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

How would the seasons change if the earth were tilted at 90 degrees instead of 23.5?
PIT_PIT [208]
<span>The 23.5 degree tilt is responsible for the seasons. If the earth had no tilt there would not be seasons. If the earth was tilted by 90 degrees the seasonal changes would be at the most extreme. The Earth's pole would point directly at the sun at a point on the track around the sun. As the Earth revolves around the Sun the pole would alternate twice each year between pointing directly at the sun and being perpendicular to the sun. 

I hope this helps you!

A 2.00-kg ball is moving at 2.20 m/s toward the right. It collides elastically with a 4.00-kg ball that is initially at rest. 1)
loris [4]
Elastic collision is when kinetic energy before = kinetic energy after

Ek= 1/2mv^2

total before
Ek=1/2(2)(2.2^2) = 4.84 J

total after
Ek= 1/2(2+4)(v^2) = 3v^2

Before = after
4.84=3v^2 | divide by 3
121/75 = v^2 | square root both sides
v=1.27 m/s

A student pushes a laptop cart down the hallway by applying 20 Newtons force. The student pushes it 10 meters and
noname [10]

Answer:

None.

Explanation:

  • By definition, work is a process that it happens when an applied force

        causes an object to change its position, i.e. to have a displacement.

        Since the laptop cart is at rest while he stops at the water fountain, no  

       net work done is on the laptop cart.
