5 0

Answer:

0.066m

Explanation:

Step one:

given

frequency =512 Hz

The speed of sound is 340.0 m/s.

Required

The wavelength

Step two:

the formula for wavelength is

$v=f \lambda$

$\lambda= v/f$

substitute the given data

$\lambda= 340/514\\\\\lambda= 0.66m$

Given that average speed is distance traveled divided by time, determine the values of m and n when the time it takes a beam of

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

$5,2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Speed of light $C=3.0×10^8 m/s.$

Generally the equation for Average Speed is mathematically given by

$V_{avg}=\frac{d}{t}$

Where

d=Distance between the Earth and the sun

$d=1.5*10^11m$

Therefore

$t=\frac{d}{V_{avg}}$

$t=\frac{1.5*10^11m}{3.0×10^8 m/s.}$

$t=5*10^2s$

Since m and n is given in the form of

$m*10^n$

Therefore

$m=5 & n=2$

$5,2$

Read the scenario. A car travels 25 m/s forward for 10 s. Which option accurately identifies the measurements within the scenari

Phantasy [73]

Explanation:

It is given that,

A car travels 25 m/s forward for 10 s.

Solution,

For a vector, a quantity must have both magnitude as well as the direction. For a scalar, a quantity have only the magnitude. In this case, the car moves in forward direction. This is the only difference between the vector and the scalar.

Out of given option,s the correct option is (c) "The measurement 25 m/s is the only vector quantity because it is a measurement of speed".

To test the quality of a tennis ball, you drop it onto the floor from a height of 4.00 m. It rebounds to a height of 2.00 m. If

arlik [135]

Answer:

Part a)

$a = 1260.3 m/s^2$

Part b)

Direction = upwards

Explanation:

When ball is dropped from height h = 4.0 m

then the speed of the ball just before it will strike the ground is given as

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$v_1^2 - 0^2 = 2(9.81)(4.0)$

$v_1 = 8.86 m/s$

Now ball will rebound to height h = 2.00 m

so the velocity of ball just after it will rebound is given as

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$0 - v_2^2 = 2(-9.81)(2.00)$

$v_2 = 6.26 m/s$

Part a)

Average acceleration is given as

$a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{\Delta t}$

$a = \frac{6.26 - (-8.86)}{12.0 \times 10^{-3}}$

$a = 1260.35 m/s^2$

Part B)

As we know that ball rebounds upwards after collision while before collision it is moving downwards

So the direction of the acceleration is vertically upwards
