Answer: smaller

LPK (Litre per kilometer) refers to amount of fuel in litres required per unit km by a car. In Europe, LPK number is used to specify the efficiency of a car. An efficient car would be the one which would consume less amount of fuel per kilometer run. Hence, a more efficient car would have smaller LPK number.

A more efficient car will have smaller LPK number.

Explanation

LPK number is the measure of liters of fuel consumed by the vehicle to travel one kilometer distance.

The LPK number that is liters per kilometer number is used in Europe to determine the efficiency of cars.

A car will be termed as efficient if it uses less amount of fuel for travelling a larger distance.

This indicates that car which has more mileage or in other word which consumes less quantity of fuel to travel longer distance is termed as efficient cars.

Thus , a more efficient car will have smaller LPK number.

The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years. how long will it take for 7/8 of a sample of carbon-14 to decay
wlad13 [49]
The half life of Carbon-14 is 5730 years, how many years would it take for 7/8 of the original amount to decay? 

<span>Can somebody please help with this problem. I *think* I understand the basics of what a half life is. If I learned correctly, its the amount it takes for half of a sample to decay. It should also happen exponentially, 1/2 remaining after one half life, 1/4 after the second, 1/16 after the third etc. I'm still a little shaky though. Could somebody please clarify what exactly a half life is and how it can be determined (i.e. how to find the time it would take for 7/8 to decay) </span>

A sinusoidal sound wave moves through a medium and is described by the displacement wave function
ZanzabumX [31]

By applying the wave equation we know that the maximum speed of the element's oscillatory motion is 1716 micrometer / s.

We need to know about wave equations to solve this problem. The displacement of the wave on the y-axis can be explained by the wave equation

y = A cos (kx - ωt)

where y is y-axis displacement, A is amplitude, k is wave number, x is x-axis displacement, ω is angular speed and t is time.

the wavenumber and angular speed of the wave equation can be determined respectively by

k = 2π / λ

ω = 2πf

where k is the wavenumber, λ is wavelength and f is frequency.

From the question above, we know that:

y = 2.00cos (15.7x - 858t)

v = dy / dt

v = d(2.00cos (15.7x - 858t)) / dt

v = -858 x (-2.00sin(15.7x - 858t))

v = 1716 sin(15.7x - 858t) micrometer/s

maximum velocity can be reached when (sinθ = 1), hence

v = 1716 sin(15.7x - 858t)

v = 1716 x 1

v = 1716 micrometer / s

What happens to the moleclues within a gas when the gas Condeenses
motikmotik
Condensation happens when molecules in a gas cool down. As the molecules lose heat, they lose energy and slow down. They move closer to other gas molecules. Finally these molecules collect together to form a liquid. Hope it helps
