Voices of swimmers at a pool travel 400 m/s through the air and 1,600 m/s underwater. The wavelength changes from 2 m in the air
frosja888 [35]

The frequency of the wave has not changed.

In fact, the frequency of a wave is given by:

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where v is the wave's speed and \lambda is the wavelength.

Applying the formula:

- In air, the frequency of the wave is:

f=\frac{400 m/s}{2 m}=200 Hz

- underwater, the frequency of the wave is:

f=\frac{1600 m/s}{8 m}=200 Hz

So, the frequency has not changed.

Which of these atoms is the most electronegative? select one: a. si b. cl c. p d. f e. c
katrin [286]

The atom that is the most electronegative is fluorine (F).

<h3>What is electronegative?</h3>

Electronegativity, is the tendency for an atom of a given chemical element to attract shared electrons when forming a chemical bond.

Electronegativity increases across the groups from left to right of the periodic table and decreases down the group.

Examples of electronegative elements arranged in decreasing order;

  • fluorine,
  • oxygen,
  • nitrogen,
  • chlorine,
  • bromine,
  • iodine,
  • sulfur,
  • carbon, and
  • hydrogen.

Thus,  the atom that is the most electronegative is fluorine (F).

A skater is using very low friction rollerblades. A friend throws a Frisbee at her, on the straight line along which she is coas
kupik [55]

Answer:

a)  perfectly inelastic,  b)  collision is inelastic,  c)   elastic  

Explanation:

In this exercise, it is asked to identify what type of shock occurs between the skater and the frisbee, for this we must define a system formed by the skater and the fribee, so that the forces during the crash have been internal and the amount of movement is preserved

Initial instant. Before the skater touches the frisbee

    p₀ = M v₁ + m v₂

where M and m are the masses of the skater and frisbee, respectively

for the final moment they give us several possibilities, in all case the moment is conserved

       p₀ = p_{f}

case a)

Final instant. grabs the frisbee and holds it

    p_{f} = (M + m) v '

     p₀ = p_{f}

We can see that this shock is perfectly inelastic, it holds the fressbee

case b)

final instant.

This case is similar to the previous one, but the final speed of fresbee is zero, therefore this collision is inelastic and the kinetic energy is not conserved.

case c)

final instant. Grab the fressbee and resend it

      p_{f} = M v_{1f} + m v_{2f}

this is an elastic Shock since the equivalent of a rebound of the fressbee, the kinetic energy is conserved.

What is the acceleration of a 10 kg mass pushed 5 n forceushed by a 5n(kg-m/s2) (use gresa method)
Pepsi [2]

In this problem,

Applied force(F) = 10 N

The object’s mass (m) is 5 kg.

Having said that,

An object’s force is equal to the product of its mass and the acceleration it experiences as a result of the applied force.

i.e., Mass + Acceleration = Force (a)

F= m×a

Therefore,

A= F÷m

A= (10÷5) m/sec²

A= 2 m/sec²

Consequently, the object’s acceleration,

A=2 m/sec²

Concept of force and acceleration:

This states that the rate of velocity change of an object is directly proportional to the applied force and moves in the direction of the applied force.

It can be expressed mathematically as force (N) = mass (kg) x acceleration (m/s2). Therefore, an object with constant mass will accelerate in direct proportion to the applied force.
