Your GPS shows that your friend’s house is 10.0 km away. But there is a big hill between your houses and you don’t want to bike

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The value is $c = 8 \ km$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance of friends house from your point is $a = 10 \ km$

The distance of your friends street from your street is $b = 6 \ km \ in the \ direction \ towards \ the \ north$

The diagram illustrating this question is shown on the first uploaded image

From the diagram we can apply by Pythagoras theorem as follows

$a^2 = b^2 + c^2$

=> $c = \sqrt{^2 - b^2}$

=> $c = \sqrt{ 10^2 - 6^2}$

=> $c = 8 \ km$

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

1.04 s

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

t = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (v/c)^2)

here

v = 0.5c

t = 1.20 -s

So,

1.20 = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (0.5/c)^2)

1.20 = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (0.5)^2)

1.20 = t' ÷ √0.75

1.20 = t' ÷ 0.866

t' = 0.866 × 1.20

= 1.04 s

The above formula should be applied

The Balmer series in hydrogen atom produces only infrared emission. O True O False

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

As we know that, the Balmer series gives the n values as,

$n_{i}=2$ .

$[tex]n_{f}=3,4,5,.....\infty$ .

Now the value of wavelength can be calculated as,

$\frac{1}{\lambda}=R(\frac{1}{n_{i} }-\frac{1}{n_{f} } )z^{2}$ .

Here, $R=109677 cm^{-1}$ .

And $n_{f}=3$ .

Now,

$\frac{1}{\lambda}=109677 cm^{-1}(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3})$ .

Therefore,

$\lambda=\frac{6}{109677} cm\\\lambda=547\times 10^{-9} m\\ \lambda=547 nm$

Therefore, the wavelength of Balmer series lies in visible region which is 547 nm.

The overall length of a piccolo is 32.0 cm. The resonating air column vibrates as in a pipe that is open at both ends. (a) Find

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

lowest frequency = 535.93 Hz

distance between adjacent anti nodes is 4.25 cm

Explanation:

given data

length L = 32 cm = 0.32 m

to find out

frequency and distance between adjacent anti nodes

solution

we consider here speed of sound through air at room temperature 20 degree is approximately v = 343 m/s

lowest frequency will be = $\frac{v}{2L}$ ..............1

put here value in equation 1

lowest frequency will be = $\frac{343}{2(0.32)}$

lowest frequency = 535.93 Hz

and

we have given highest frequency f = 4000Hz

wavelength = $\frac{v}{f}$ ..............2

put here value

wavelength = $\frac{343}{4000}$

wavelength = 0.08575 m

so distance = $\frac{wavelength}{2}$ ..............3

distance = $\frac{0.08575}{2}$

distance = 0.0425 m

so distance between adjacent anti nodes is 4.25 cm
