Let the ball is initially at point P1. Finally it reaches at point P2.( bottom most). Since only conservative force is acting on the ball throughout the motion, mechanical energy will be conserved. Therefore conserving energy from P1 to P2, Initially ball is at rest(P1). So initial kinetic energy is 0. Let ball is at height h1 initially, so initial potential energy = mgh ( m= mass of the ball). At bottom most point (P2), potential energy of ball changes into kinetic energy. So final kinetic energy =1/2 mv^2. Final potential energy = 0. Equating energies at P1 and P2, Mgh= 1/2 mv^2. Therefore, v= (2gh)^1/2. Since all the initial and final points are at same height, velocity will be same for all the paths(irrespective of the path taken by ball). So velocity will be same.

While bats emit a wide variety of sounds, one type emits pulses of sound at a frequency between 39 kHz and 78 kHz. What is the r
sdas [7]

Answer:

The range of wavelengths of the sound is 7692.30 m and 3846.15 m

Explanation:

A bat emits pulses of sound at a frequency between 39 kHz and 78 kHz. It is required to find the range of wavelengths of this sound.

Bat uses ultrasonic waves. It moves with the speed of light.

If f = 39 kHz,

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{39\times 10^3}\\\\\lambda=7692.30\ m

If f = 78 kHz,

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{78\times 10^3}\\\\\lambda=3846.15\ m

So, the range of wavelengths of the sound is 7692.30 m and 3846.15 m.
