Answer:

1.21m

Explanation:

If two speakers are generating a frequency of 280Hz, the smallest separation distance between the speakers that will produce destructive interference at a listener standing in front of them is also known as the wavelength of the sound wave generated.

Using the expression;

Velocity v = frequency f × wavelength ¶

Given frequency = 280Hz, speed of sound v = 338m/s

Substituting this data's in the expression given to get the wavelength will give;

¶ = v/f

¶ = 338/280

¶ = 1.21m

The smallest separation between the speakers that will produce the interference is 1.21m

Cerebrum: is the largest part of the brain and is composed of right and left hemispheres. It performs higher functions like interpreting touch, vision and hearing, as well as speech, reasoning, emotions, learning, and fine control of movement.

Cerebellum: is located under the cerebrum. Its function is to coordinate muscle movements, maintain posture, and balance.

Brainstem: acts as a relay center connecting the cerebrum and cerebellum to the spinal cord. It performs many automatic functions such as breathing, heart rate, body temperature, wake and sleep cycles, digestion, sneezing, coughing, vomiting, and swallowing.

To be considered a source of water pollution, the source must include a chemical
forsale [732]

To be considered a source of water pollution, the source must include a chemical is false.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The water pollution may be caused either by chemicals or waste materials that doesn’t contain chemicals such as domestic wastes, organic compounds, heavy metals etc. The life on Earth mostly relies on water and air, and if these two gets polluted; the results will be dangerous.

Around 70% of the planet is covered with water and the present state of its purity is a matter of a serious thought. Looking over various pollutants, only chemical wastes are not responsible to pollute the water.

Instead, there is range of elements from plastic scraps to chemical wastes that comes from either the non-point sources or the point sources. There are organic waste materials, heavy metals, volcanic eruptions, Tsunamis, earthquakes, etc. are also responsible to contaminate water and affect the amphibians as well as humans.

A. A light wave moves through glass (n=1.5) at an angle of 25°. What angle will it have when it moves from the glass into air (n
torisob [31]

PART A)

By Snell's law we know that

n_1sin i = n_2 sin r

here we know that

n_1 = 1.5

i = 25 degree

n_2 = 1

now from above equation we have

1.5 sin25 = 1 sin r

r = 39.3 degree

so it will refract by angle 39.3 degree

PART B)

Here as we can see that image formed on the other side of lens

So it is a real and inverted image

Also we can see  that size of image is lesser than the size of object here

Here we can use concave mirror to form same type of real and inverted image

PART C)

As per the mirror formula we know that

\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{d_o} = \frac{1}{f}

\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{60} = \frac{1}{20}

d_i = 30 cm

so image will form at 30 cm from mirror

it is virtual image and smaller in size

A certain car can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 7.9 s. What is the car's average acceleration in mph/s?
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

<em>a = 7.6\ mph/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Motion With Constant Acceleration </u>

It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes uniformly in time.

The equation that describes the change of velocities is:

v_f=v_o+at

Where:

a   = acceleration

vo = initial speed

vf  = final speed

t    = time

Solving the equation [for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

The car accelerates from vo=0 to vf=60 mph in t=7.9 s, thus the acceleration is:

\displaystyle a=\frac{60 \ mph-0}{7.9}

a = 7.6\ mph/s
