Answer:

0.777m

Explanation:

The sound wave has a wavelength of 0.773m.

Explanation:

To solve this problem we have to use the wave equation that is given below:

We know the frequency and the velocity, both of which have good units. All we have to do is rearrange the equation and solve for

λ :

λ = v f

Let's plug in our given values and see what we get!

λ = 340 m s

440 s − 1

λ = 0.773 m

Hope this helps, Mark as brainliest if u want

What is the definition of force according to the Newton's first law of motion

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

In physics, a force is any influence that causes an object to undergo a certain change, either concerning its movement, direction, or geometrical construction. In other words, a force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate, or a flexible object to deform, or both.

The boys tried a second experiment. They built a balloon car like the one seen here. As the gas in the balloon is released, the

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

newton's third law of motion

Explanation:

The model of balloon car is example of newton's third law of motion which says that to every action there is always and equal and opposite reaction. As the balloon is inflated and then release the nozzle, the rubber contacts and pushes the air forward out of the nozzle, the air pushes back on the rubber and propelling the balloon forward.

An unfortunate astronaut loses his grip during a spacewalk and finds himself floating away from the space station, carrying only

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

15.8m/s

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by taking into account the conservation of the momentum. In this case the momentum of the astronaut and the bag of tools must equal the momentum of the astronaut and the bag of tool after the astronaut throws the bag.

Hence, we have

$p_{before}=p_{after}\\(m_{a}+m_{b})v=m_{a}v_{a}+m_{b}v_{b}$

where ma and va are the mass and velocity of the astronaut, mb and vb are the mass and velocity of the bag, after the astronaut throw the bag. The velocity v is the velocity where the astronaut has the bag of tool

By taking into account that the velocity of the astronaut must be zero to keep him near of the space station, we have that vb = 0.

Thus

$(124 + 19.0)2.10=19.0v_{b}\\v_{b}=\frac{300.3}{19.0}=15.8m/s$
