The speed of sound is 346 m/s. If a sound wave travels at a frequency of 55 Hz, what would its wavelength be?

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

6.29 meters.

Explanation:

, where v is the speed of wave and f is the frequency of wave.

We are given that ,

The speed of sound is 346 m/s.

i..e v=346 m/s

A sound wave travels at a frequency of 55 H.

i..e f=55

the wavelength would be 6.29 meters.

If the caffeine concentration in a particular brand of soda is 2.97 mg/oz, 2.97 mg/oz, drinking how many cans of soda would be l

Ray Of Light [21]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Concentration of caffeine = 2.97 mg/oz

Number of oz in a can = 12 oz

Therefore, the concentration of caffeine in one can is calculated as follows.

= $(12 \times 2.97)$ mg

= 35.64 mg

= $35.64 \times 10^{-3} g$

Since, it is given that lethal dose is 10.0 g. Hence, number of cans are calculated as follows.

No. of cans = $\frac{\text{Lethal dose}}{\text{concentration in one can}}$

= $\frac{10 g}{35.64 \times 10^{-3} g}$

= 280.58

= 281 (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that 281 cans of soda would be lethal.

The sun is the ___________ of all the energy that moves though food

Marta_Voda [28]

The sun is the <em><u>source</u></em> of all the energy that moves through food. It helps the plants to grow which in turn become food that we and other animals eat.

Hope it helps :)

Suppose the ball is thrown from the same height as in the PRACTICE IT problem at an angle of 32.0°below the horizontal. If it st

scoray [572]

The figure of the problem is missing: find in attachment.

(a) 1.64 s

The ball follows a projectile motion path. The horizontal displacement is given by

$x(t) = v_0 cos \theta t$

where

$v_0$ is the initial speed

t is the time

$\theta=32.0^{\circ}$ is the angle below the horizontal

We can rewrite this equation as

$t=\frac{x(t)}{v_0 cos \theta}$ (1)

The vertical displacement instead is given by

$y(t) = -v_0 sin \theta t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$ (2)

where

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

Substituting (1) into (2),

$y(t) = -x(t) tan \theta - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

We know that for t = time of flight, the horizontal displacement is

$x(t) =50.8 m$

We also know that the vertical displacement is

$y(t) = -45 m$

Substituting everything into the equation, we can find the time of flight:

$\frac{1}{2}gt^2=-y -x tan \theta\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2(-y-xtan \theta)}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(-(-45)-50.8 tan 32.0^{\circ})}{9.8}}=1.64 s$

(b) 36.5 m/s

We can now find the initial speed directly by using the equation for the horizontal displacement:

$x(t) = v_0 cos \theta t$

where we have

x = 50.8 m

$\theta=32.0^{\circ}$

Substituting the time of flight,

t = 1.64 s

We find:

$v_0 = \frac{x}{t cos \theta}=\frac{50.8}{(1.64)(cos 32.0^{\circ})}=36.5 m/s$

(c) 47.1 m/s at 48.8 degrees below the horizontal

As the ball follows a projectile motion, its horizontal velocity does not change, so its value remains equal to

$v_x = v_0 cos \theta = (36.5)(cos 32.0^{\circ})=31.0 m/s$

The initial vertical velocity is instead

$u_y = -v_0 sin \theta = -(36.5)(sin 32.0^{\circ})=-19.3 m/s$

And it changes according to the equation

$v_y = u_y -gt$

So at t = 1.64 s (when the ball hits the ground),

$v_y = -19.3 - (9.8)(1.64)=-35.4 m/s$

So the impact speed is:

$v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{(31.0)^2+(-35.4)^2}=47.1 m/s$

While the direction is:

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{v_y}{v_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{-35.4}{31.0})=-48.8^{\circ}$

A nonconducting spherical shell, with an inner radius of 4 cm and an outer radius of 6 cm, has charge spread nonuniformly throug

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

$1.57 * 10^{3} Q$

Explanation:

The volume charge density is defined by ρ = $\frac{Q}{V}$ (Equation A), where Q is the charge and V, the volume.

The units in the S.I. are $\frac{Coulombs}{m^{3} }$ , so we have to express the radius in meters:

inner radius = $4 cm * \frac{1 m}{100 cm} = 0.04m$

outer radius = $6 cm * \frac{1m}{100cm} = 0.06m$

Now, we know that the volume of the sphere is calculated by the formula:

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$ , and as we have an spherical shell, the volume is calculated by the difference between the outher and inner spheres:

V = $\frac{4}{3}\pi (r_{o} ^{3} - r_{i} ^{3})$ , where $r_{o}$ is the outer radius and $r_{i}$ is the inner radius.

Replacing the volume formula in the Equation A:

ρ = $\frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi(r^{3} _{o}-r_{i} ^{3})}$

ρ = $\frac{3Q}{4\pi (r_{o} ^{3}-r_{i} ^{3} ) }$

Replacing the values of the outer and inner radius whe have:

ρ = $\frac{3Q}{4\pi (1.52 * 10^{-4})}$

ρ = $1.57 * 10^{3} Q$
