Why is this statement false?

Physics

The statement is false because as the temperature of water is decreased from 4C to 0C, <em>expansion</em> occurs.

You should understand that this is very weird behavior for any compound ... within a small temperature range, the stuff actually gets bigger as it gets colder.  That's why cubes float in your sody, and bergs float in the ocean.

Water is one of only two known substances that do this.  And if water didn't do it, then life on Earth would not be possible.  

Hmmm....

A wave traveling in the positive x-direction with a frequency of 50.0 Hz is shown in the figure below. Find the following values
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. The amplitude is the measure of the height of the wave from the midline to the top of the wave or the midline to the bottom of the wave (called crests). The midline then divides the whole height in half. Thus, the amplitude of this wave is 9.0 cm.

b. Wavelength is measured from the highest point of one wave to the highest point of the next wave (or from the lowest point of one wave to the lowest point of the next wave, since they are the same). The wavelength of this wave then is 20.0 cm. or \lambda=20.0cm

c. The period, or T, of a wave is found in the equation

f=\frac{1}{T} were f is the frequency of the wave. We were given the frequency, so we plug that in and solve for T:

50.0=\frac{1}{T} so

T=\frac{1}{50.0} and

T = .0200 seconds to the correct number of sig fig's (50.0 has 3 sig fig's in it)

d. The speed of the wave is found in the equation

f=\frac{v}{\lambda} and since we already have the frequency and we solved for the wavelength already, filling in:

50.0=\frac{v}{20.0} and

v = 50.0(20.0) so

v = 1.00 × 10³ m/s

And there you go!

A flute plays a note with a frequency of 266 Hz. What is the speed of sound if the wavelength is 1.3 m?
hjlf

Wave speed  =  (frequency)  x  (wavelength)

                       =  (266 /sec)  x  (1.3 meters)

                       =     345.8 meters/sec

Four ways to increase magnitude of current in dynamo​
8090 [49]

Answer:

hmm

Explanation:

By increasing the number of turns in the coil, strength of magnetic field, speed of rotation of the coil in the magnetic field and by decreasing the distance between the coil and the magnet the magnitude of the induced e.m.f. can be increased in generator/dynamo.
