sdas [7]3 years ago

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.

Estimates show that the total energy output of the sun is 5 × 1026 j/s. what is the corresponding loss in kg/s of the sun?
Anika [276]

Estimated total energy output IN ONE SECOND = 5 x 10²⁶ Joules .

Energy = mass · c²  ( Albrecht Einshtein)

c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

c² = 9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²

5 x 10²⁶ Joules = mass · (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)

mass = (5 x 10²⁶ Joules) / (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)

mass =  (5 x 10²⁶) / (9 x 10¹⁶)   kg

mass =  (0.55... x 10¹⁰) kg

<em>mass = 5.55... x 10⁹ kilograms</em>

Look at that for a second.  Then think about it for another second.

It's telling us that at its present rate of energy output, the sun is losing more than 5 and a half Billion kilograms of mass every second.  And when we read other things about the sun, they say that the sun is expected to continue doing what it's doing for another 4 or 5 Billion years !

Gives ya some idea of the size and mass of the Sun, doesn't it !

You move a 75-kg box 35 m. This requires a force of 90 N. How much work is done while moving the box?
KiRa [710]
We Know, W = F * s
Here, F = 90 N
s = 35 m

Substitute it into expression,
W = 90 * 35
W = 3150 Joules

So, your final answer is 3150 Joules.

Hope this helps!

While standing at home plate, a batter swung a 2.5kg bat at 2.5 m/s toward an incoming mass. The mass was a 0.4 kg blob of clay,
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

5.74 m/s

Explanation:

m1v1+m2v2=(m1+m2)*vf

2.5*2.5+0.4*26=(2.9)vf

16.65=2.9vf

vf=5.74 m/s

A light wave has a 670 nm wavelength in air. Its wavelength in a transparent solid is 420 nm.? What is the speed of light in thi
attashe74 [19]
The frequency of a beam of light does not change as it passes from a medium to another, only its wavelength and speed are affected. The experimental speed of light in air is:
3  * 10^8 m/s
Therefore, the frequency of this beam of light is:
v = fλ; where v is speed, f is frequency, and λ is the wavelength. The frequency thus is:
3×10⁸ / (670 × 10⁻⁹) = 4.48 × 10¹⁴ Hz
The frequency will remain the same in the solid medium
The speed will then become:
4.48 × 10¹⁴ × 420 × 10⁻⁹ = 1.88 × 10⁸ meters per second
