<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.

1.   A car travels along a straight road to the east for 100 meters in 4 seconds, then go the west for 50 meters in 1 second.
Alla [95]

Answer:

a.Distance = 150 m

b. Displacement = 50 m

Time lapsed = 5 seconds

Explanation:

a. Distance is the change in the position of an object.

The distance covered by the car = 100 + 50

                                                   = 150 m

b. Since displacement is a vector quantity,

Displacement of the car = 100 - 50

                                        = 50 m due east

c. Time elapsed is the time taken for the motion of the car starting from when its starts to when it stops.

Thus, the time elapsed = 4 + 1

                        = 5 seconds

The temperature of the cooling water as it leaves the hot engine of an automobile is 240 °F. After it passes through the radiato
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:571.09 kJ

Explanation:

Given

Temperature of cooling water from engine exit=240^{\circ} F\approx 115.55^{\circ}C

After Passing through the radiator its temperature decreases to 175^{\circ}F\approx 79.44^{\circ}F

specific heat of water=4.184 J/g^{\circ}C

Volume of water = 1 gallon\approx 3.78 L

density of water \rho =1 gm/mL

Thus mass of water=\rho \times V=3.78\times 1=3.78 kg

Heat transferred to the surrounding is equal to heat absorbed by cooling water

Q=m\cdot c\cdot \Delta T

Q=3.78\times 4.184\times 1000\times (115.55-79.44)

Q=3.78\times 4.184\times 1000\times (36.11)

Q=571.09 kJ

In order for a space shuttle to leave Earth, it must produce a great amount of thrust. Its rocket boosters create this thrusting
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Orbit

Explanation:

The term that describes motion of the shuttle around earth is called as<em> Orbit.</em>

The orbit is defined as a regular repeating path that object takes around another.

The shuttle circles around the earth at a constant distance from earth surface is because of earth gravity and forward motion of earth.
