Most people can detect frequencies as high as 20 000 Hz. Assuming the speed of sound in air is 345 m/s, determine the wavelength

of the sound corresponding to this upper range of audible hearing.

Formula to solve for the wavelength: w = s/f

w = wavelength

s = speed

f = frequency

Solve using the given values.

w = 345/20000

w = 0.01725

Round if necessary.

0.0173

Therefore, the wavelength is approximately 0.0173 meters.

Best of Luck!

Wavelength = speed / frequency

(345 m/s) / (20,000 Hz) = 0.017 m

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

|\vec A + \vec B| = 50 units

Explanation:

As we know that magnitude of two vectors is given as

|\vec A + \vec B| = \sqrt{A^2 + B^2 + 2AB cos\theta}

here we know that

A = magnitude of vector A

B = magnitude of vector B

\theta = angle between two vectors

so here we know that

A = 30 units

B = 40 units

angle = 90 degree

so we have

|\vec A + \vec B| = \sqrt{30^2 + 40^2 + 2(30)(40)cos90}

|\vec A + \vec B| = \sqrt{30^2 + 40^2}

|\vec A + \vec B| = 50 units

Why are we buried in the ground when we die?

What kind of the question is that. We aren't really buried. We either go to Heaven or the other place. Some people say it's over when your buried in the ground but believers don't really think that.

What is the relationship between the frequency and the wavelength of a wave?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer: The wavelength and frequency of light are closely related. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength.
