<span>The speed of a wave, V, is f *lambda. Where f is the frequency and lambda is the distance. If a new crest reaches the end every 4 secs; it takes 8s to cover the distance. Hence, f, which is the number of oscillations covered is 8s. So we have V = 8 * 5 = 40 ms^1.</span>

An ideal parallel plate capacitor with a cross-sectional area of 0.4 cm2 contains a dielectric with a dielectric constant of 4 a
Mrrafil [7]

Answer: 283.2\times 10^{-9}\ nC

Explanation:

Given

Cross-sectional area A=0.4\ cm^2

Dielectric constant k=4

Dielectric strength E=2\times 10^8\ V/m

Distance between capacitors d=5\ mm

Maximum charge that can be stored before dielectric breakdown is given by

\Rightarrow Q=CV\\\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{k\epsilon_oA}{d}\cdot (Ed)\quad\quad [V=E\cdot d]\\\\\Rightarrow Q=k\epsilon_oAE\\\\\Rightarrow Q=4\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 0.4\times 10^{-4}\times 2\times 10^8\\\\\Rightarrow Q=28.32\times 10^{-8}\\\\\Rightarrow Q=283.2\times 10^{-9}\ nC

What is the lowest level of sound that can be detected by human hearing? 0 Hz 10 Hz 20 Hz 100 Hz
maxonik [38]
These choices are not "levels" of sound.  They're frequencies of sound.

The lower limit of audible frequency is usually considered to be 20 Hz.
But there are some people with ears that can hear 10 Hz, and others ...
particularly the elderly ... who can't hear anything below 100 Hz.

The question is a rather poor one.
