Density applies to many if not all aspects of life. With density you can explain why ice floats. You can explain why oxygen is on the earth, and not floating around in space( or being replaced by another gas). You can also explain why heat rises while cold air sinks.

An open pipe of length 0.39m vibrates in the third harmonic with a frequency of 1400Hz. What is the distance from the center of

Gnoma [55]

Length of the pipe = 0.39 m

Third harmonic frequency = 1400 Hz

For the third harmonic:

Wavelength = $\frac{2L}{3}$

The center of the open pipe will host a node and the nearest anti - node from the center will be at the 0.25 × wavelength

Distance from center = 0.25 × wavelength

Distance = $0.25 x \frac{2L}{3}$

Plugging the value of the length of the pipe (L) = 0.39 m = 39 cm

Distance = $0.25 x \frac{2 \times 39}{3}$

Distance from the center to the nearest anti - node = 6.5 cm

Hence, the nearest distance to the anti - node from the center = 6.5 cm

So, option C is correct.

A wire has a current density of 6.25 × 10 6 A / m 2 6.25×106 A/m2 . If the cross-sectional area of the wire is 1.79 mm 2 1.79 mm

joja [24]

Answer:17.44A

Explanation: Current density=I/Area

Area is given by 2.79mm^2=2.79×10^-6m^2

Current=I=current density ×Area=6.25×10^6 ×2.79×10^-6=17.44A

Monochromatic light is incident on (and perpendicular to) two slits separated by 0.200 mm, which causes an interference pattern

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

I = 0.636*Imax

Explanation:

(a) To find the fraction of the maximum intensity at a distance y from the central maximum you use the following formula:

$I=I_{max}cos^2(\frac{\pi d}{\lambda L}y)$ (1)

I: intensity of light

Imax: maximum intensity of light

d: separation between slits = 0.200mm = 0.200 *10^-3 m

L: distance from the screen = 613cm = 0.613 m

y: distance to the central peak of the interference pattern

λ: wavelength of light = 656.3 nm = 656.3 *10^-9 m

You replace the values of all variables in the equation (1):

$I=I_{max}cos^2(\frac{\pi (0.200*10^{-3}m)}{(656.3*10^{-9}m)(0.613m)}0.600m)\\\\I=I_{max}cos^2(937.06)=0.636I_{max}$

Hence, the fraction of the maximum intensity is I = 0.636*Imax

Do you think toxicity is a qualitative or quantitative property? explain

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Toxicity is a quantitative property

Explanation:

Qualitative property of a object cannot be measured it can just be observed

Quantitative property of a substance can be measured and be assigned a numerical value .
The toxicity level of a substance can be measured and be assigned a numeral value
