To answer the question above, 
First, let's determine the speed of sound under the water.
S
peed of sound in water at 20oC = 1482m/s 

<span>So λ = v/f = 1482m/s/(100kHz) I'm assuming your frequency is 100kHz </span>

<span>So λ would be = 0.0148m
I hope my answer helped you.</span>

The concentration of sodium and potassium ions in the blood and body fluid is regulated by :
Liula [17]

Answer:

Kidney

Explanation:

One of the main function of the kidney is to maintain the homeostasis of sodium and potassium ions in the blood and body.

Aldosterone is a key steroid hormone that balances sodium and potassium ions in the blood and body fluid. Potassium and sodium ions generate electric impulse in the body which helps to perform different activities such as muscles flexing.

Kidney function for reabsorption and secretion, in which reabsorption of Na is done nd balances the sodium and potassium in the blood and body.

A bicycle has a momentum of 23.4
Snowcat [4.5K]
  • Momentum=23.4kgm/s
  • Velocity=2m/s

\\ \rm\longmapsto Momentum=Mass\times velocity

\\ \rm\longmapsto Mass=\dfrac{Momentum}{Velocity}

\\ \rm\longmapsto Mass=\dfrac{23.4}{2}

\\ \rm\longmapsto Mass=11.7kg

At the moment a hot cake is put in a cooler, the difference between the cakes and the cooler's
hram777 [196]

Answer: D(t)= 50(4/5)^t

Explanation: If 1/5 of the temperature difference is lost each minute, that means 4/5 of the difference remains each minute. So each minute, the temperature difference is multiplied by a factor of 4/5 (or 0.8).

If we start with the initial temperature difference, 50° Celsius, and keep multiplying by 4/5, this function gives us the temperature difference t minutes after the cake was put in the cooler.

stephen buys a new moped . he travels 4km south and then 6km east. how far does he need to go to get back where he started??
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

My answer is 7.2 km

Explanation:

When Stephen goes to the south and then to the east, he is drawing a right triangle, where the 4 km and 6 km sides are the cathetus of a right triangle.

Then we use the Pithagorean theorem to solve this problem. We need to find the hypotenuse.

c² = a² + b²

c² = 4² + 6²

c² = 16 + 36

c² = 52

c = 7.2 km

Will mark brainliest! Please help!
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

30 seconds

Explanation:

A = A02^-(t/hl)

--> ln(A/A0) = -(t/hl)ln2

solving for hl,

hl = -t x ln2 /ln(A/A0)

= -(60 min)xln2/ln(50/200)

= 0.5 min or 30 seconds
