Answer:

wavelength = 4 m

Explanation:

For distance 6 and 8m and speed of sound in air = c.

The travel time form the various distances 6 and 8 are 6/c and 8/c respectively.

cos(wt1) + cos(wt2) = 0

for a shift in phase t1 = t - 6/c,

t2 = t - 8/c

substituting t1 and t2

cos(π - w(t - 8/c)) = cos(w(t - 6/c))

solving using trigonometry identities in radians.

we have,

π - 2πn = w(t - 8/c) - w(t - 6/c)

putting w = 2πf

π - 2πn = 2πf(t - 8/c) - 2πf(t - 6/c)

dividing both sides by π

1 - 2n = 2ft - 16(f/c) - 2ft + 12(f/c)

simplifying we have,

1 - 2n = -4(f/c)

solving for f we have,

f = c/4(2n - 1)

putting n=1 and c = 343m/s

f = (343/4)*(2(1) - 1)

f = 85.75 Hertz

wave lenght = c/f , where c= speed of sound in air , f= frequency

wave lenght = 343/85.75 = 4m

A motorcycle starts to move from rest. If the velocity of the motorcycle becomes 90 km/hr
bagirrra123 [75]

Explanation:

90 kmhr—1 x 1000/3600 = 25ms—1

U = 0 ms—1

V = 25ms—1

t = 10 s

a = ?

a = V - U/t

a = 25 - 0/10

a = 25/10

a = 2.5 ms—1

What is the frequency of the most intense radiation emitted by your body? assume a skin temperature of 95 ∘f?
navik [9.2K]

Answer:    
Wien's law:    
λ_peak = b/T    
Wien's constant: b = 2.8977685(51)Ă—10â’3 m•K    
T = (5/9)[96 – 32) + 273 = 35.55 + 273 = 308.55 deg. K    
λ_peak = 2.8977685(51)Ă—10â’3 /308.55 = 9.39x10^-6 = 9.39 um

This chart lists four examples of two objects that are in contact.
Oxana [17]

Before coming into conclusion first we have to understand the direction of heat flow.

Heat is the transferred thermal energy from one body to another body due to the temperature difference just like water flows from higher level to lower level.

Whenever two bodies having different temperature come closer to each other heat will flow from hotter body to cooler one if no external work is done. The heat flow may be through any of the ways i.e conduction,radiation or convection. Hence temperature difference is the parameter which gives the direction of heat flow.

The temperature is also considered as a measure of average kinetic energy of the substance.The thermal energy does not give the direction heat flow. Heat may  flow from the body  having low thermal energy but at higher temperature to the body having higher thermal energy but at low temperature. The reverse does not happen naturally .

In example 1 there is fire and air. Obviously fire is at high temperature and air at low temperature.So heat will flow from object 1 to object 2.

In example 2 there is a metal at 80 degree Celsius and another metal at 12 degree Celsius .So heat will flow from object 1 to object 2

In example 3 we have cooler ocean and warm air. So the heat will flow from object 2 to object 1.

In example 4 we have a tool with high thermal energy and a material with little thermal energy.We already know that thermal energy can not determine the direction of heat flow. Here the temperature of each substance is not given.The kinetic energy is  part of thermal energy.So there is the chance of higher kinetic energy of the tool for having higher thermal energy .At that time the heat will flow object 1 to object 2.Otherwise the reverse will occur. So it is a special case.

As per the question only option 4 is correct which tells that heat will flow from object 1 to object 2 in examples 1,2,4, and heat will flow from object 2 to 1 in example 3. Other options violate the fundamental law of thermodynamics.
