This may shock you:

We NEVER feel speed, velocity, or motion, as long as it's constant.

We only feel CHANGES in speed, velocity, or motion.

That means speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction.

As long as we're moving in a straight line at a constant speed, we don't feel anything.

Ultrasound with a frequency of 4.257 MHz can be used to produce images of the human body. If the speed of sound in the body is t
shutvik [7]

Answer:

2.49 * 10^(-4) m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Frequency, f = 4.257 MHz = 4.257 * 10^6 Hz

Speed of sound in the body, v = 1.06 km/ = 1060 m/s

The speed of a wave is given as the product of its wavelength and frequency:

v = λf

Where λ = wavelength

This implies that:

λ = v/f

λ = (1060) / (4.257 * 10^6)

λ = 2.49 * 10^(-4) m

The wavelength of the sound in the body is 2.49 * 10^(-4) m.

posledela

Answer:

C. scientists possess varied talents and interests.

Explanation:

The above passage suggests clearly that often times, scientists possess varied talents and interests.

Cases were made of  Abū Rayhān al-Bīrūnī and Robert Hooke. Both were scientists and had the same time had interests in other disciplines.

  • Abū Rayhān al-Bīrūnī, a Persian made scientific contribution to the studies of heat, more so, his interest in cultures lucidly made him an erudite and foremost founding father of anthropology. Physics/mathematics and Anthropology are different fields with varied interests.
  • Robert Hooke, was interested in physics. Besides this, he was skilled architect and surveyor. Physics and architecture/surveying are different fields. They are varied and dissimilar in nature.

Therefore, we can argue that the tone set by the author conveys a clear focal point that often times, scientists possess varied talents and interests.
