Dolphins rely on echolocation to be able to survive in the ocean. In a 20 °C ocean, a dolphin produces an ultrasonic sound with

a frequency of 125 kHz. What is the wavelength of this sound, in meters?While remaining stationary, the dolphin emits a sound pulse and receives an echo after 0.220 s. How far away, in meters, is the reflecting object from the dolphin?

Answer:

wavelength =  0.01 m

distance = 162.8 m

Explanation:

Given that;

Speed of sound in water = 1,480 meters per second

Frequency of ultrasound = 125KHZ

From=

v=λf

v= speed of sound

λ= wavelength of sound

f= frequency of sound

λ= 1,480 ms-1/125 * 10^3 Hz

λ= 0.01 m

From

v = 2x/t

where;

v= velocity of sound in water

x= distance traveled

t = time taken

x = vt/2

x = 1,480 ms-1 *  0.220 s/2

x= 162.8 m

A series circuit is composed of two resistors:
WITCHER [35]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.3 Amps

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

A circuit with resistors, R1 and R2

R1 = 7 Ω

R2 = 11 Ω

Voltage = 24 V

We are required to calculate the current in the circuit.

<h3>Step 1: We need to find the effective resistance.</h3>

When resistors are arranged in series, the effective resistance is calculated by;

Rt = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + ..........Rₙ

Therefore;

Total resistance = 7 + 11

                          = 18 Ω

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the current in the circuit</h3>

From the ohm's law;

V = IR

Rearranging the formula;

I = V/R

Thus;

I = 24 V ÷ 18 Ω

 = 1.333 Amps

= 1.3 Amps

Thus, the current in the circuit is 1.3 Amps

We push a 38.4-kg box across the floor at constant velocity. If we are pushing a horizontal force of 238 N, find the coefficient
zmey [24]

Answer: 0.62

Explanation:

Coefficient of friction is defined as the ratio of the moving force (Fm) acting on a body to the normal reaction (R).

Note that the normal reaction acts vertically on the object and is equal to the objects weight (W) i.e W=R

Since W = mg, W = 38.4 ×10

W= 384N =R

Normal reaction = 384N

The horizontal force acting on the body will be the moving force which is 238N

Coefficient of friction = Fm/R

Coefficient of friction = 238/384

Coefficient of friction = 0.62

Therefore, coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor is 0.62
