Answer:

1. greater

2. direct

3. smaller

4. inverse

Explanation:

The speed of sound in water is greater than in air; hence for the same frequency the sound wavelength in water is <u>greater </u>than in air (for the given frequency the wavelength is in the <u>direct </u>proportion with the speed of sound).

To "see" an object via the echolocation creature needs to use sound with the wavelength <u>smaller </u>than the size of an object viewed.

That means to "see" objects of the same size dolphin and bat need to use ultrasound of the same wavelength, hence dolphin needs to use higher frequency (for the given speed of sound the wavelength is in <u>inverse </u>proportion with the frequency).

Inertia ____.
OlgaM077 [116]
The correct answer is (c.) resists a change in motion of an object. Inertia basically resists any physical changes in an object in terms of its state. As stated in the Newton's first law of motion or also known as law of inertia, an object that is at rest will stay at rest and an object that is in motion will stay in motion. In short, an object will keep doing what it is already doing UNLESS net force is acted upon it,

Water is leaking out of an inverted conical tank at a rate of 1.5 cm3 /min at the same time that water is being pumped into the
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

a) Check Explanation

b) Check Explanation

c) The rate at which water is being pumped into the tank = 2.631 cm³/min

Explanation:

Let the rate of flow of water into the tank be k cm³/min

a) The image of the conical tank is presented in the attached image

Note, the radius and height of a cone are related through the similar triangles principle.

As shown in the attached image, it is evident that

r/h = 3/10

r = 3h/10 = 0.3 h

b) The quantities given in the problem.

- Shape of the tank, conical tank, Hence volume of the tank = πr²h/3

- total height of the tank, H = 10 cm

- Radius of the tank at the top, R = D/2 = 6/2 = 3 cm

- rate at which water is leaking from the tank = 1.5 cm³/min

- water is being pumped into the tank at constant rate of k cm³/min

- As at height of water, h = 2 cm, the rate of rise in water level = 1 cm/min

c) volume of the tank at any time = πr²h/3

Rate of change in the volume of water in the tank = (rate of flow into the tank) - (Rate of water flow out of the tank)

dV/dt = k - 1.5

V = πr²h/3 and r = 0.3 h, r² = 0.09 h²

V = 0.03πh³

dV/dt = (dV/dh) × (dh/dt)

dV/dh = 0.09π h²

dV/dt = 0.09π h² (dh/dt)

dV/dt = k - 1.5

0.09π h² (dh/dt) = k - 1.5

But at h = 2 cm, (dh/dt) = 1.0 cm/min

0.09π h² (dh/dt) = k - 1.5

0.09π 2² (1) = k - 1.5

k - 1.5 = 1.131

k = 1.5 + 1.131 = 2.631 cm³/min

3. A bottle of vitamin C contains 100 tablets and weighs 80 g. If the
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

a

0.57g

b

20.52

c

28.5

Explanation:

a

The bottle weighs 80g with tablets

If the bottle alone weighs 23g, the tablets weigh 57g

100 tablets weigh 57g, 1 tablet weighs 0.57g

b

0.57g is one tablet, so to achieve 36 tablets we must multiply by 36

0.57 multiplied by 36 is 20.52

c

To find 50 tablets we can use the same method we used before or a slightly faster method

100 tablets is 57g, so all we have to do is halve to find 50

57 divided by 2 is 28.5

He distance between two consecutive crests is 2.5 meters. Which characteristic of the wave does this distance represent? amplitu
kupik [55]

Frequency is measured in units of reciprocal time.
Period is measured in units of time.
Phase is a number without units that represents a fraction of a wave.

None of these is measured in meters, so none of them can be the answer.
It must be either amplitude or wavelength.

Amplitude is a quantity that's measured at one or two points in the same wave.
The question is talking about points on consecutive waves.

<em>Wavelength is</em> the only choice left.  That must be it.
