Speed of sound in cold air < Speed of sound in Warm air < Speed of sound in hot molten lead < Speed of sound in water

Explanation:

Step 1:

Speed of sound in water varies from 1450 to 1498 meters per second

Speed of sound in Hot Molten lead is approximately 1210 meters per second

Speed of sound in warm air is approximately 338.89 meters per second

Speed of sound in cold air is approximately 293.33 meters per second

Step 2:

In warm air sound travels faster than that of sound travelling nature in cold air.

∴ Speed of sound in cold air < Speed of sound in Warm air < Speed of sound in hot molten lead < Speed of sound in water

Speed of sound in cold air the slowest while Speed of sound in water is the fastest mean.

A projectile is launched vertically at 100 m/s. If air resistance can be ignored, at what speed will it return to its initial le
eduard
<h2>Speed with which it return to its initial level is 100 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Initial velocity, u = 100 m/s  

Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²  

Final velocity, v = ?

Displacement, s = 0 m  

Substituting  

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 100² + 2 x -9.81 x 0

v² = 100²

v = ±100 m/s

+100 m/s is initial velocity and -100 m/s is final velocity.

Speed with which it return to its initial level is 100 m/s

Find the period of the leg of a man who is 1.83 m in height with a mass of 67 kg. The moment of inertia of a cylinder rotating a
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

2.2 s

Explanation:

Using the equation for the period of a physical pendulum, T = 2π√(I/mgh) where I = moment of inertia of leg about perpendicular axis at one point =  mL²/3 where m = mass of man = 67 kg and L = height of man = 1.83 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and h = distance of leg from center of gravity of man = L/2 (center of gravity of a cylinder)

So, T = 2π√(I/mgh)

T = 2π√(mL²/3 /mgL/2)

T = 2π√(2L/3g)

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

T = 2π√(2L/3g)

T = 2π√(2 × 1.83 m/(3 × 9.8 m/s² ))

T = 2π√(3.66 m/(29.4 m/s² ))

T = 2π√(0.1245 s² ))

T = 2π(0.353 s)

T = 2.22 s

T ≅ 2.2 s

So, the period of the man's leg is 2.2 s

If a wave has a frequency of 74 Hz and a speed of 444 m/s, what is the wave's wavelength?
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

6 m

Explanation:

velocity = wavelength x frequency

444 m/s = wavelength x 74 Hz

444 m/s / 74 Hz = wavelength

wavelength = 6m

A 11.0 kg satellite has a circular orbit with a period of 1.80 h and a radius of 7.50 × 106 m around a planet of unknown mass. I
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Expression for times period of a satellite can be given as follows

Time period T = 1.8 x 60 x 60

= 6480

T² = \frac{4\times \pi^2\times r^3}{GM} where T is time period , r is radius of orbit , G is gravitational constant and M is mass of the satellite.

6480² = 4 x 3.14² x 7.5³ x 10¹⁸ / GM

GM = 4 x 3.14² x 7.5³ x 10¹⁸ / 6480²

= 3.96 X 10¹⁴

Expression for acceleration due to gravity

g = GM / R² where R is radius of satellite

20 = 3.96 X 10¹⁴ / R²

R² = 3.96 X 10¹⁴ / 20

= 1.98 x 10¹³ m

R= 4.45 x 10⁶ m
