In this experiment, three different tuning forks were used. If we assume that a percent error of 5% is acceptable in determining

the speed of sound, what can we conclude about the speed of sound depend on the frequency of the tuning fork?

In the experiment, you had three tuning forks of frequency:
f₁ = 512 Hz, f₂ = 480 Hz and f₃ = 426 Hz.

Through the experiment you were able to calculate the speed of sound, finding:
v₁ = 340 m/s, v₂ = 342 m/s and v₃ = 341 m/s.

The difference in these measurements is within the 5% error, therefore you can infer that the speed of sound is independent of the frequency of the tuning forks.

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Velocity of the passenger = 78.8[km/h]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must observe the train from a distant point of the train. In this way we can observe that the train moves at 80[km/h] relative to the ground.

In such a way that the passenger moves in a direction contrary to the movement of the train.

v_{pass}=80-1.2\\ v_{pass}=78.8[km/h]

The Observer located outside the train will see how the passenger moves away at 78.8 [km / h] and not at 80[km/h] which is the speed of the train.

34kurt

Answer:

It regulates the movement of proteins and RNAs into and out of the nucleus

Explanation:

The nuclear pore complex are protein channels connecting the outer membrane of the nucleus to the inner membrane of the nucleus. They securely regulates the almost all of the transport of protein and RNAs into and out of the nucleus.

The equation NaCl →Na +Cl is a ______ reaction. A. decomposition B. single displacement C. synthesis
Citrus2011 [14]
The correct answer is (a.) decomposition. The equation NaCl --> Na + Cl is a decomposition reaction. That is because the synthesis reaction looks like this Na + Cl = NaCl, and is the opposite of the decomposition. The decomposition reaction is the chemical reaction in which a single compound break into new compounds.

What type of bond is formed if atoms donate electrons to other atoms when the elements are combined?
natita [175]
Ionic bond.

In the ionic bond one atom loses one or more electrons, leaving the atom with positive charge, and the other atom accepts those electrons standing with negative charge.
