Answer:

16Hz

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Speed of sound = 400m/s

Wavelength = 25m

Unknown:

Frequency of the wave = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

V = F ∧

V is the velocity

F is the frequency

∧ is the wavelength

400 = F x 25

F = 16Hz

A circular sign has a diameter of 40 cm and is subjected to normal winds up to 150 km/h at 10°C and 100 kPa. Determine the drag

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

147.7 N

221.55 Nm

Explanation:

P = Pressure = 100000 Pa

$R_s$ = Mass-specific gas constant = 287.015 J/kg k

T = Temperature = 10+273 = 283 K

C = Drag coefficient = 1.1

A = Area

r = Radius = 0.2 m

v = Speed of wind = $\frac{150}{3.6}\ m/s$

L = Length of pole

Density

$\rho=\frac{P}{R_sT}\\\Rightarrow \rho=\frac{100000}{287.058\times 283}\\\Rightarrow \rho=1.2309\ kg/m^3$

Drag force

$F=\frac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.2309\times 1.1\times \left(\pi \times 0.2^2\right)\times \left(\frac{150}{3.6}\right)^2\\\Rightarrow F=147.7\ N$

Force on the circular sign is 147.7 N

$M=F\times L\\\Rightarrow M=147.7\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow M=221.55\ Nm$

Bending moment at the bottom of the pole is 221.55 Nm

Is distance traveled by a moving train qualitative discrete continuous or na?

butalik [34]

Continuous. Discrete values are values like 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. - they're values that are distinct, and typically there's some idea of a next and a previous value. When we're counting whole numbers, there's a definitive answer to which number comes after, and which number comes before. With continuous values, there's no real "next" or "last" value.

Motion is measured with continuous values; a train might move 300 yards in 1 minute, but we can look at smaller and smaller chunks of time to keep getting shorter and shorter distances. There is no "next" distance the train moves after those 300 yards - it just doesn't make sense for there to be.

It's also measured quantitatively, not qualitatively. This just means that we can use numerical values to measure it, rather than other descriptors like color, smell, or taste.

A factory has a solid copper sphere that needs to be drawn into a wire. The mass of the copper sphere is 76.5 kg. The copper nee

baherus [9]

Answer:

120.125 m

Explanation:

Density = Mass/volume

D = m/v .............................. Equation 1.

Where D = Density of the solid copper sphere, m = mass of the solid copper sphere, v = volume of the solid copper sphere.

Making v the subject of the equation,

v = m/D............................... Equation 2

Given: m = 76.5 kg,

Constant: D = 8960 kg/m .

Substituting into equation 2

v = 76.5/8960

v = 0.0085379 m³

Since the copper sphere is to be drawn into wire,

Volume of the copper sphere = volume of the wire

v = volume of the wire

Volume of wire = πd²L/4

Where d = diameter of the wire, L = length of the wire.

Note: A wire takes the shape of a cylinder.

v = πd²L/4 ........................ equation 3.

making L the subject of the equation,

L = 4v/πd²..................... Equation 4

Given: v = 0.0085379 m³, d = 9.50 mm = 0.0095 and π = 3.14

Substitute into equation 4

L = 4×0.0085379/(3.15×0.0095²)

L = 0.0341516/0.0002843

L = 120.125 m.

L = 120.125 m

Thus the length of the wire produced = 120.125 m

Nuclear winter story. A crazy president is trying to solve the global warming problem and has successfully built a powerful H-bo

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

A nuclear winter is a climatic phenomenon that would follow the detonation of several atomic bombs in the event that a nuclear war broke out. These bombs would cause firestorms that would raise smoke, dust and particles into the atmosphere that would end up in the stratosphere and eventually spread throughout the globe.

Explanation:

That idea is far fetched, because even though those same particles would absorb sunlight, it would raise the temperature in the stratosphere and cause a decrease in temperature in the Earth's layer. Unable to seep the sun's rays, many plant species would die and this would affect the entire food chain.

In addition, that temperature rise in the stratosphere would destroy part of the ozone layer, causing greater exposure to ultraviolet rays. This would end up affecting health and further damaging plant species.
