Comets are made out of rock and ice, looking like dirty snowballs in space. The ice alone, is not only made of water, but also carbon dioxide, methane, and other things. As a comet approaches the sun, it melts and leaves behind bits of rock to orbit the sun. Soon earth will collide with its orbit and meteoroids and meteors form.

I really hope this helps!

A sound wave has a frequency of 645 Hz in air
rodikova [14]

Answer:

-14.2^{\circ}C

Explanation:

First of all, we can find the speed of the sound wave, which is given by:

v=f \lambda

where

f = 645 Hz is the frequency

\lambda=0.5 m is the wavelength

Substituting,

v=(645 Hz)(0.5 m)=322.5 m/s

Now we can find the temperature of the air by using the following relationship:

v = 331 m/s + 0.6 T

where T is the temperature in Celsius degrees. Since we know v = 322.5 m/s, we can re-arrange the formula to find the temperature:

T=\frac{v-331 m/s}{0.6}=\frac{322.5 m/s-331 m/s}{0.6}=-14.2^{\circ}C
