Two sound waves are emitted from identical sources at the same time. They each travel a distance of 10 m, but one wave reaches t

he destination faster than the other. What can you conclude about the two waves?

Answer:

Faster one has a lower frequency and higher wavelength.

Explanation:

The waves have properties such as frequency and wavelength. If the distance they travel is the same but one wave is faster than the other one, the faster wave must have a lower frequency and higher wavelength as it can be seen in this graph from Encyclopedia Britannica.

I hope this answer helps.

Answer:

<em>Varying frequency</em> between both waves accounts for difference in speed.

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is dependent on four major factors:

  1. wavelength
  2. frequency
  3. medium, and
  4. temperature 

Assuming equal temperature and medium of travel of these sound waves, and given that the wavelength (that is distance of travel) is equal, the only varying factor would be their frequency.

Wave speed is calculated by multiplying the wavelength times the frequency

⇒ Speed = λ * <em>f</em>

lbvjy [14]

Answer: 502 Joules

Explanation:

To calculate the mass of water, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of water = 1 g/mL

Volume of water = 40.0 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{40.0mL}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(1g/mL\times 40.0mL)=40.0g

When metal is dipped in water, the amount of heat released by lead will be equal to the amount of heat absorbed by water.

Heat_{\text{absorbed}}=Heat_{\text{released}}

The equation used to calculate heat released or absorbed follows:

q=m\times c\times \Delta T

q = heat absorbed by water

m = mass of water = 40.0 g

T_{final} = final temperature of water = 20.0°C

T_{initial = initial temperature of water = 17.0°C

c = specific heat of water= 4.186 J/g°C

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

q=40.0\times 4.186\times (20.0-17.0)]

q=502J

Hence, the joules of heat were re-leased by the lead is 502

A children's liquid cold medicine has a specific gravity of 1.23. If a child is to take 1.5 tsp in a dose, what is the mass (in
julia-pushkina [17]

Assume 1 tsp is approximately can hold 5 mL liquid.

Given the dose of medicine = 1.5 tsp

Converting 1.5 tsp to mL:

1.5 tsp * \frac{5 mL}{1 tsp} = 7.5 mL

Given the specific gravity of the medicine = 1.23

That means density of the medicine with respect to water will be 1.23

As the density of water is 1 g/mL

We can take density of the medicine to be 1.23 g/mL

Calculating the mass of medicine in grams:

7.5 mL * \frac{1.23 g}{mL} =9.225 g

9.225 g medicine is present in one dose.

Answer: Isotope Oxygen 18 will remain the same before and after the reaction because the amount of neutrons are the same in a isotope

Explanation:

Isotopes 18-17 and 16 are the most stable in earth. Keep in mind that a Isotope is an atom that has equal amount of protons and electrons but neutrons ( as you can see in the imagine below) . That is why, an isotope like oxygen 18 will remain the same in a chemical reaction, because there is only a electron transfer when doing a new molecule.
