Explanation:

Black holes are the most massive and dense objects in the whole universe. They are peculiar objects. The gravity near black hole is so strong that even light can not escape it. That is why the name: Black hole. It is formed after the death of a supermassive star. All the mass of the star is condensed in to a very small area having a very string gravity. Imagine the Sun squeezed in to an object of diameter of just 3 km!

You can define it as a dead super massive star from which nothing can escape.

What is the speed of a wave with a wavelength of 3 m and a frequency of .1Hz?

Yuri [45]

We know,
Speed = Frequency * Wavelength
Speed = 3 * 0.1 m/s [hertz = 1/sec.]
So, your final answer is 0.3 m/s

Hope this helps!!

Ted William drops a ball from 14.5 meter to a desk that is 1.9 meters tall. What is the final speed of the ball right before it

makkiz [27]

Answer:

15.7m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we use the right motion equation.

Here, we have been given the height through which the ball drops;

Height of drop = 14.5m - 1.9m = 12.6m

The right motion equation is;

V² = U² + 2gh

V is the final velocity

U is the initial velocity = 0

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

h is the height

Now insert the parameters and solve;

V² = 0² + 2 x 9.8 x 12.6

V² = 246.96

V = √246.96 = 15.7m/s

A sample of a diatomic ideal gas has pressure P and volume V. When the gas is warmed, its pressure triples and its volume double

Andreyy89

Answer:

Amount of Energy transferred $=8.5PV$

Explanation:

Given:

Initial volume=V

Initial pressure=P

Final volume=2V

Final pressure=3P

Now w know that the Energy transferred in constant pressure pressure is given by

$E_1=nc_pdT\\\\E_1=n\times\dfrac{7R}{2}dT\\E_1=3.5(nRdT)\\E_1=3.5(V(2P-P))\\E_1=3.5PV$

Now the Energy transferred in constant volume process is given by

$E_2=nc_vdT\\\\E_2=n\times\dfrac{5R}{2}dT\\E_1=2.5(nRdT)\\E_1=2.5(V(3V-V))\\E_1=5PV$

The total Energy transferred is given by

$E_{total}=E_1+E_2\\E{total}=3.5PV+5PV\\=8.5PV$

According to your graph, does the wave speed change with wave length?

fiasKO [112]

Yes

Explanation:

From the graph, we can deduce that the wavelength changes with the speed of the wave.

This is a simple linear graph. A linear graph has a steady gradient and it shows two variables that increases proportionately.

Using the graph, we can establish that as the wavelength of the wave increases the time taken for one wave to pass through increases.

The speed of a wave is given as:

V = fλ

f is the frequency of the wave i.e the number of waves that passes through a point per unit of time

λ is the wavelength of the wave

The vertical axis on the graph shows the time for 1 wave trip, this is the wave period, T

f = $\frac{1}{T}$

Therefore;

speed of the wave = $\frac{λ}{T}$

This can be evaluated by solving slope of the graph and finding the inverse.

We can see that as the speed of the wave changes, the wavelength will change.
