Answer:

Minimum height of metal = 5 inches

Explanation:

Volume of the cylindrical metal = πR²H = 125π

cancelling out π on both sides

R²H = 125

Hence it can be deduced that R² = 25 and H = 5

Hence minimum height of metal = 5 inches

How does the wavelength of a wave change when frequency decreases? when frequency increases?

KonstantinChe [14]

Wavelength increases as Frequency decreases and vice versa.

This is because Wavelength and frequency are inversely related.

Two equal, but oppositely charged particles are attracted to each other electrically. The size of the force of attraction is 48.

galina1969 [7]

Given:

The force of attraction is F = 48.1 N

The separation between the charges is

$\begin{gathered} r=\text{ 60.9 cm} \\ =\text{ 60.9}\times10^{-2}\text{ m} \end{gathered}$

Also, the magnitude of charge q1 = q2 = q.

To find the magnitude of charge.

Explanation:

The magnitude of charge can be calculated by the formula

$\begin{gathered} F=\frac{k(2q)}{r^2} \\ q=\frac{Fr^2}{2k} \end{gathered}$

Here, k is the Coulomb's constant whose value is

$k\text{ = 9}\times10^9\text{ N m}^2\text{ /C}^2$

On substituting the values, the magnitude of charge will be

$\begin{gathered} q=\frac{48.1\times(60.9^\times10^{-2})^2}{2\times9\times10^{^9}} \\ =9.91\times10^{-10}\text{ C} \\ =9.91\times10^{-4}\text{ }\mu C \end{gathered}$

Thus, the magnitude of each charge is 9.91 x 10^(-4) micro Coulombs.
