Answer:

v=3200m/s

Explanation:

The velocity (speed) of a sound wave (any wave in fact) is related to its frequency and wavelength by the equation v=\lambda f. This is easy to remember since it's a distance divided by a time because frequency is the inverse of the period.

Since for sound traveling through the given solid object we have that f=400Hz and \lambda=8m, the speed of sound will be:

v=\lambda f=(8m)(400Hz)=3200m/s

A hiker leaves her camp and walks 3.5 km in a direction of 55° south of west to the lake. after a short rest at the lake, she hi
3241004551 [841]

Let's choose east as positive x-direction and south as positive y-direction. We can resolve the two displacement along these two axes:

- Displacement 1 (3.5 km, 55^{\circ} south of west

d_{1x}=-(3.5 km)( cos 55^{\circ})=-2.01 km

d_{1y}=(3.5 km)( sin 55^{\circ})=2.87 km

- Displacement 2 (2.7 km, 16^{\circ} east of south

d_{2x}=(2.7 km)( sin 16^{\circ})=0.74 km

d_{1y}=(2.7 km)( cos 16^{\circ})=2.60 km

So, the total components on the two directions are

d_x = -2.01 km+0.74 km=-1.27 km

d_y=2.87 km+2.60 km=5.47 km

And the magnitude of the hiker's resultant displacement is

d=\sqrt{(1.27 km)^2+(5.47 km)^2}=5.6 km

What are the forces that act on the ball pushed on the floor​?<br><br>Plss answer
vaieri [72.5K]

Explanation:

The ball, for example, will feel gravity pulling it downward and the ground pushing it upward in the direction it is rolling. (Add this if the ball is rolling on the floor.) Friction is the force that causes the ball to slow down because it acts in the opposite direction that it is moving.

Please help me with this i need your help

Answer:
Speed of the wave is 7.87 m/s.
Explanation:
It is given that, tapping the surface of a pan
of water generates 17.5 waves per second
We know that the number of waves per
second is called the frequency of a wave.
So, f= 17.5 HZ
Wavelength of each wave,
A = 45 cm = 0.45 m
Speed of the wave is given by:
175 × 0.45
V= 7.87 m/s
So, the speed of the wave is 7.87 m/s
Hence, this is the required solution.

An engine draws energy from a hot reservoir with a temperature of 1250 K and exhausts energy into a cold reservoir with a temper
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The power output of this engine is  P =  17.5 W

The  the maximum (Carnot) efficiency is  \eta_c  = 0.7424

The  actual efficiency of this engine is  \eta _a  = 0.46

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The temperature of the hot reservoir is  T_h = 1250 \ K

      The temperature of the cold reservoir  is  T_c  =  322 \ K

     The energy absorbed from the hot reservoir is E_h  = 1.37 *10^{5} \ J

       The energy exhausts into  cold reservoir is  E_c  = 7.4 *10^{4} J

The power output is mathematically represented as

      P  =  \frac{W}{t}

Where t is the time taken which we will assume to be 1 hour =  3600 s  

W is the workdone which is mathematically represented as

      W =  E_h  -E_c

substituting values

       W = 63000 J

So

    P =  \frac{63000}{3600}

    P =  17.5 W

The Carnot efficiency is mathematically represented as

          \eta_c  =  1 - \frac{T_c}{T_h}

         \eta_c  =  1 - \frac{322}{1250}

         \eta_c  = 0.7424

The actual efficiency is mathematically represented as

        \eta _a  =   \frac{W}{E_h}

substituting values

         \eta _a  =  \frac{63000}{1.37*10^{5}}

         \eta _a  = 0.46

a high speed train travels with an average speed of 250 km/h. the train travels for 2 hrs. how far does the train travel
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 500 km </h3>

Explanation:

The distance covered by an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

<h3>distance = average velocity × time</h3>

From the question

average speed = 250 km/h

time = 2 hrs

We have

distance = 250 × 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>500 km</h3>

Hope this helps you
