A sound wave has a frequency of 20 Hz and a wavelength of 100 m. What is speed of the wave

Chemistry
1 answer:
marshall27 [118]3 years ago
4 0

The speed of a wave can be calculated using this formula:

v = f x λ

Where:

v is the wave speed in metres per second, m/s

f is the frequency in hertz, Hz

λ (lambda) is the wavelength in metres, m

Calculation:

Given:

f = 20 Hz

λ = 100m

Using the equation:

v = f x λ

v = 20 x 100

v = 2000 m/s

Therfore, the speed of the wave is 2000 m/s

alexira [117]

Answer : At constant pressure work is done by the system on the surroundings.

Explanation :

Work done : Any quantity that flows across the boundary of a system during a change in its state and it completely convertible into the lifting of a weight in the surroundings.

Formula for work done is:

w=-p_{ext}dV

Sign convention :

  • When volume expand then system work that means work done by the system.

w = (-ve)

  • When volume compress then surrounding work that means work done on the system.

w = (+ve)

The given reaction is:

Hg(l)\rightarrow Hg(g)

This is a evaporation process in which phase changes from liquid state to gaseous state at constant temperature.

At constant pressure, work depends only on volume.

In evaporation process, the volume expand that means work is done by the system on the surroundings.

Sign convention is, w = (-ve)

Thus, at constant pressure work is done by the system on the surroundings.

a 125 g chunk of aluminum at 182 degrees Celsius was added to a bucket filled with 365 g of water at 22.0 degrees Celsius. Ignor
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

32.98°C

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given the following;

Mass of Aluminium as 125 g

Initial temperature of Aluminium as 182°C

Mass of water as 265 g

Initial temperature of water as 22°C

We are required to calculate the final temperature of the two compounds;

First, we need to know the specific heat capacity of each;

Specific heat capacity of Aluminium is 0.9 J/g°C

Specific heat capacity of water is 4.184 J/g°C

<h3>Step 1: Calculate the Quantity of heat gained by water.</h3>

Assuming the final temperature is X°C

we know, Q = mcΔT

Change in temperature, ΔT = (X-22)°C

therefore;

Q = 365 g × 4.184 J/g°C × (X-22)°C

    = (1527.16X-33,597.52) Joules

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the quantity of heat released by Aluminium </h3>

Using the final temperature, X°C

Change in temperature, ΔT = -(X°- 182°)C (negative because heat was lost)

Therefore;

Q = 125 g × 0.90 J/g°C × (182°-X°)C

  = (20,475- 112.5X) Joules

<h3>Step 3: Calculating the final temperature</h3>

We need to know that the heat released by aluminium is equal to heat absorbed by water.

Therefore;

(20,475- 112.5X) Joules = (1527.16X-33,597.52) Joules

Combining the like terms;

1639.66X = 54072.52

             X = 32.978°C

                = 32.98°C

Therefore, the final temperature of the two compounds will be 32.98°C
