Answer:

6.79 m/s

Explanation:

By applying the principle of conservation of momentum.

The total momentum = MV - mv = 0 (since the squid is beginning at rest)

the mass of the squid (M) in absence of water in its cavity = (6.5 - 1.75) kg

= 4.75 kg

speed of the squid (V) = 2.5 m/s

mass of the water expelled (m) = 1.75 kg

speed of the water (v) = ???

∴

4.75 × 2.5 = 1.75 × v

v = \dfrac{4.75 \times 2.5}{1.75 }

v = 6.79 m/s

Below is the data from a gas law experiment comparing the pressure and the volume of a gas at a given temperature.
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The combined gas equation relates three variables pressure, temperature and volume when the number of moles is constant.

The equation is PV / T = constant. Which is valid for a fixed number of moles of the gas.

You can derive the combined gas equation from the combination of Bolye's law, Charles' law and Gay-Lussac's law, which needs some algebra.

1).  The equation is: (speed) = (frequency) x (wavelength)

Speed = (256 Hz) x (1.3 m) = 332.8 meters per second

 2).  If the instrument is played louder, the amplitude of the waves increases.
On the oscilloscope, they would appear larger from top to bottom, but the
horizontal size of each wave doesn't change.

If the instrument is played at a higher pitch, then the waves become shorter,
because 'pitch' is directly related to the frequency of the waves, and higher
pitch means higher frequency and more waves in any period of time.

If the instrument plays louder and at higher pitch, the waves on the scope
become taller and there are more of them across the screen.

3).  The equation is:  Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)
(Notice that this is exactly the same as the equation up above in question #1,
only with each side of that one divided by 'wavelength'.)

Frequency = 300,000,000 meters per second / 1,500 meters = 200,000 per second.

That's ' 200 k Hz ' .

Note:
I didn't think anybody broadcasts at 200 kHz, so I looked up BBC Radio 4
on-line, and I was surprised.  They broadcast on several different frequencies,
and one of them is 198 kHz !
