Answer:

ν = 1483.939 m/s

Explanation:

Wave propagation speed (ν):

  • ν = λ / T

∴ Wavelength ( λ ) = 4.25 m

∴ Period ( T ) = 1 / f

∴ frequency ( f ) = 349.2 Hz ( s-1 )

⇒ T = 1 / 349.2 s-1

⇒ T = 2.864 E-3 s

⇒ ν = (4.25 m) / (2.864 E-3 s)

⇒ ν = 1483.939 m/s

<u>Answer:</u> The wave speed of the given sound wave is 1.48\times 10^3m/s  

<u>Explanation:</u>

Wave speed is defined as the product of its wavelength and frequency.

Mathematically,

\text{Wave speed}=\lambda\times \nu

where,

\lambda = wavelength of the wave = 4.25 m

\nu = frequency of the wave = 349.2 Hz = 349.2s^{-1}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Wave speed}=4.25m\times 349.2s^{-1}\\\\\text{Wave speed}=1484.1m/s=1.48\times 10^3m/s

Hence, the wave speed of the given sound wave is 1.48\times 10^3m/s

Which statement best describes why specific heat capacity is often more useful than heat capacity for scientists when comparing
Misha Larkins [42]

The correct option is this: SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY IS AN INTENSIVE PROPERTY AND DOES NOT DEPEND ON SAMPLE SIZE.

Generally, all the properties of matters can be divided into two classes, these are intensive and extensive properties. Intensive properties are those properties that are not determined by the quantity of the material that is present or available. Examples of intensive properties are colour, density and specific heat capacity. For instance, whether you have a bucket of water or a cup of water, the quantity does not matter, the colour of water will always remain the same. Extensive properties in contrast, are those properties that depend on the quantity of material that is available. Examples are mass, heat capacity and volume.

A 24.00 mL sample of a solution of Pb(ClO3)2 was diluted with water to 52.00 mL. A 17.00 mL sample of the dilute solution was fo
lara [203]

Answer:

0.238 M

Explanation:

A 17.00 mL sample of the dilute solution was found to contain 0.220 M ClO₃⁻(aq). The concentration is an intensive property, so the concentration in the 52.00 mL is also 0.220 M ClO₃⁻(aq). We can find the initial concentration of ClO₃⁻ using the dilution rule.

C₁.V₁ = C₂.V₂

C₁ × 24.00 mL = 0.220 M × 52.00 mL

C₁ = 0.477 M

The concentration of Pb(ClO₃)₂ is:

\frac{0.477molClO_{3}^{-} }{L} \times \frac{1molPb(ClO_{3})_{2}}{2molClO_{3}^{-}} =0.238M

Which of the following describes the process of deflation?
goldenfox [79]
The answer is C. <span>The wind removes surface particles, resulting in lower land surface.

Deflation is the process of lifting and moving of tiny particles of soil or sand, brought about by the wind. It can also be associated with soil erosion. This is a common phenomenon in deserts and sand dune areas near the coast.</span>
