The current is defined as the ratio between the charge Q flowing through a certain point of a wire and the time interval, \Delta t:
I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}
First we need to find the net charge flowing at a certain point of the wire in one second, \Delta t=1.0 s. Using I=0.92 A and re-arranging the previous equation, we find
Q=I \Delta t= (0.92 A)(1.0 s)=0.92 C

Now we know that each electron carries a charge of e=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C, so if we divide the charge Q flowing in the wire by the charge of one electron, we find the number of electron flowing in one second:
N= \frac{Q}{q} = \frac{0.92 C}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C}=5.75 \cdot 10^{18}

1).  The equation is: (speed) = (frequency) x (wavelength)

Speed = (256 Hz) x (1.3 m) = 332.8 meters per second

 2).  If the instrument is played louder, the amplitude of the waves increases.
On the oscilloscope, they would appear larger from top to bottom, but the
horizontal size of each wave doesn't change.

If the instrument is played at a higher pitch, then the waves become shorter,
because 'pitch' is directly related to the frequency of the waves, and higher
pitch means higher frequency and more waves in any period of time.

If the instrument plays louder and at higher pitch, the waves on the scope
become taller and there are more of them across the screen.

3).  The equation is:  Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)
(Notice that this is exactly the same as the equation up above in question #1,
only with each side of that one divided by 'wavelength'.)

Frequency = 300,000,000 meters per second / 1,500 meters = 200,000 per second.

That's ' 200 k Hz ' .

Note:
I didn't think anybody broadcasts at 200 kHz, so I looked up BBC Radio 4
on-line, and I was surprised.  They broadcast on several different frequencies,
and one of them is 198 kHz !

What is the impulse of a 3kg object accelerating from rest to 12m/s?
ale4655 [162]
To find the impulse you multiply the mass by the change in velocity (impulse=mass×Δvelocity). So in this case, 3 kg × 12 m/s ("12" because the object went from zero m/s to 12 m/s).

The answer is 36 kg m/s

The CORRECT answer would be false. They are different and so therefore the answer is false.
