Answer:

A. The wavelengths of the new sound waves are longer

Explanation:

This is the Doppler effect which can be best illustraded  for the case of a siren of an ambulance approaching us having a greater frequency and getting lower in frequency and deeper as the ambulance passes  us.

Since the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency it follows the wavelengths are longer when the frequency decreases lowering its pitch and getting deeper.

A sample contains 36 g of a radioactive isotope. How much radioactive isotope remains in the sample after 3 half-lives?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

<u>Option "C":</u> "4.5 g"

Explanation:

N0 = 36 g, Let half-life is T.

t = 3 T, n is number of half lives = t / T = 3

<u>By using the decay law of radioactivity</u>

N / N0 = (1 / 2)^n

where

"N0" be the "initial amount"

"N" be the "amount left"

"n" be the "number of half-lives"

N / 36 = (1/2)^3

N / 36 = 1 / 8

N = 36 / 8 = 4.5 g

Describe the difference between global knowledge and personal ideas.
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Global knowledge is information that is widely accepted and been proven as the truth. It is information that may not necessarily have a source because it is common knowledge and not easily attributed to a certain source. Personal ideas are original to the author and may not be widely accepted. It is important to give credit to others by citing their work to acknowledge that this is not your own findings but rather someone else's. It is plagiarism to use someone else's work as your own without giving credit to their work. -W0lf93
