What is the frequency of a sound wave directly related to?

1 answer:

8 0

The frequency of a sound wave is the number of cycles of a sound wave per second or Hertz (Hz). The frequency can be calculated by dividing wavelength by time (Figure 1.3). A small wavelength will yield a higher frequency, whereas a larger wavelength will yield a smaller frequency.

The cockroach Periplaneta americana can detect a static electric field of magnitude 8.50 kN/C using their long antennae. If the

erica [24]

Answer:

0.235 nC

Explanation:

Given:

$E$ = the magnitude of electric field = $8.50\ kN/C =8.50\times 10^{3}\ N/C$

$F$ = the magnitude of electric force on each antenna = $2.00\ \mu N =2.00\times 10^{-6}\ N$

$q$ = The magnitude of charge on each antenna

Since the electric field is the electric force applied on a charged body of unit charge.

$\therefore E = \dfrac{F}{q}\\\Rightarrow q =\dfrac{F}{E}\\\Rightarrow q =\dfrac{2.00\times 10^{-6}\ N}{8.50\times 10^{3}\ N/C}\\\Rightarrow q =0.235\times 10^{-9}\ C\\\Rightarrow q =0.235\ nC$

Hence, the value of q is 0.235 nC.

You jump off a truck and accelerate toward the surface of the Earth. Does the Earth accelerate toward you?

Triss [41]

When we jump from the truck and accelerate towards the earth surface, the earth also accelerates towards us but it's acceleration is very negligible.

To find the answer, we need to know about the acceleration of earth due to the gravitational attraction.

<h3>What's the gravitational force between the earth and a person?</h3>

Gravitational attraction force is GMm/r² between the earth and a person.
M= mass of the earth

m= mass of the person

r= separation between them.

<h3>What's the acceleration of the earth towards the person when he jumps from a truck?</h3>

According to Newton's second law, Force = M×acceleration
Acceleration= Force / M
Here, Force = GMm/r²,

so acceleration of earth= Gm/r²

As this acceleration is very small, so we can't notice it.

Thus, we can conclude that the earth also accelerates towards us.

A rubber band has potential energy of 5 J. If the spring constant of the rubber band is 50 N/m, what is the displacement of the

Valentin [98]

To determine the displacement, since we are given the potential energy, we use the equation for potential energy. For a spring, it is one-half the product of the spring constant and the square of the displacement. We do as follows:

PE = kx^2/2
5 Nm = 50N/m (x^2)
x = 0.32 m

Therefore, the displacement would be 0.32 m.

The experimentation step of scientific inquiry involves _______.

Hoochie [10]

<span>The answer is letter D.

The most important step in formulation a scientific inquiry is to first formulate a question. All answers sprung from a question that scratched the mind. Experimentation is not possible without the need to question, with this, the drive to find the answers is what motivates scientists or people involved in an experiment to find the answers that would suffice their curiosity. Questions are the basis of all the other choices above and is the most crucial step in the scientific inquiry.<span>
