A sound wave travels in air toward the surface of a freshwater lake and enters into the water. The frequency of the sound does n

ot change when the sound enters the water. The wavelength of the sound is 2.86 m in the air, and the temperature of both the air and the water is 20 degrees C. What is the wavelength in the water

7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity of sound in air at 20⁰C is 343 m /s

velocity of sound in water at 20⁰C is 1481 m /s

The wavelength of the sound is 2.86 m in the air so its frequency

= 343 / 2.86 = 119.93 .

This frequency of  119.93 will remain unchanged in water .

wavelength in water = velocity in water / frequency

= 1481 / 119.93

= 12. 35 m .

Mike Powell holds the record for the long jump of 8.95 m, established in 1991. If he left the ground at an angle of 18.8°, what
maksim [4K]

Answer:

<em>12 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Projectile Motion</u>

It's also known as 2D motion because the movement takes place in both axis x and y. The x-axis motion is at a constant speed since in absence of friction, no external force stops or accelerates the object. The y-axis motion is at variable speed, which is changed by the acceleration of gravity that makes the object to reach a maximum height and then go back to ground level.

The maximum horizontal distance reached (also called Range) is given by

\displaystyle X_m=\frac{V_{o}^2sin2\theta}{g}

Knowing that \theta=18.8^o, X_m=8.95\ m, we solve for Vo

\displaystyle V_o=\sqrt{\frac{gX_m}{sin2\theta}}

\displaystyle V_o=\sqrt{\frac{9.8\cdot 8.95}{sin(2\cdot 18.8^o)}}=12\ m/s

Thus, the initial speed of Mike Powell was 12 m/s

How does an annular eclipse differ from a total eclipse.
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Solar eclipses may be classified as either total, in which the Moon completely covers the Sun, or annular, in which the Moon obscures all but an outer ring of the Sun.

If you had a rock with a volume of 237 ml and a density of 4.52 g/ml how much mass would it have?
larisa [96]

Explanation:

Mass = Volume * Density

= 237ml * (4.52g/ml)

= 1071.2g.
