To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to wavelength as a function of speed and frequency. In mathematical terms it can be expressed as

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

Where,

v = Velocity

f = Frequency

According to our values the frequency (f) is 320Hz and the speed (v) is 339m / s.

Replacing in the given equation we have to,

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}\\\lambda = \frac{339}{320}\\\lambda = 1.059m\approx 1.06m

Therefore the wavelength of this sound wave is 1.06m

An object initially at rest experiences an acceleration of 0.281 m/s2 to the South for a time of 5.44 seconds. It then increases
andre [41]

Answer:

12.0 meters

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a₁ = 0.281 m/s²

t₁ = 5.44 s

a₂ = 1.43 m/s²

t₂ = 2.42 s

Find: x

First, find the velocity reached at the end of the first acceleration.

v = at + v₀

v = (0.281 m/s²) (5.44 s) + 0 m/s

v = 1.53 m/s

Next, find the position reached at the end of the first acceleration.

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = 0 m + (0 m/s) (5.44 s) + ½ (0.281 m/s²) (5.44 s)²

x = 4.16 m

Finally, find the position reached at the end of the second acceleration.

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = 4.16 m + (1.53 m/s) (2.42 s) + ½ (1.43 m/s²) (2.42 s)²

x = 12.0 m

Suppose you fill two rubber balloons with air, suspend both of them from the same point, and let them hang down on strings of eq
Ulleksa [173]

The charge on each the balloon is 100nC or 1.2 × 10^-7 C

Consider two balloons of diameter 0.200m each with a mass of 1.00g hanging apart with 0.0500m separation on the ends of string making angles of 10.0° with the vertical.

The charge on each balloon can be found from

F_{e} = \frac{k_{e}q^{2} }{r^{2}} \\q = \sqrt{\frac{k_{e}q^{2} }{r^{2}}} \\\\q = \sqrt{\frac{(2\times10^{-3N}(0.25m)^{2}}{8.99\times10^{9}N\cdotm^{2}/C^{2}}\\

q = 1.2\times10^{-7}C or 100nC

An electric charge is the property of matter where it has more or fewer electrons than protons in its atoms. Electrons carry a negative charge and protons carry a positive charge. The matter is positively charged if it contains more protons than electrons and negatively charged if it contains more electrons than protons.
