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.

Which of the following is true about light?
ale4655 [162]
Light travels in waves AND in bundles called "photons".

It's hard to imagine something that's a wave and also a bundle.
But it turns out that light behaves like both waves and bundles.

If you design an experiment to detect waves, then it responds to light.

And if you design an experiment to detect 'bundles' or particles, then
that one also responds to light.

A satellite is in a circular orbit about the earth (ME = 5.98 x 10^24 kg). The period of the satellite is 1.26 x 10^4 s. What is
Soloha48 [4]

Answer: V=5839.051m/s  

Explanation:

According to the <u>Third Kepler’s Law</u> of Planetary motion:

T^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}a^{3}   (1)

Where;:

T=1.26(10)^{4}s is the period of the satellite

G is the Gravitational Constant and its value is 6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}

M=5.98(10)^{24}kg is the mass of the Earth

a  is the semimajor axis of the orbit the satllite describes around the Earth (as we know it is a circular orbit, the semimajor axis is equal to the radius of the orbit).

On the other hand, the orbital velocity V is given by:

V=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{a}}   (2)

Now, from (1) we can find a, in order to substitute this value in (2):

a=\sqrt[3]{\frac{T^{2}GM}{4\pi}^{2}}   (3)

a=\sqrt[3]{\frac{(1.26(10)^{4}s)^{2}(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.98(10)^{24}kg)}{4\pi}^{2}}   (4)

a=11705845.57m   (5)

Substituting (5) in (2):

V=\sqrt{\frac{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.98(10)^{24}kg)}{11705845.57m}}   (6)

V=5839.051m/s   (7)  This is the speed at which the satellite travels

As players speed up, their kinetic energy will?
igomit [66]
Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed. So when anything or anybody speeds up, its kinetic energy increases.
