The answer is:

C. 361 m/s

The explanation:

To calculate  the speed of sound at a given temperature (50°C) we are going to use this formula:

v = 331 + 0.6T

when V is the velocity

and T is the temperature = 50°C

by substitution:

v = 331 + 0.6(50)

v = 361 m/s

So, The correct answer is C.

because of the variation of the motion of the molecules of air with change of temperature so, the velocity (V) of the  sound in the air is change with temperature.

A wave travels at 295 m/s and has a wavelength of 2.50 m. What is the frequency of the wave?
posledela

Answer:

118\; \rm Hz.

Explanation:

The frequency f of a wave is equal to the number of wave cycles that go through a point on its path in unit time (where "unit time" is typically equal to one second.)

The wave in this question travels at a speed of v= 295\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}. In other words, the wave would have traveled 295\; \rm m in each second. Consider a point on the path of this wave. If a peak was initially at that point, in one second that peak would be

How many wave cycles can fit into that 295\; \rm m? The wavelength of this wave\lambda = 2.50\; \rm m gives the length of one wave cycle. Therefore:

\displaystyle \frac{295\;\rm m}{2.50\; \rm m} = 118.

That is: there are 118 wave cycles in 295\; \rm m of this wave.

On the other hand, Because that 295\; \rm m of this wave goes through that point in each second, that 118 wave cycles will go through that point in the same amount of time. Hence, the frequency of this wave would be

Because one wave cycle per second is equivalent to one Hertz, the frequency of this wave can be written as:

f = 118\; \rm s^{-1} = 118\; \rm Hz.

The calculations above can be expressed with the formula:

\displaystyle f = \frac{v}{\lambda},

where

  • v represents the speed of this wave, and
  • \lambda represents the wavelength of this wave.

Three Carnot engines operate between the following temperature limits.
Kipish [7]

Answer:c>a>b

Explanation:

Given

All the engine extracts same amount of heat(Q) from High-temperature reservoir

For a) 400 and 500 K

\eta _{engine}=1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}

\eta _{engine}=\frac{work\ supplied}{heat\ supplied}

1-\frac{400}{500}=\frac{W_a}{Q}

W_a=\frac{Q}{5}

For b)500 K and 600K

1-\frac{500}{600}=\frac{W_b}{Q}

W-b=\frac{Q}{6}

For c) 400 K and 600 K

1-\frac{400}{600}=\frac{W_c}{Q}

W_c=\frac{2Q}{3}

So c will give the highest amount of work

c>a>b
