A person is listening to a tone of 500 Hz sitting from a distance of 450 m from the source of the sound. What is the time interv

Answer:

ΔX = λ = 0.68 m

Explanation:

Wave speed is related to wavelength and frequency by the equation

          v = λ f

where the speed of sound is 340 m / s

          λ = v / f

          λ = 340/500

          λ = 0.68 m

this is the wavelength, it is the minimum distance for which the wave epitates its movement, which is equal to the distance between two consecutive compressions of the sound

          ΔX = λ = 0.68 m

As 390 g of hot milk cools in a mug it transfers 30 000 j of heat to the environment. whats is the temperature change of the mil
Fed [463]
You have to use the specific heat equation. 

Q = cmΔT where Q is the energy, c is specific heat, m is mass, and ΔT is change in temp.

So we can substitute our variables into the equation.

30000J = (390g)(3.9J*g/C)ΔT

Solving for ΔT, we get:

30000J/[(390g)*(3.9J*g/C) = ΔT

ΔT = 19.72386588C

I'm assuming the temperature is C, since it was not specified.

Hope this helps!

A 720 g softball is traveling at 15.0 m/s when caught. If the force of the glove on the ball is 520 N, what is the time it takes
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The time it takes the ball to stop is 0.021 s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the softball, m = 720 g = 0.72 kg

velocity of the ball, v = 15.0 m/s

applied force, F = 520 N

Apply Newton's second law of motion, to determine the time it takes the ball to stop;

F = ma = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{0.72 \ \times \ 15}{520} \\\\t = 0.021 \ s \\

Therefore, the time it takes the ball to stop is 0.021 s.

A Carnot engine operates with an efficiency of 26.0% when the temperature of its cold reservoir is 281 K. Assuming that the temp
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The temperature of cold reservoir should be 246.818 K for efficiency of 35%

Explanation:

In first case we have given efficiency of Carnot engine = 26 % = 0.26

Temperature of cold reservoir T_L=281K

We know that efficiency of Carnot engine is given by

\eta =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}

0.26 =1-\frac{281}{T_H}

T_H=379.72K

For second Carnot engine efficiency is given as 35% = 0.35

And temperature of hot reservoir is same so T_H=379.72K

So 0.35=1-\frac{T_L}{379.72}

T_L=246.818K

So the temperature of cold reservoir should be 246.818 K for efficiency of 35%

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

3- kinetic energy was transferred from the water to the ice

Explanation:

the kinetic energy in this situation is the molecules vibrating so the molecules in the ice absorb it and make the molecules not vibrate so it gets colder
