Answer:

4.35×10⁻⁴ m

Explanation:

(a)

From wave,

v = λf...................... Equation 1

Where v = speed of sound in air, λ = wavelength of sound, f = frequency of sound.

Make λ the subject of formula in  equation 1

λ = v/f................. Equation 2

Given: v = 343, f = 3.45 MHz = 3.45×10⁶ Hz

Substitute into equation 2

λ = 343/(3.45×10⁶)

λ = 99.42×10⁻⁶ m

λ = 9.942×10⁻⁵ m

(b)

using,

v' = λ'f............... Equation 3

Where v' = speed of sound in tissue, λ' = wavelength of sound in tissue.

make λ' the subject of the equation

λ' = v'/f......................Equation 4

Given: v' = 1500 m/s, f = 3.45 MHz = 3.45×10⁶ Hz

Substitute into equation 4

λ' = 1500/(3.45×10⁶)

λ' = 434.783×10⁻⁶

λ' ≈ 4.35×10⁻⁴ m.

A basketball player jumps straight upward. After 0,625 s, she is 0.441 m above the ground. What is her initial velocity?????????
Lunna [17]

Answer:

v₀ = 3.77 [m/s]

Explanation:

This problem can be solved in a simple way by means of the following equation of kinematics.

y=y_{o}+v_{o}*t+\frac{1}{2}*g*t^{2}

where:

y - yo = 0.441 [m]

Vo = initial velocity [m/s]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

t = time = 0.625 [s]

0.441 = v_{o}*(0.625)-\frac{1}{2} *9.81*(0.625)^{2} \\2.357 = v_{o}*0.625\\v_{o}=3.77[m/s]

Note: The sign of the acceleration is negative since the movement of the basketball player is against of the gravity acceleration.

The differences between microwaves and infrared radiation are due to differences in their _____.
Ket [755]

Answer:

15 V

Explanation:

From the question,

For series connection: (i) Both resistor have a common current flowing through the (ii) The combined resistance = R1+R2

Rt = R1+R2.................. Equation 1

Given: R1 = 5 ohms, R2 = 7.5 ohms.

Rt = 5+7.5 = 12.5 ohms.

Applying Ohm's law,

V = IRt................... Equation 2

Where V = Voltage, I = current.

make I The subject of the equation

I = V/Rt.............. Equation 3

Given: V = 25 V, Rt = 12.5 ohms.

Substitute into equation 3

I = 25/12.5

I = 2 A.

Now,

Voltage drop across the 7.5 ohms resistor = R2×I

Voltage drop across the 7.5 ohms resistor = 7.5×2

Voltage drop across the 7.5 ohms resistor = 15 V

The vertical component of the magnetic induction in the Earth's magnetic field at Hobart is approximately 6×10-5T upward. What e
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnetic field B = 6 X 10⁻⁵ T.

Width of car = L (Let )

Velocity of car v  = 100 km/h

= 27.78 m /s

induced emf across the body ( width )  of the car

= BLv

= 6 X 10⁻⁵ L X 27.78

166.68 X 10⁻⁵ L

Induced electric field across the width

= emf induced / L

E =  166.68 X 10⁻⁵ N/C

We suppose breadth of a typical car = 1.5 m

potential difference induced

= 166.68 x 1.5 x 10⁻⁵

250 x 10⁻⁵ V

= 2.5 milli volt.

The side of the car which is positively charged depends on the direction in which car is moving , whether it is moving towards the north or south.

Whenever two apollo astronauts were on the surface of the moon, a third astronaut orbited the moon. assume the orbit to be circu
almond37 [142]
Missing question:
"Determine (a) the astronaut’s orbital speed v and (b) the period of the orbit"

Solution

part a) The center of the orbit of the third astronaut is located at the center of the moon. This means that the radius of the orbit is the sum of the Moon's radius r0 and the altitude (h=430 km=4.3 \cdot 10^5 m) of the orbit:
r= r_0 + h=1.7 \cdot 10^6 m + 4.3 \cdot 10^5 m=2.13 \cdot 10^6 m
This is a circular motion, where the centripetal acceleration is equal to the gravitational acceleration g at this altitude. The problem says that at this altitude, g=1.08 m/s^2. So we can write
g=a_c= \frac{v^2}{r}
where a_c is the centripetal acceleration and v is the speed of the astronaut. Re-arranging it we can find v:
v= \sqrt{g r}= \sqrt{(1.08 m/s^2)(2.13 \cdot 10^6 m)}=1517 m/s = 1.52 km/s

part b) The orbit has a circumference of 2 \pi r, and the astronaut is covering it at a speed equal to v. Therefore, the period of the orbit is
T= \frac{2 \pi r}{v} = \frac{2\pi (2.13 \cdot 10^6 m)}{1517 m/s} =8818 s = 2.45 h
So, the period of the orbit is 2.45 hours.
