answer:

6 ohms

Explanation:

if these two resistors are connected in series, the total resistance is the sum: 2+4 = 6 (ohms)

A bird flew 16 km west in 5 hours , then flew 20 km east in 6 hours . What was the birds velocity?

LenaWriter [7]

During that period of time, the bird's displacement was 4 km east. So its velocity was (4km east)/(11hrs). That's 0.36 km/hour east. (rounded)

A proton has been accelerated from rest through a potential difference of -1000 v . part a what is the proton's kinetic energy,

wlad13 [49]

We can apply the law of conservation of energy here. The total energy of the proton must remain constant, so the sum of the variation of electric potential energy and of kinetic energy of the proton must be zero:
$\Delta U + \Delta K=0$
which means
$\Delta K = - \Delta U$
The variation of electric potential energy is equal to the product between the charge of the proton (q=1eV) and the potential difference ( $\Delta V=-1000 V$ ):
$\Delta U = q \Delta V=(1 eV)(-1000 V)=-1000 eV$
Therefore, the kinetic energy gained by the proton is
$\Delta K = -(-1000 eV)=1000 eV$
<span>And since the initial kinetic energy of the proton was zero (it started from rest), then this 1000 eV corresponds to the final kinetic energy of the proton.</span>

The heat capacity of 0.125Kg of water is measured to be 523j/k at a room temperature.Hence, calculate the heat capacity of water

Naily [24]

Answer:

A. 4148 J/K/Kg

B. 4148 J/K/L

Explanation:

A. Heat capacity per unit mass is known as the specific heat capacity, c.

C = Heat capacity/mass(kg)

C = (523 J/K) / 0.125 Kg = 4148 J/K/Kg

B. Volume of water = mass/density

Density of water = 1 Kg/L

Volume of water = 0.125 Kg/ 1Kg/L

Volume of water = 0.125 L

Heat capacity per unit volume = (523 J/K) / 0.125 L

Heat capacity per unit volume = 4148 J/K/L

A flute is designed so that it plays a frequency of 261.6 Hz, middle C, when all the holes are covered and the temperature is 20

irinina [24]

Answer:

0.655 m

13.468°C

Explanation:

v = Speed of sound at 20.0°C = 343 m/s (general value)

For one both end open we have the expression

$L=\dfrac{\lambda_1}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=\dfrac{\dfrac{v}{f_1}}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=\dfrac{\dfrac{343}{261.6}}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=0.655581039755\ m$

The length of the flute is 0.655 m

Beat frequency is given by

$\Delta f=f_1-f_2\\\Rightarrow 3=261.6-f_2\\\Rightarrow f_2=261.6-3\\\Rightarrow f_2=258.6\ Hz$

Velocity of the wave is

$v=f_2\lambda_1\\\Rightarrow v=258.6\times \dfrac{343}{261.6}\\\Rightarrow v=339.066513761\ m/s$

The temperature is given by

$T=273(\dfrac{v}{331})^2\\\Rightarrow T=273(\dfrac{339.066513761}{331})^2\\\Rightarrow T=286.468227799\ K=286.468227799-273=13.468227799^{\circ}C$

The temperature of the room is 13.468°C
