Some good estimates about the human body can be made if it is assumed that we are made mostly of water. The mass of a water mole

cule is 2.99 * 10^-26 kg. If the mass of a person is 62 kg, estimate the number of water molecules in that person.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of water molecule m=2.99\times 10^{-26}\ kg

mass of person M=62\ kg

It is given that body is mostly made up of water

suppose n water molecules constitutes 62 kg

so n\times m=M

n=\frac{62}{2.99\times 10^{-26}}

n=20.73\times 10^{26}\ kg

How far can a sound wave travel in 90 seconds when the ambient air temperature is 10 C?
Ksju [112]

Answer:

s = 30330.7 m = 30.33 km

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the speed of sound at the given temperature. For this purpose we use the following formula:

v = v₀√[T/273 k]

where,

v = speed of sound at given temperature = ?

v₀ = speed of sound at 0°C = 331 m/s

T = Given Temperature = 10°C + 273 = 283 k

Therefore,

v = (331 m/s)√[283 k/273 k]

v = 337 m/s

Now, we use the following formula to calculate the distance traveled  by sound:

s = vt

where,

s = distance traveled = ?

t = time taken = 90 s

Therefore,

s = (337 m/s)(90 s)

<u>s = 30330.7 m = 30.33 km</u>

For the following types of electromagnetic radiation, how do the wavelength, frequency, and photon energy change as one goes fro
KIM [24]

Answer:

Wavelength, frequency and the photon energy changes as the one goes across the ranges of the electro-magnetic radiations.

Explanation:

Electro-magnetic radiations may be defined as the form of energy that is radiated or given by the electro-magnetic radiations. The visible light that we can see is the one of the electro-magnetic radiations. Other forms are the radio waves, gamma waves, UV rays, infrared radiations, etc.

The wavelength of the radiations decreases as we go from a. radio waves -- b. infrared radiation -- c. visible light -- d. ultraviolet radiation -- e. gamma radiation.

The frequency of the radiations increases when we move from a. radio waves -- b. infrared radiation -- c. visible light -- d. ultraviolet radiation -- e. gamma radiation.

The photon energy of the radiations increases when we move from a. radio waves -- b. infrared radiation -- c. visible light -- d. ultraviolet radiation -- e. gamma radiation.

Through which medium will sound have slowest speed? Group of answer choices
Vinvika [58]

Answer: Air

Explanation: Of the three mediums (gas, liquid, and solid) sound waves travel the slowest through gases, faster through liquids, and fastest through solids.  Air and hydrogen have nearly the same elastic properties, but the density of hydrogen is less than that of air. Sound thus travels faster (about 4 times as fast) in hydrogen than in air.
