Answer: 60m/s

Explanation:

The wavespeed is the distance covered by the wave in one second. It is measured in metre per second, and represented by the symbol V

Wavespeed (V) = Frequency F x wavelength λ

i.e V = F λ

In the first case:

Wavespeed = 30 m/s

Frequency of sound = 6Hz

Wavelength = 5m

In the second case:

Wavespeed = ?

Frequency of sound = (2x 6Hz = 12Hz)

Wavelength = 5m (remains constant)

Apply V = F λ

Wavespeed = 12 Hz x 5m

Wavespeed = 60m/s

Therefore, when frequency is doubled, the speed is also doubled. Thus, the new speed of the wave is 60m/s

How would you find the total energy stored in the
likoan [24]

Answer:

The energy of the capacitors connected in parallel is 0.27 J

Given:

C = 2.0\micro F = 2.0\times 10^{- 6} F

C' = 4.0\micro F = 4.0\times 10^{- 6} F

Potential difference, V = 300 V

Solution:

Now, we know that the equivalent capacitance of the two parallel connected capacitors is given by:

C_{eq} = C + C' = 2.0 + 4.0 = 6.0\micro F = 6.0\times 10^{- 6} F

The energy of the capacitor, E is given by;

E = \frac{1}{2}C_{eq}V^{2}

E = \frac{1}{2}\times 6.0\times 10^{- 6}\times 300^{2} = 0.27 J

A small object carrying a charge of -4.00 nC is acted upon by a downward force of 24.0 nN when placed at a certain point in an e
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

E  = -6 \  N/C

Generally given that the electric field is negative it mean that its direction is opposite to that of the force    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The charge on the small object is Q = -4.00 \ nC =  -4.00 *10^{-9} \  C

   The force is  F  =  24  \ nN  =  24 *10^{-9} \  N

    Generally the magnitude of the electric  field is mathematically represented as

       E  =  \frac{F}{Q}

=>    E  =  \frac{ 24 *10^{-9}} {-4 *10^{-9 }}

=>     E  = -6 \  N/C

Generally given that the electric field is negative it mean that its direction is opposite to that of the force

Match the following:
joja [24]

Explanation:

1. study of conversion of heat to mechanics → thermodynamics

A branch of physical science which deals with heat and other forms of energy.

2. The Law of Conservation of Energy  → first Law of Thermodynamics

Energy cannot be created nor be destroyed. According to first law of thermodynamics total energy of the system is always constant.

3. Result of applied energy  → work

Work is the way of system to release its energy.

4. Principle that states that in any energy transformation some energy is dissipated as heat  → Second Law of Thermodynamics

5. energy of motion  → kinetic energy

Kinetic energy is defined as energy possessed by the body due to its motion.

6. work/displacement  → force

Work is product of force and displacement.

Work=Force \times displacement

Force=\frac{Work}{displacement}

7. power · time  → energy

Power is defined energy per unit time.

Power=\frac{Energy}{Time}

Energy=Power\times Time

8. Device that transforms heat energy into mechanical energy →  heat engine

heat engine is a device which converts the heat energy which is released due to combustion of fuel into a useful work that is mechanical energy.

9 . Energy due to position  → potential energy

Potential energy is defined as energy possessed by the body due to its position.

10. efficiency of a heat engine unit of heat  → calorie

11. Measure of molecular motion  → Temperature

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to temperature.

Greater the motion more will be the kinetic energy and with more will be the temperature.

12. Heat given off by a liquid with no change in temperature  → latent heat of fusion

Latent heat of fusion is defined as heat released by 1 mole of substance when it under goes phase change that is from solid to liquid.

13. Motion within solids  → vibrational motion

Vibrational motion is the motion in which particle oscillates from its mean position.

14. Phase of matter on the sun → plasma

Plasma is hot ionized gas with equal number of positive and negative ions. Due to high temperature of sun most the gas are in the plasma state.
