<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

The frequency stays the same and the wavelength increases.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Sound waves are a type of mechanical wave which requires a material medium for transmission. The transmission of such waves occurs as a result of vibration of particles in the material medium. The faster the vibration of the particles the higher the speed of the sound waves.</u></em>
  • <em><u>When a sound enters a new medium where the sound travels faster, it means the vibration of particles is high, and the wavelength of the waves increases which means the speed of the wave has increased. The frequency on the other hand will remain constant.</u></em>

The frequency doesn't change. If the wavespeed increases, then the wavelength must also increase ... It's just the distance the wave travels during each complete wiggle.

En el mar, la luz visible alcanza una profundidad de aproximadamente 200 metros (zona fotica). ¿De dónde obtienen energías las p
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

En la zona apótica (profundidad inferior a 200 m); todo lo que queda de la luz solar es una luz tenue, opaca, azul-verde, demasiado impotente para siquiera considerar permitir que ocurra la fotosíntesis. Sin embargo, hay comida para tener; basura, trozos de plantas podridas y derroche de criaturas caen desde arriba para cuidar a los seres vivos en la zona apótica.

Las formas de vida a una profundidad inferior a 200 m dependen de los productos químicos que salen de los respiraderos; el procedimiento que utilizan para hacer los alimentos se llama quimiosíntesis en lugar de fotosíntesis.

Using energy considerations, calculate the average force (in N) a 67.0 kg sprinter exerts backward on the track to accelerate fr
Illusion [34]

Answer:

F_{sprinter}=110.4N

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m=67.0 kg

Final Speed vf=8.00 m/s

Initial Speed vi=2.00 m/s

Distance d=25.0 m

Force F=30.0 N

From work-energy theorem we know that the work done equals the change in kinetic energy

W=ΔK=Kf-Ki=1/2mvf²-1/2mvi²

And

W=F_{total}.d

So

W=1/2mv_{f}^2-1/2mv_{i}^2\\F_{total}=\frac{1/2mv_{f}^2-1/2mv_{i}^2}{d} \\F_{total}=\frac{1/2(67.0kg)(8.00m/s)^2-1/2(67.0kg)(2.00m/s)^2}{25.0m} \\F_{total}=80.4N

and we know that the force the sprinter exerted Fsprinter the force of the headwind Fwind=30.0N

So

F_{sprinter}=F_{total}+F_{wind}\\F_{sprinter}=80.4N+30N\\F_{sprinter}=110.4N

A person pushes a 10 kg box from rest and accelerates it to a speed of 4 m/s with a constant force. If the box is pushed for a t
lutik1710 [3]

The box is accelerated from rest to 4 m/s in a matter of 2.5 s, so its acceleration <em>a</em> is such that

4 m/s = <em>a</em> (2.5 s)   →   <em>a</em> = (4 m/s) / (2.5 s) = 1.6 m/s²

Then the force applied to the box has a magnitude <em>F</em> such that

<em>F</em> = (10 kg) (1.6 m/s²) = 16 N
