A sound wave is passing by a student 250 times every second. What is the frequency of the sound wave?

My answer i believe is simply 250 Hz, because sounds or vibrations travel in 1 cycle/second, meaning the number of cycles, in your case 250, divided by the time,1 second, will ultimately be 250 Hertz. For every Cycle/second it will equal 1 Hz, so 250/1 = 250Hz

My answer is 250 Hz I believe this would be the answer because, its passing by the student 250 times a second.Though I might be wrong so please don't quote me on this if I am wrong.

Synchronous communications satellites are placed in a circular orbit that is 3.59 107 m above the surface of the earth. What is

suter [353]

Answer: $0.223 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

We can solve this with the Law of Universal Gravitation and knowing the acceleration due gravity $g$ of an object above the surface of the planet decreases with the distance (height) of this object from the center of the planet.

Well, according to the law of universal gravitation:

$F=G\frac{m_{E}m}{r^2}$ (1)

Where:

$F$ is the module of the force exerted between both bodies

$G=6.67(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}$ is the gravitational constant

$m_{E}=5.98(10)^{24} kg$ is the mass of the Earth

$m$ are the mass of each communications satellite

$r=R_{E}+h$ is the distance between the center of the Earth and the satellite

$R_{E}=6.38(10)^{6} m$ is the radius of the Earth

$h=3.59(10)^{7} m$ is the height of the satellite, measured from the Earth's surface

On the other hand, we know according to <u>Newton's 2nd law of motion:</u>

$F=mg$ (2)

Combining (1) and (2):

$G\frac{m_{E}m}{r^2}=mg$ (3)

Isolating $g$ :

$g=\frac{G M_{E}}{r^2}$ (4)

Remembering $r=R_{E}+h$ :

$g=\frac{G M_{E}}{(R_{E}+h)^2}$ (5)

$g=\frac{(6.67(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.98(10)^{24} kg)}{(6.38(10)^{6} m+3.59(10)^{7} m)^2}$

Finally:

$g=0.223 m/s^{2}$

What part of the electromagnetic spectrum do you think is most important and why?

KonstantinChe [14]

Radio waves, gamma-rays, visible light, and all the other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic radiation can be described in terms of a stream of mass-less particles, ...

The electromagnetic spectrum is a map of all the types of light that we can identify. It separates all the types of light by wavelength because that directly relates to how energetic the wave is. More energetic wave

For most of history, visible light was the only known part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The ancient Greeks recognized that light traveled in straight lines and studied some of its properties, including reflection

A marble rolls 269cm across the floor with a constant speed of in 44.1cm/s.

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

t = 6.09 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed, v = 44.1 cm/s

Distance, d = 269 cm

We need to find the time interval of the marble. Speed is distance per unit time.

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\\implies t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{269\ \text{cm}}{44.1\ \text{cm/s}}\\\\t=6.09\ s$

Hence, the time interval of the marble is 6.09 seconds.

While standing on a balcony a child drops a penny. The penny lands on the ground floor 1.5 s later. How fast was the penny trave

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

14.7 m/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time (t) = 1.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s².

Height = 11.025 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity (u) =?

We, can obtain the initial velocity of the penny as follow:

H = ½(v + u) t

11.025 = ½ (0 + u) × 1.5

11.025 = ½ × u × 1.5

11.025 = u × 0.75

Divide both side by 0.75

u = 11.025/0.75

u = 14.7 m/s

Therefore, the penny was travelling at 14.7 m/s before hitting the ground.
