Answer:

f = 2 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is defined as the no. of waves passing per unit of time. Therefore, the frequency of a wave can be calculated by the following formula:

f = \frac{n}{t}

where,

f = frequency of the wave = ?

t = time passed = 1 s

n = no. of waves passing in time t = 2

Therefore,

f = \frac{2}{1\ s}

<u>f = 2 Hz</u>

The density of silver is 10.5 g cm3. a piece of silver with a mass of 61.3 g would ovvupy a volume of ?
natali 33 [55]
The relationship between mass m, volume V and density d is:
d= \frac{m}{V}
The silver has density d=10.5 g/cm^3, and the mass of the piece of silver is m=61.3 g. Therefore we can calculate its volume using the previous formula:
V= \frac{m}{d}= \frac{61.3 g}{10.5 g/cm^3}=5.84 cm^3

Which statement is true about the element shown here? A) This element tends to gain electrons to become stable. B) This element
cestrela7 [59]

ITS C

This element tends to lose 2 electrons to become a 2+ ion, is the correct statement regarding the element calcium. Calcium has 2 electrons in its outer shell and it is easier to lose them than it is to gain enough to become stable. When stable it has 2 more protons than electrons forming a 2+ ion.

A charge Q is to be divided into two parts, labeled 'q' and 'Q-q? What is the relationship of q to Q if, at any given distance,
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The two charges are q and Q - q. Let the distance between them is r

Use the formula for coulomb's law for the force between the two charges

F = \frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}

So, the force between the charges q and Q - q is given by

F = \frac{K\left ( Q-q \right )q}}{r^{2}}

For maxima and minima, differentiate the force with respect to q.

\frac{dF}{dq} = \frac{k}{r^{2}}\times \left ( Q - 2q \right )

For maxima and minima, the value of dF/dq = 0

So, we get

q = Q /2

Now \frac{d^{2}F}{dq^{2}} = \frac{-2k}{r^{2}}

the double derivate is negative, so the force is maxima when q = Q / 2 .
