363 m/s is the speed of sound through the air in the pipe.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

The formula used to calculate the wavelength given as below,

      Wavelength (\lambda)=\frac{\text { wave velocity }(v)}{\text { frequency }(f)}

      v=\lambda \times f   --------> eq. 1

In power system, harmonics define by positive integers of the fundamental frequency. So the third order harmonic is a multiple of the third fundamental frequency. Each harmonic creates an additional node and an opposite node, as well as an additional half wave within the string.

If the number of waves in the circuit is known, the comparison between standing wavelength and circuit length can be calculated algebraically. The general expression for this given as,

         L=\frac{n \lambda}{2}

For first harmonic, n =1

         L=\frac{\lambda}{2}

For second harmonic, n =2

         L=\frac{2 \lambda}{2}=\lambda

For third harmonic, n =3

         L=\frac{3 \lambda}{2}

         \lambda=\frac{2 L}{3}   -------> eq. 2

Here given f = 939 Hz, L = 0.58 m...And, substitute eq 2 in eq 1 and values, we get

   v=\frac{2 \times 0.58 \times 989}{3}=\frac{1089.24}{3}=363.08 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

What are some climate facts
aleksley [76]
The greenhouse effect is a warming effect caused by certain gases that retain heat from sunlight. Without such gases, the average surface temperature of the Earth would be below freezing, and as explained by the Encyclopedia of Environmental Science, “life, as we know it, would not exist.” 
<span>
 The global warming debate is centered upon whether added greenhouse gases released by human activity will overheat the Earth and cause harmful effects.</span><span>

Explain how objects in motion have kinetic energy, use examples
Ann [662]
Kinetic energy is energy that a body possesses by virtue of being in motion, there for if an object is moving, it has kinetic energy.
Example; A roller coaster sitting on top of hill has potential energy. When it starts to move and is going down the hill, it has kinetic energy. :)

Assume an axon has an internal diameter of 1μm and a myelin sheath 1μm thick. The internal specific resistance is 100 Ω cm. For
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

1.27\times 10^{12}\Omega/m

Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter=d=\mu m

Thickness=1\mu m

Radius=r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\mu m=0.5\times 10^{-6} m

Using 1\mu m=10^{-6} m

Dielectric constant=8

Resistance =R=2\times 10^5\Omega cm^2

Internal specific resistance=r=100 ohm cm=100\times \frac{1}{100}\Omega-m=1\Omega m

Using 1 m=100 cm

Internal resistance per unit length=\frac{r}{A}=\frac{1}{\pi r^2}=\frac{1}{3.14\times (0.5\times 10^{-6})^2}=1.27\times 10^{12}\Omega/m

Using \pi=3.14

Internal resistance per unit length=1.27\times 10^{12}\Omega/m

Design an experimental set up to show that white light is made up of different colours of light​
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Issac Newton was the first to use a glass prism to obtain the spectrum of sunlight. He tried to split the colours of the spectrum of white light further by using another similar prism. However, he could not get any more colours. He then placed a second identical prism in an inverted position with respect to the first as shown.

This allowed all the colours of the spectrum to pass through the second prism. He found a beam of white light emerging from the other side of the second prism. This observation gave Newton the idea that the sunlight is made-up of seven colours.
