What controls the frequency of a wave?

Physics

Answer:

Wave frequency can be measured by counting the number of crests (high points) of waves that pass the fixed point in 1 second or some other time period. The higher the number is, the greater the frequency of the waves. ... For example, it is the distance between two adjacent crests in the transverse waves in the diagram.

Determine the average value of the translational kinetic energy of the molecules of an ideal gas at (a) 27.8°C and (b) 143°C. Wh

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

a) $k_{avg}=6.22\times 10^{-21}$

b) $k_{avg}=8.61\times 10^{-21}$

c) $k_{mol}=3.74\times 10^{3}J/mol$

d) $k_{mol}=5.1\times 10^{3}J/mol$

Explanation:

Average translation kinetic energy ( $k_{avg}$ ) is given as

$k_{avg}=\frac{3}{2}\times kT$ ....................(1)

where,

k = Boltzmann's constant ; 1.38 × 10⁻²³ J/K

T = Temperature in kelvin

a) at T = 27.8° C

T = 27.8 + 273 = 300.8 K

substituting the value of temperature in the equation (1)

we have

$k_{avg}=\frac{3}{2}\times 1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 300.8$

$k_{avg}=6.22\times 10^{-21}J$

b) at T = 143° C

T = 143 + 273 = 416 K

substituting the value of temperature in the equation (1)

we have

$k_{avg}=\frac{3}{2}\times 1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 416$

$k_{avg}=8.61\times 10^{-21}J$

c ) The translational kinetic energy per mole of an ideal gas is given as:

$k_{mol}=A_{v}\times k_{avg}$

here $A_{v}$ = Avagadro's number; ( 6.02×10²³ )

now at T = 27.8° C

$k_{mol}=6.02\times 10^{23}\times 6.22\times 10^{-21}$

$k_{mol}=3.74\times 10^{3}J/mol$

d) now at T = 143° C

$k_{mol}=6.02\times 10^{23}\times 8.61\times 10^{-21}$

$k_{mol}=5.1\times 10^{3}J/mol$

Answer:

A jar of mixed nuts is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A heterogeneous mixture is a type of mixture that is not uniform in the appearance and composition varies throughout.

The heterogeneous mixture consists of multiple phases.

A jar of mixed nuts is an example of the heterogeneous mixture because they do not have a uniform composition component differ in proportion and they do not mix, instead, they form two different layers and they can be easily separated.

Two rocks are at the top of a building. Rock 1 is dropped from rest while Rock 2 is thrown horizontaly at a velocity of 5 ms.

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

I'm pretty sure the answer is 0 m/s²

Explanation:

The horizontal velocity of the second rock is 5 m/s, so if we pretend air resistance doesn't exist, it will maintain that horizontal velocity, meaning that there is no horizontal acceleration.

A hypodermic needle consists of a plunger of circular cross-section that slides inside a hollow cylindrical syringe. when the pl

Blababa [14]

The fluid that is being passed through the syringe and needle is incompressible, which means that it will transmit pressure equally. Therefore, the pressure on the plunger will be equivalent to the pressure on the needle. We also know that:

Pressure = Force / Area

Pressure on plunger = 4 / (π*(0.012/2)²)
Pressure on plunger = 35.4 kPa
Pressure on needle = 35.4 kPa

35.4 kPa = F / (4 / (π*(0.0025/2)²)
F = 0.17 N

The force on the needle is 0.17 N
