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

A car starting from rest (i.e. initial velocity = 0.0 m/s), moves in the positive X-direction with a constant average accelerati
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Final speed of the car, v = 24.49 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial velocity of the car, u = 0

Acceleration, a=3.1\ m/s^2

Time taken, t = 7.9 s

We need to find the final velocity of the car. Let it is given by v. It can be calculated using first equation of motion as :

v=u+at

v=0+3.1\times 7.9

v = 24.49 m/s

So, the final speed of the car is 24.49 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

I'm not sure but I had this question on a benchmark I think its the density of the wire  you need to  find the density or the mass I'm not sure but i do remember this question

What are the signs of the velocity, force, and acceleration (components) afterthe cart is released and is moving qway from the m
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

car is moving away its direction is negative.

the speed must also be negative.

speed this distance decreases the acceleration is negative and if the speed is increasing the acceleration is positive.

Explanation:

In the exercise they indicate that the direction to the motion sensor is positive, as they indicate that the car is moving away its direction is negative.

The speed of the car is

           v = (x₂-x₁) / t

As the positions are negative, and the car moves away the speed must also be negative.

The analysis for acceleration must be very careful if the speed this distance decreases the acceleration is negative and if the speed is increasing the acceleration is positive.

Can someone give me tips to passing AP Physics 1 with a solid A? Like, tips on how to memorize a lot of equations? Thank you!
Anna007 [38]
A good way for me to remember things is to study it, and to write it down! Say you want the formula for speed, I would write the formula multiple times on a piece of paper! 

Here's a video that I haven't actually watched, I just looked it up! It might help you out though: <span>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Wqrw4G79Kc</span>
