Answer:

0.54mm

Explanation:

Given the following :

Wavelength (λ) of Soundwave in air = 0.12mm

Velocity of sound wave (v) = 340m/s

Calculate the frequency (f) :

v = fλ

Wavelength to metres

1000mm = 1 m

0.12mm = (0.12/1000)m

= 0.00012m

v = fλ

340 = F * 0.00012

f = 340 / 0.00012

f = 2833333.3 Hz

Wavelength of Soundwave in the patient:

Velocity of sound wave through body tissue = 1540m/s

Therefore,

Using v = fλ

λ = v / f

λ = 1540 / 2833333.3

λ = 0.0005435m

λ = (0.0005435 * 1000)mm

λ = 0.5435mm = 0.54mm

Check all of the following statements that describe velocity.
Nata [24]

Answer:

Choices A, B, and C are correct.

Explanation:

Let us look at each of the choices one by one:

A. It is a vector

Yes. Velocity is a vector, or it's a speed with direction.

B. It is the change in displacement divided by the change in time.

Yes. The velocity can be written as

v = \dfrac{\Delta\bold{x}}{\Delta t}

where \bold{x} is the displacement—a vector quantity.

C. It can be measured in meters per second.

Yes. The units of velocity are m/s, but also with a unit vector indicating the direction.

D. It is the slope of the acceleration vs. time graph.

Nope. The velocity is the slope of displacement vs. time graph.

Hence, only choices A, B, and C are correct.

Electromagnetic waves differ from other types of waves because they are (2 points)
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

b. able to travel through a vacuum.

Explanation:

The most distinguishing factor of an electromagnetic waves is that they are able to travel through a vacuum.

These waves do not require materials in a medium for propagation.

  • Electromagnetic waves are formed by the propagation of the electric and magnetic fields.
  • They vibrate at an angle of 90° .
  • They are unlike like mechanical waves that requires that requires materials in medium for their propagation.

Tim has a weight of 500N, which his half of his father's
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

3.75m on the left end

Explanation:

Given data

Tim's  weight = 500N= 0.5kN

Tim's fathers weight= 500*2= 1000N= 1kN

Tim and the fathers weight = 500+1000= 1500N= 1.5kN

Tim's uncle weight= 1.5kN

Length of seesaw= 5m

let the distance  Tim's uncle sits be x

We know that summation of clockwise moment equals the summation of anticlockwise moment

Taking moment about the center of the seesaw

1.5*2.5= 1*x

3.75= 1x

Divide boths sides by 1

x= 3.75/1

x= 3.75m

Hence Tim's uncle will sit 3.75m on the left end
