Answer:

a. 0.18Hz

b. 0.56m/s

Explanation:

From the question we can deduct the following parameters

The wavelength, λ is define as the distance between two successful crest or trough and from the question we conclude that wavelength is 3.17m.

Also the period of the wave T can be computed as

T=22.6/4

T=5.65secs.

a. To compute the frequency, recall that frequency, F=1/period.

Hence,

F=1/5.65

F=0.18Hz

b. Next we compute the wave speed.

Wave speed=frequency *wavelength

Wave speed =0.18*3.17

Wave speed =0.56m/s

Synthesis and decomposition reactions are  b. Synthesis and decomposition reactions are opposites of each other. Synthesis reactions are in the form A + B → AB, while decomposition reactions are in the form AB → A + B.

Synthesis reactions are reactions in which elements or compounds combine to form a larger compound. They are of the form A + B → AB.

Example: Na(s) + Cl (g)→ NaCl(s)

Decomposition reactions are reactions in which a larger compound breaks up into smaller compounds or elements. They are of the form AB → A + B.

Example: CaCO₃(s) → CaO (s) + CO₂ (g)

Synthesis and decomposition reactions are opposite of each other since synthesis reactions, new substances are formed while in decomposition reactions the compound is broken down into into smaller constituents.

So, Synthesis and decomposition reactions are  b. Synthesis and decomposition reactions are opposites of each other. Synthesis reactions are in the form A + B → AB, while decomposition reactions are in the form AB → A + B.

A guitar string is 90 cm long and has a mass of 3.7 g . The distance from the bridge to the support post is L=62cm, and the stri
zvonat [6]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept of frequency in a string from the nodes, the tension, the linear density and the length of the string, that is,

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

Here

n = Number of node

T = Tension

\mu = Linear density

L = Length

Replacing the values in the frequency and value of n is one for fundamental overtone

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

f = \frac{1}{2(62*10^{-2})}(\sqrt{\frac{500}{(\frac{3.7*10^{-3}}{90*10^{-2}})}})

\mathbf{f = 281.2Hz}

Similarly plug in 2 for n for first overtone and determine the value of frequency

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

f = \frac{2}{2(62*10^{-2})}(\sqrt{\frac{500}{(\frac{3.7*10^{-3}}{90*10^{-2}})}})

\mathbf{f = 562.4Hz}

Similarly plug in 3 for n for first overtone and determine the value of frequency

f = \frac{n}{2L}(\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}})

f = \frac{3}{2(62*10^{-2})}\bigg (\sqrt{\frac{500}{(\frac{3.7*10^{-3}}{90*10^{-2}})}} \bigg)

\mathbf{f= 843.7Hz}

Answer:

C. turtles with genes for long necks had a better chance of surviving to reach reproductive age.

Explanation:

The turtles that had long necks were more fit to the environmnet in which they were lovated and were able to grow larger and have more reproductive time because of their ability to feed on grass and small shrubs, this helped them always haev food available, and made them the dominant gene eventually.
