Answer:

The speed of sound in air when the temperature is 20°C is 343 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Temperature T = 20°C = 20+273=293 K

The speed of sound in air is the distance traveled divided by time.

We know that,

The relation between the speed of sound in air and temperature is defined as:

$v= 331\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{273}}$

Where, T = temperature in Kelvin

v = speed of sound in air

We substitute the value into the formula

$v = 331\sqrt{\dfrac{293}{273}}$

$v = 342.9 = 343\ m/s$

The speed of sound in air is 331 m/s at 0° C, 343 m/s at 20°C and 346 m/s at 25°C.

Hence, the speed of sound in air when the temperature is 20°C is 343 m/s.

The peak magnetic field of the electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum is 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T.

<h3>Relationship between electric and magnetic field</h3>

The relationship between electric and magnetic field at a given peak electric field is given as;

c = (E₀) / (B₀)

where;

c is speed of light
E₀ is the peak electric field
B₀ is the peak magnetic field

B₀ = E₀ / c

B₀ = (2.9) / (3 x 10⁹)

B₀ = 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T

Thus, the peak magnetic field of the electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum is 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T.

What is a stream’s discharge rate if it has a width of 10 meters, a depth of 2 meters, and a velocity of 2 meters per second?

julia-pushkina [17]

A stream’s discharge rate if it has a width of 10 meters, a depth of 2 meters, and a velocity of 2 meters per second will be 40 $m^{3}$ /sec .

Discharge rate = velocity * area

= velocity * depth * width

= 2 * 2 * 10 = 40 $m^{3}$ /sec

A stream’s discharge rate if it has a width of 10 meters, a depth of 2 meters, and a velocity of 2 meters per second will be 40 $m^{3}$ /sec .

A train has an initial velocity of 44m/s and an accelaration of _4m/s calculate its velocity

Kobotan [32]

Complete question:

A train has an initial velocity of 44m/s and an acceleration of -4m/s². calculate its velocity after 10s ?

Answer:

the final velocity of the train is 4 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the train, u = 44 m/s

acceleration of the train, a = -4m/s² (the negative sign shows that the train is decelerating)

time of motion, t = 10 s

let the final velocity of the train = v

The final velocity of the train is calculated using the following kinematic equation;

v = u + at

v = 44 + (-4 x 10)

v = 44 - 40

v = 4 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the train is 4 m/s.

Makovka662 [10]

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (total time to cover the distance)

   = (2,742 km) / (4.33 hours)

   = (2,742 / 4.33) km/hr

   = 633 km/hr (rounded)
