Answer:

Wave X has a shorter wavelength.

Explanation:

It is given that, two sound waves (wave X and wave Y) are moving through a medium at the same speed.

Speed of a wave is given by :

v=\nu\times \lambda

Where,

\nu is frequency

\lambda is wavelength

The relation between the frequency and the wavelength is inverse. Wave X has greater frequency than Y, then wave X has a shorter wavelength.

Hence, the correct option is (B) "has a shorter wavelength".

valina [46]

The centripetal force on the ball is 140.9 N; option A

<h3>What is the centripetal force on the ball?</h3>

The centripetal force on the ball is given by the formula below:

  • F = mv²/r

where;

  • m is mass
  • v is linear velocity
  • r is radius

The linear velocity, v = wr

v = 5 * 2π/4.4 * 1.4 = 9.93 m/s

F = 10² * 2/1.4 = 140.9 N

In conclusion, the centripetal force is derived from the mass, velocity and radius of the path.

Students asked to measure the temperature of a reaction beaker recorded the following temperatures. 103.7°C, 108.4°C, 105.8°C, 1
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The measurement which is the most precise is 104.6 °C.

Explanation:

The measurement which is most precise must be very close to the actual value of the temperature.

Thus, the unit which have less value of the |Δx| (error) must be most precise.

Thus,

Actual value = 105.1 °C

Value = 103.7 °C

<u>|Δx| = 1.4 °C</u>

Value = 108.4 °C

<u>|Δx| = 3.3 °C</u>

Value = 105.8 °C

<u>|Δx| = 0.7 °C</u>

Value = 104.6 °C

<u>|Δx| = 0.5 °C</u>

<u>Thus, The measurement which is the most precise is 104.6 °C.</u>

Why do we not consider the strong nuclear force when we describe the forces between atoms?
solong [7]

This is because, nuclear forces are short range forces.

The protons and neutrons are collectively called nucleons and they are found in the nucleus of an atom. These nucleons are held together by a strong attractive force called the nuclear force.

When atoms combine, they are held together by forces determined by electrons in the outermost shell. The influence of the nuclear force does not extend beyond the nucleus because they are short range forces.

Hence, we not consider the strong nuclear force when we describe the forces between atoms.

Is the acceleration due to gravity in projectile motion always negative? please explain
umka21 [38]
Before you start working on any motion problem, YOU decide which direction you're going to call 'positive'. Everybody almost always calls UP positive, and the acceleration of gravity points down, so it winds up negative. But you could just as well call DOWN the positive direction. Then, the cannonball is fired with a negative vertical speed, and the acceleration of gravity eventually robs all of its negative speed, and makes it start falling in the positive direction. The whole thing is your choice.
