Answer:
Waves with high frequencies have shorter wavelengths that work better than low frequency waves for successful echolocation.
Explanation:
To understand why high-frequency waves work better than low frequency waves for successful echolocation, first we have to understand the relation between frequency and wavelength.
The relation between frequency and wavelength is given by
λ = c/f
Where λ is wavelength, c is the speed of light and f is the frequency.
Since the speed of light is constant, the wavelength and frequency are inversely related.
So that means high frequency waves have shorter wavelengths, which is the very reason for the successful echolocation because waves having shorter wavelength are more likely to reach and hit the target and then reflect back to the dolphin to form an image of the object.
Thus, waves with high frequencies have shorter wavelengths that work better than low frequency waves for successful echolocation.
Let the observer be 'd' distance away from the thunderstorm and let light take 't' time to reach the observer
Since the speed of sound and light remains constant in a particular medium, we can use
Speed = Distance/Time
For light,
3 x 10^8 = d/t
t = d/(3 x 10^8) -1
For sound,
339 = d/(t + 30) -2
Putting value from 1 in 2.
d = 10^4 m(approx)
Answer:
250 A
Explanation:
B = 5 x 10^-5 T, r = 1 m
Let current be i.
the magnetic field due to a straight current carrying conductor is given by
B = μ0 / 4π x 2i / r
5 x 10^-5 = 10^-7 x 2 x i / 1
i = 250 A
Answer:
1/2 M V^2 = .1 M g H where 10% of PE goes into KE
V^2 = .2 g H = .2 * 9.8 * (2100 - 1600) = 980 m^2 / s^2
V = 31.1 m/s increase in speed during descent
1 km / hr = 1000 m / 3600 sec = .278 m/s
V = 31.1 m/s / (.278 m/s / km /hr)= 112 km/hr
