Answer:

a=-3449.67\frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

The car is under an uniforly accelerated motion. So, we use the kinematic equations. We calculate the acceleration from the following equation:

v_f^2=v_0^2+2ax

We convert the initial speed to \frac{m}{s}

39\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=10.83\frac{m}{s}

The car stops, so its final speed is zero. Solving for a:

a=\frac{v_0^2}{2x}\\a=-\frac{(10.83\frac{m}{s})^2}{2(1.7*10^{-2}m)}\\a=-3449.67\frac{m}{s^2}

What is the wavelength of a 2.50-kilohertz sound
Alexxx [7]
The formula v=fλ can be used here.

326=2500*λ

Note the 2500 as 2.5kHz is 2.5 thousand Hz.

λ = 326/2500
= 0.1304m = 0.130m
