Answer:

Mechanical Waves

Explanation:Sound waves in air are longitudinal waves because particles of the medium through which the sound is transported vibrate parallel to the direction that the sound wave moves. A vibrating string can create longitudinal waves.

You weigh 730N. What would you weigh if the earth were six times as massive as it is and its radius were four times its present

Ber [7]

The new weight is 273.8 N

Explanation:

The weight of an object on Earth is given by

$W=mg$

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

The acceleration of gravity at the Earth's surface can be rewritten as

$g=\frac{GM}{R^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

R is the Earth's radius

Substituting into the previous equation,

$W=\frac{GMm}{R^2}$

We said that in normal conditions, the weight of the person is 730 N:

$W=\frac{GMm}{R^2}=730 N$

Later, we are said that:

The mass of the Earth increases by a factor of 6, $M'=6M$
The radius of the Earth increases by a factor of 4, $R'=4R$

Substituting into the equation, we find the new weight of the person in these conditions:

$W'=\frac{G(6M)m}{(4R)^2}=\frac{6}{16}(\frac{GMm}{R^2})=\frac{3}{8}W$

So, the new weight is 3/8 of the original weight, therefore:

$W'=\frac{3}{8}(730)=273.8 N$

A balloon holds 20.0 L of helium at 10 degree Celsius. If the temperature doubles, and the pressure does not change, what will b

Natali [406]

To solve this we assume that the gas inside the balloon is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant pressure and number of moles of the gas the ratio T/V is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

T1 / V1 = T2 / V2

V2 = T2 x V1 / T1

V2 = 2 x 20.0/ 1

The speed of sound in dry air at 20 °C is 343.5 m s-1, and the frequency of the sound from the note C# above middle C on the pia

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

1.23917 m

0.14323 s

Explanation:

v = Speed of sound in dry air at 20 °C = 343.5 m/s

f = Frequency of note C# = 277.2 /s = 277.2 Hz

λ = Wavelength

$v=f\lambda\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{343.5}{277.2}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=1.23917\ m$

Wavelength = 1.23917 m

Distance the wave needs to travel is 49.2 m

Time = Distance / Speed

$\text{Time}=\frac{49.2}{343.5}=0.14323\ s$

Time taken for the sound to travel across the concert hall is 0.14323 s
