}$ - $V_{c}$ )

t₂ = 46.96 / ( 31.29 - 22.352 )

t₂ = 46.96 / 8.938

t₂ = 5.25 sec

distance travelled by the police in time t₂ will be

d₂ = $V_{f}$ × t₂

d₂ = 31.29 × 5.25

d₂ = 164.3 m

a) How long will it take before the officer catches up to the speeding car;

time taken to catch up with speeding car;

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 7 + 5.25

t = 12.25 secs

Therefore, time taken to catch up with speeding car is 12.25 secs

b) how far will it have travelled in order to do so;

distance = d₁ + d₂

distance = 109.5 + 164.3

distance = 273.8 m

Therefore, the police car will travel 273.8 m to catch up with the speeding car
