Answer:

42.9 cm

Explanation:

given,

speed of sound, v = 340 m/s

Frequency of tuning fork, f = 198 Hz

The length of the shortest air column closed at one end.

this is the case of the standing wave.

L = N λ

N = the number of complete sine waves in the standing wave.

The standing wave in the problem is the first harmonic of a pipe open at one end.

N = 1/4

we know,

v = f λ

340 = 198 x λ

λ = 1.717 m

now,

L = N λ

L = \dfrac{1}{4}\times 1.717

L = 0.429\ m

   L = 42.9 cm

minimum length of the required pipe is 42.9 cm.

Which is true about the pressure of a fluid at a specific depth? A. It depends on the surface area of the fluid. B. It is exerte
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

c) depends only on the type of fluid

Explanation:

The pressure of a fluid at a specific depth is given by:

where

is the density of the fluid

g is the gravitational acceleration

h is the depth

We see that for a given depth h, the pressure of the fluid depends only on its density, so only on the type of fluid. Therefore, the correct choice is

a) depends only on the type of fluid

The other choices are wrong because:

b) the pressure is exerted in every direction

c) the pressure does not depend on the total volume of the fluid, but only on the depth h

The balls in the image above have different masses and speeds. Rank them in terms of momentum, from least to greatest.
N76 [4]
The momentum of an object is equivalent to the product of the object's mass and velocity. Computing the momentum for each ball:
A- 15 * 0.7 = 10.5
B- 5.5 * 1.2 = 6.6
C- 5.0 * 2.5 = 12.5
D- 1.5 * 5.0 = 7.5

Therefore, ball C has the greatest momentum.

dexar [7]

Answer:

The linear momentum is zero

Explanation:

Because

When a rigid body is rotating about a fixed axis passing through point O, the body’s linear momentum given as L = mvG

But VG= 0 so

Linear momentum is zero
