A student using a tuning fork of frequency 512 Hz observes that the speed of sound is 340.0 m/s. What is the wavelength of this

sound wave
Physics
1 answer:
Romashka [77]3 years ago
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

A jet plane is launched from a catapult on an aircraft carrier. In 2.0 s it reaches a speed of 42 m/s at the end of the catapult
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

time taken t=2\ s

Speed acquired in 2 sec v=42\ m/s

Here initial velocity is zero u=0

acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in a given time

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

a=\frac{42-0}{2}=21\ m/s^2

Distance travel in this time

s=ut+0.5at^2

where  

s=displacement

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

s=0+\0.5\times 21\times (2)^2

s=42\ m

so Jet Plane travels a distance of 42 m in 2 s

A capacitor of capacitance C has charge Q and stored energy is U if the charge is increased to 2Q then energy will be A)4U B)2U
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

2u

Explanation:

2u

W = Vq

q = CV

W = V.CV

W = CV²

W/C = V²

V = √(W/C)

√(W1/C1) = √(W2/C2)

√(u/c) = √(x/2c)

x = 2u

Why is it important that radioisotopes used in diagnostic tests have short half-lives? 20 A) These radioisotopes have a greater
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Option B) This minimizes the harmful side effects of the radiations

Explanation:

Half-life is the time taken for the decay of an radio-active atom in which it disintegrates such that it becomes half of its value at the beginning.... The nuclei should be in active mode for a longer duration sufficient for the treatment of the condition but these nuclei should have a sufficient  shorter half life so that they don't get enough time to cause any  damage to the health of the person other than treating the cause.

A shorter half life gives the assurance that the radiation after the treatment will leave the body without getting accumulated and cause harm to the body cells and other organs.

Which statement correctly describes the motion of water particles due to the action of waves?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

C True.  they rise and fall in a circular motion

Explanation:

The movement of water waves in the sea is described by a simple harmonic movement where the water droplets, which are the material particles of the movement oscillate up and down and the wave that is the energy of the movement travels perpendicular to it.

With this let's review the claims

A False

B False

C True.

D False
