Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Given data is as follows.

Frequency = 0.0680 hertz = 0.0680 per second

Speed or velocity = 23.0 m/s

We can calculate the wavelength with the help of formula as follows.

$v = \lambda f$

$\lambda = \frac{v}{f}$

= $\frac{23.0 m/s}{0.0680 s^{-1}}$

= 338.23 meters

or, = 338 meters (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that wavelength is 338 meters (approx).

Using the Fundamental Equation of Wave, we have:

$v=\lambda f \\ \lambda= \frac{23}{0.068} \\ \boxed {\lambda \approx 338m}$

A distant large asteroid is detected that might pose a threat to Earth. If it were to continue moving in a straight line at cons

Vlada [557]

Answer:

The minimum speed required is 5.7395km/s.

Explanation:

To escape earth, the kinetic energy of the asteroid must be greater or equal to its gravitational potential energy:

$K.E\geq P.E$

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 \geq G\dfrac{Mm}{R}$

where $m$ is the mass of the asteroid, $R= 24,000,000\:m$ is its distance form earth's center, $M = 5.9*10^{24}kg$ is the mass of the earth, and $G = 6.7*10^{-11}m^3/kg\: s^2$ is the gravitational constant.

Solving for $v$ we get:

$v \geq \sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{R} }$

putting in numerical values gives

$v \geq \sqrt{\dfrac{2(6.7*10^{-11})(5.9*10^{24})}{(24,000,000)} }$

$\boxed{v\geq 5739.5m/s}$

in kilometers this is

$v\geq5.7395m/s.$

Hence, the minimum speed required is 5.7395km/s.

Conduction occurs more easily between solids and liquids. This is because the particles in gases are A) further apart and move f

valkas [14]

The answer is A. Further apart and move faster.

Conduction in general is the transfer of energy from molecule to molecule through DIRECT CONTACT. In solids and liquids, the molecules are closer to each other; more so in solids than liquids. This enables them to pass energy more quickly. Gas molecules on the other hand are further apart and move faster because they have space to move more freely. Energy does not easily pass on to the next molecule because of the distance between the molecules.

Ice has a specific heat of 2.093Jg ∘C, liquid water's specific heat is 4.184Jg ∘C, and steam has a specific heat of 1.864Jg ∘C.

Ivan

Answer:

The liquid phase will have the lowest temperature change upon heating.

Explanation:

Assuming no phase change due to heating, we know that the temperature change, is proportional to the mass heated, being the proportionality constant a quantity that depends on the material, and represents the resistance of the material to change the temperature, called specific heat.

So, if we assume that the mass is the same for the three phases, and that the amount of heat supplied is also the same,the phase with the highest specific heat will have the lowest temperature change.

So, the liquid phase will be the one that exhibits this behavior, as the specific heat of liquid water (4.184 J/gºC) is the highest among the three phases.
