Answer:

The correct choice is

A) the sound waves were pushed closer together.

Explanation:

As the ambulance gets closer, the distance between the ambulance and marge decreases and so does the wavelength of the siren observed by marge. As the wavelength decrease and speed remains the same for the siren, the frequency of the siren increases because wavelength, frequency and speed are related as

Frequency = Speed/wavelength

Clearly, the frequency is inversely related to wavelength.

n deep space, sphere A of mass 47 kg is located at the origin of an x axis and sphere B of mass 110 kg is located on the axis at

Volgvan

Answer:

a)-1.014x $10^{-7$ J

b)3.296 x $10^{-7$ J

Explanation:

For Sphere A:

mass 'Ma'= 47kg

xa= 0

For sphere B:

mass 'Mb'= 110kg

xb=3.4m

a)the gravitational potential energy is given by

$U_{i$ = -GMaMb/ d

$U_{i$ = - 6.67 x $10^{-11}$ x 47 x 110/ 3.4 => -1.014x $10^{-7$ J

b) at d= 0.8m (3.4-2.6) and $U_{i$ =-1.014x $10^{-7$ J

The sum of potential and kinetic energies must be conserved as the energy is conserved.

$K_{i$ + $U_{i$ = $K_{f$ + $U_{f$

As sphere starts from rest and sphere A is fixed at its place, therefore $K_{i$ is zero

$U_{i$ = $K_{f$ + $U_{f$

The final potential energy is

$U_{f$ = - GMaMb/d

Solving for ' $K_{f$ '

$K_{f$ = $U_{i$ + GMaMb/d => -1.014x $10^{-7$ + 6.67 x $10^{-11}$ x 47 x 110/ 0.8

$K_{f$ = 3.296 x $10^{-7$ J

Write this large number in scientific notation. Determine the values of Vm) and (n) when the following mass of the Earth is writ

hichkok12 [17]

Answer : The answer is, 5.97, 24

Explanation :

Scientific notation : It is the representation of expressing the numbers that are too big or too small and are represented in the decimal form with one digit before the decimal point times 10 raise to the power.

For example :

5000 is written as $5.0\times 10^3$

889.9 is written as $8.899\times 10^{-2}$

In this examples, 5000 and 889.9 are written in the standard notation and $5.0\times 10^3$ and $8.899\times 10^{-2}$ are written in the scientific notation.

If the decimal is shifting to right side, the power of 10 is negative and if the decimal is shifting to left side, the power of 10 is positive.

As we are given the 5,970,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 in standard notation.

Now converting this into scientific notation, we get:

$\Rightarrow 5,970,000,000,000,000,000,000,000=5.97\times 10^{24}$

As, the decimal point is shifting to left side, thus the power of 10 is positive.

Hence, the answer is, $5.97\times 10^{24}$

Now the answer is comparing to $m.\times 10^n$

So, m = 5.97 and n = 24

Thus, the answer is, 5.97, 24

Martije has made a slight error in naming a compound monocarbon tetrabromide. What compound is she most likely naming, and what

Alik [6]

Answer: $CBr_4$ : carbon tetrabromide

Explanation:

$CBr_4$ is a covalent compound because in this compound the sharing of electrons takes place between carbon and bromine. Both the elements are non-metals. Hence, it will form covalent bond.

The naming of covalent compound is given by:

1. The less electronegative element is written first.

2. The more electronegative element is written second. Then a suffix is added with it. The suffix added is '-ide'.

3. If atoms of an element is greater than 1, then prefixes are added which are 'mono' for 1 atom, 'di' for 2 atoms, 'tri' for 3 atoms and so on.

Hence, the correct name for $CBr_4$ is carbon tetrabromide.
