Why is the specific heat of salt solution lower than that of water?

Physics

When we dissolve NaCl in water, the ions are held in a rigid cage of water molecules. It takes less energy to activate these molecules, so the specific heat of the water decreases. The greater concentration of NaCl, the lower the specific heat capacity of the solution.

The traffic on the freeway is moving at a constant speed of 24 m/sm/s. What distance does the traffic travel while the car is mo
ExtremeBDS [4]

Incomplete question as there is so much information is missing.The complete question is here

A car sits on an entrance ramp to a freeway, waiting for a break in the traffic. Then the driver accelerates with constant acceleration along the ramp and onto the freeway. The car starts from rest, moves in a straight line, and has a speed of 24 m/s (54 mi/h) when it reaches the end of the 120-m-long ramp. The traffic on the freeway is moving at a constant speed of 24 m/s. What distance does the traffic travel while the car is moving the length of the ramp?

Answer:

Distance traveled=240 m

Explanation:

Given data

Initial velocity of car v₀=0 m/s

Final velocity of car vf=24 m/s

Distance traveled by car S=120 m

To find

Distance does the traffic travel

Solution

To find the distance first we need to find time, for time first we need acceleration

So

(V_{f})^{2}=(V_{o})^{2}+2aS\\  So\\a=\frac{(V_{f})^{2}-(V_{o})^{2} }{2S}\\ a=\frac{(24m/s)^{2}-(0m/s)^{2} }{2(120)}\\a=2.4 m/s^{2}

As we find acceleration.Now we need to find time

So

V_{f}=V_{i}+at\\t=\frac{V_{f}-V_{i}}{a}\\t=\frac{(24m/s)-(0m/s)}{(2.4m/s^{2} )}\\t=10s

Now for distance

So

Distance=velocity*time\\Distance=(24m/s)*(10s)\\Distance=240m

Suppose a sound wave and a light wave have the same frequency.
dedylja [7]

Answer:

The light wave has a longer wavelength and has the greater speed.

Explanation:

light has a far more greater speed than sound. The speed of sound in air is about 343m/s while that of light is around  3 *10^{8}m/s

wavelength (λ) =\frac{V}{f}

since the frequencies of sound and light are same from the question, the wavelength would depend on the magnitude of their velocities. Light with a higher speed would have a longer wavelength.
