if waves on the lake have a frequency of 3 hertz and a wavelength of 4 meters,what is the speed of the waves?

You have to use the equation v=λf
v is the velocity of the wave
λ is the wave length of the wave (how far the wave goes in one cycle)
f is the frequency of the wave (how long one cycle is)

V=4m×3Hz
v=12m/s

Hz stands for s⁻¹ which is why the final units is m/s

I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

The electronegativity of nitrogen (N) is 3.0, while the electronegativity of hydrogen (H) is 2.1. Knowing this, consider how the

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

NH3 is polar due to the bonds between nitrogen and hydrogen which have different electronegativity and due also to its asymmetrical shape.

Explanation:

NH3 is polar as there are 3 dipoles in the ammonia molecule that do not balance each other out.

Considering the N-H bond which is polar because N with an electronegativy of 3.0, is more electronegative than H, with an electronegativity of 2.1. The is overall asymmetrical shape of NH3

means that the dipoles remains unbalanced and do cancel out each other making the NH3 polar.

A tank contains 200 gallons of water in which 300 grams of salt is dissolved. A brine solution containing 0.4 kilograms of salt

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

<h3>Therefore, after long period of time 80kg of salt will remain in tank</h3>

Explanation:

given amount of salt at time t is A(t)

initial amount of salt =300 gm =0.3kg

=>A(0)=0.3

rate of salt inflow =5*0.4= 2 kg/min

rate of salt out flow =5*A/(200)=A/40

rate of change of salt at time t , dA/dt= rate of salt inflow- ratew of salt outflow

$dA/dt=2-(A/40)\\\\dA=2dt-(A/40)dt\\\\dA+(A/40)dt=2dt$

integrating factor

$=e^{\int\limits (1/40) \, dt}$

integrating factor $=e^{(1/40)t}$

multiply on both sides by $=e^{(1/40)t}$

$dAe^{(1/40)t}+(A/40)e^{(1/40)t} dt =2e^{(1/40)t}t\\\\(Ae^{(1/40)t})=2e^{(1/40)t}t$

integrate on both sides

$\int\limits(Ae^{(1/40)t})=\int\limits2e^{(1/40)t}dt\\\\(Ae^{(1/40)t})=2*40e^{(1/40)t}+C\\\\A=80+(C/e^{(1/40)t})\\\\A(0)=0.3\\\\0.3=80+(C/e^{(1/40)t}^*^0)\\\\0.3=80+(C/1)\\\\C=0.3-80\\\\C=-79.7\\\\A(t)=80-(79.7/e^{(1/40)t})$
