ElenaW [278]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The answer to this is

6600 Hz to 19,800 Hz

Explanation:

The shape of the human ear is analogous to a closed ended pipe hence

we have λ = 4L or wavelength = 4 * length of the child ear

The frequency  c/λ  where c = speed of sound = 343 m/s

hence the child's audible range is multiples of 343/(4*0.13) =6600Hz

or 13200 Hz or 19,800 Hz

The generally quoted range of human hearing is 20 Hz to 20 kHz

Explain how an object moving at a constant speed can have a nonzero acceleration
SOVA2 [1]
Its very simple if a body is moving in circle the magnitude of its velocity remain constant  but its direction changes because velocity is directed towards tangent and at every point in a cirlce its direction will be different (along tangent) so velocity is not uniform .As acceleration is the rate  change of velocity  so it will be non zero because velocity is changing due to its direction.

When might a scientist use a model?
Savatey [412]
For the writer, scientific models are paradigms of set of patterns that is assumed to happen in a particular situation or circumstance which is why it was created and modeled, to explain a certain phenomenon. Take for instance the biogeochemical cycle model –water cycle. The water cycle model involves the different process which was observed happen as the current cycle has been experimented and predicted to happen again with the same process. <span>

</span>Models can represent things that are too small to see. <span> Scientists rely on models to represent concepts and processes in physical science because models can represent things that are too small to see. In fact, they are actually used to give a better perspective of what is occurring on these hidden to the naked eye matters –which may include atoms, cells, and entities unseen and latent. It gives scientists the ideas and structure, restructure, integrate and ponder on new hypothesis on these matters.  <span> </span></span>
