A dog whistle is designed to produce a sound with a frequency beyond that which can be heard by humans (between 20 000 Hz and 27

000 Hz). If a particular whistle produces a sound with a frequency of 2.5 x 104 Hz, what is the sound's wavelength? Assume the speed of sound in air is 331 m/s.

Before colliding, the momentum of block A is -100 kg*m/, and block B is -150 kg*m/s. After, block A has a momentum -200 kg*m/s.

Answer:

Momentum of block B after collision = $-50\ kg\ ms^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given

Before collision:

Momentum of block A = $p_{A1}$ = $-100\ kg\ ms^{-1}$

Momentum of block B = $p_{B1}$ = $-150\ kg\ ms^{-1}$

After collision:

Momentum of block A = $p_{A2}$ = $-200\ kg\ ms^{-1}$

Applying law of conservation of momentum to find momentum of block B after collision $p_{B2}$ .

$p_{A1}+p_{B1}=p_{A2}+p_{B2}$

Plugging in the given values and simplifying.

$-100-150=-200+p_{B2}$

$-250=-200+p_{B2}$

Adding 200 to both sides.

$200-250=-200+p_{B2}+200$

$-50=p_{B2}$

∴ $p_{B2}=-50\ kg\ ms^{-1}$

Momentum of block B after collision = $-50\ kg\ ms^{-1}$

Your car is traveling at 70/mi/h (1000ft/s) your sneeze and your eyes close for 0.33 seconds how far did you travel during your

Novay_Z [31]

If you're moving at 70 mi/hr, then you cover 33.88 feet in 0.33 sec. If you're moving at 1,000 ft/sec, then you cover 33 feet in 0.33 sec. 70 mph and 1,000 fps are not equivalent. 1,000 fps is about 682 mph, whereas 70 mph is about 103 fps.

The speed of light is about 3.00 × 10 meters per second. What is the frequency of green light that has a wavelength about 500 na

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

The frequency of the green light is $6x10^{14}Hz$

Explanation:

The visible region is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, any radiation of that electromagnetic spectrum has a speed of $3.00x10^{8}m/s$ in the vacuum.

Green light is part of the visible region. Therefore, the frequency can be determined by the following equation:

$c = \lambda \cdot \nu$ (1)

Where c is the speed of light, $\lambda$ is the wavelength and $\nu$ is the frequency.

Notice that since it is electromagnetic radiation, equation 1 can be used. Remember that light propagates in the form of an electromagnetic wave (that is a magnetic field perpendicular to an electric field).

Then, $\nu$ can be isolated from equation 1

$\nu = \frac{c}{\lambda}$ (2)

Notice that it is necessary to express the wavelength in units of meters.

$\lambda = 500nm . \frac{1m}{1x10^{9}nm}$ ⇒ $5x10^{-7}m$

$\nu = \frac{3.00x10^{8}m/s}{5x10^{-7}m}$

$\nu = 6x10^{14}s^{-1}$

$\nu = 6x10^{14}Hz$

Hence, the frequency of the green light is $6x10^{14}Hz$
