Heat required to raise the temperature of mercury is given as

$Q = ms\Delta T$

here given that

m = 56 g

s = specific heat capacity of mercury = 0.140 J/g C

$\Deta T = 289 k$

now here we have

$Q = 56 * 0.140 * 289$

$Q = 2265.76 J$

so it required 2265.76 J of heat

A speaker is designed for wide dispersion for a high frequency sound. What should the diameter of the circular opening be in a s

Greeley [361]

Answer:

$a = 4.76 cm$

Explanation:

As we know by the law of diffraction through circular aperture

$a sin\theta = 1.22 \lambda$

here we know that

a = diameter of the aperture

$\theta$ = diffraction angle

$\lambda$ = wavelength

now we have

$a = \frac{1.22 \lambda}{sin\theta}$

Now in order to find the wavelength we know

$\lambda = \frac{c}{f}$

$\lambda = \frac{343}{9100}$

$\lambda = 0.0376 m$

now we have

$a = \frac{1.22(0.0376)}{sin75}$

$a = \frac{0.046}{0.966}$

$a = 0.0476 m= 4.76 cm$

A piece of wood is floating in a bathtub. A second piece of wood sits on top of the first piece, and does not touch the water. I

Fofino [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Water level remains unchanged

The first thing to realize is that the buoyancy force is the same as, or equal to the weight of the wood, this same force is also the same as or equal to the weight of the water displaced by the wood. In the two cases, the weight of the wood will be unaffected nonetheless, and thus the water level will remain the same.

Therefore, the answer is B, the water level remains unchanged.

A ray of light crosses a boundary between two transparent materials. The medium the ray enters has a larger optical density. Whi

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The wavelength of the light decreases as it enters into the medium with the greater optical density.

The frequency of the light remains constant as it transitions between materials.

Explanation:

- When a ray of light crosses a boundary between two different materials, it undergoes refraction: the ray changes direction, and it also changes speed, according to the relationship:

$v=\frac{c}{n}$

where v is the speed of the ray of light in the material, c is the speed of light in a vacuum, n is the index of refraction of the material, which is larger for a medium with larger optical density. So, from the equation, we see that the larger the optical density, the smaller the speed of the wave.

- The frequency of the light does not depend on the properties of the medium, so it remains unchanged: therefore the statement

The frequency of the light remains constant as it transitions between materials.

is correct.

- Moreover, the wavelength of the ray of light is related to the speed and the frequency by the equation

$\lambda=\frac{v}{f}$

where v is the speed and f the frequency. Since we have seen that v decreases and f remains constant, this means that the wavelength decreases as well, so the statement

The wavelength of the light decreases as it enters into the medium with the greater optical density.

is also correct.
