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

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 .

(1) <span>Electric current is defined as the rate of </span>charge<span> flow past a given point in an electric circuit. It is measured in Coulombs/second, also called Amperes. In </span>DC electric circuits<span>, it can be assumed that the </span>resistance<span> to current flow is a constant so that the current in the circuit is related to </span>voltage<span> and resistance by </span>Ohm's law, which is:
<span>
V = I*R
Where V = Voltage
I = Current
R = Resistance

(2) The answer is attached in image form down below(please find attachment)
(3) </span>The answer is attached in image form down below(please find attachment)

(4) <span>Renewable energy is the energy which is generated from the natural sources i.e. sun, tides, wind etc. Examples are: Solar Energy, Wind energy( windmill) etc. for electricity generation.
Advantages of Renewable Energy:
1) It is available in abundant quantity.
2) It is free to use.
3) It has </span><span>low carbon emissions, therefore it is considered as green and environment friendly.
Disadvantages of Renewable Energy:
1) It is not easy to setup plants and machinery for renewable energy.
2) Initial costs for setting up those plants and machinery is quite high.
3) The energy from the natural sources is not available 24/7. In Solar energy case, energy </span><span>can be used during the day time and not during night or rainy season etc.
</span>
Non-Renewable energy is energy which is taken from the sources that are available on the earth in limited quantity. Sources may be <span>fossil fuels, natural gas, oil and coal etc.
</span><span>Advantages of Non-Renewable Energy Sources:
1) They are easy to use.
2) They are cheap.

Disadvantages:
</span>1) They will expire some day (as they are limited).
2) The speed at which such resources are being used can have serious environmental changes.
3) They release toxic gases in the air when burnt which are the major cause for global warming.
<span>4) Since these sources are going to expire soon, prices of these sources are proliferating day by day.
</span><span>
Now you should judge all by yourself which is the better energy source.

Using Mirror equation A, Calculate The Frequency Of The Long Stand And The Shortest Wave Length Of That An Object Is Placed Of A
Leya [2.2K]

The Image distance and Magnification of The Image ​will be 30 cm and 3.

<h3>What is focal length?</h3>

The focal length of the lens, which is often expressed in millimeters, is the distance between the lens and the image sensor when the subject is in focus.

Given data;

Focal length,f=?

Image distance,v=?

Object distance,u= 10 cm

Magnification,m= 2.85

The focal length is half of the radius;

f=R/2

f=30 Cm/2

f= 15 Cm

The mirror equation is found as;

\rm \frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{v} +\frac{1}{u} \\\\\ \frac{1}{15}=\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{10} }  \\\\\ v= -30 \ cm

The magnification of the lens is found as;

\rm m=\frac{30}{10}\\\\ m=3

Hence, the image distance and magnification of The image ​will be 30 cm and 3.

Using hooke's law find the elastic constant of a spring that stretches 2 cm when 4newton force is applied to it
Kay [80]

<u>Answer:</u>

2N/cm

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

According to the Hooke's Law, the force required to extend or compress a spring is directly proportional distance you can stretch it, which is represented as:

F=kx

where, F is the force which is stretching or compressing the spring,

k is the spring constant; and

x is the distance the spring is stretched.

Substituting the given values to find the elastic constant  k to get:

F=kx

4=k(2)

k=\frac{4}{2}

k=2

Therefore, the elastic constant is 2 Newton/cm.

Among the alkali earth metals, the tendency to react with other substances
padilas [110]
Answer D
In alkali earth metals reacrivity increases from top to bottom (opposite of b)
This is because as you go down, the electron shells increase by 1 shell. The farther away a shell is from the nucleus, the higher its tendency to react.
D is true because the more reactive an alkali metal is, the more vigorous the reaction will be with water.
