When a guitar string is plucked, what part of the standing wave is found at the fixed ends of the string?(1 point)

The speed of sound in ice, water, and steam is shown. What best explains the speed of sound in different states of matter?

Marina86 [1]

The speed of sound is greater in ice (4000 m/s), then in water (1500 m/s), then in air (340 m/s). The explanation for this is the differente state of the matter in the three cases.

In fact, sound waves travel faster in solids (like ice), then in liquids (like water), then in gases (like air). This is because the speed of the sound wave depends on the density of the medium: the greater the density, the faster the sound wave. This can be easily understood by thinking at how a sound wave propagates: a sound wave is a vibration of molecules, which is transmitted throughout the medium by collision of the molecules. Therefore, the smaller the spacing between the molecules (such as in solids), the more efficient is the propagation, and so the sound wave is faster. On the contrary, there is a large spacing between molecules in gases (such as in the air), so there are less collisions between the molecules and so the wave is not transmitted efficiently, and so it has less velocity.

A gas has a pressure of 48atm in a 15.5L container. It was found that at 25∘C the gas occupied a volume of 25L and had a pressur

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

130.165636364°C

Explanation:

P = Pressure

V = Volume

n = Number of moles

R = Gas constant = 0.082 L atm/mol K

From ideal gas law we have

$PV=nRT\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{PV}{RT}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{22\times 25}{0.082\times (25+273.15)}\\\Rightarrow n=22.496451696\ moles$

$PV=nRT\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{PV}{nR}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{48\times 15.5}{22.496451696\times 0.082}\\\Rightarrow T=403.315636364\ K$

The initial temperature is $403.315636364-273.15=130.165636364\ ^{\circ}C$

A circuit contains four capacitors in parallel (10 F, 3 F, 7 F, and 1 F). What is the equivalent capacitance of this circuit?

Oxana [17]

The equivalent capacitance ( $C_{eq}$ ) of an electrical circuit containing four capacitors which are connected in parallel is equal to: A. 21 F.

<h3>The types of circuit.</h3>

Basically, the components of an electrical circuit can be connected or arranged in two forms and these are;

Series circuit

Parallel circuit

<h3>What is a parallel circuit?</h3>

A parallel circuit can be defined as an electrical circuit with the same potential difference (voltage) across its terminals. This ultimately implies that, the equivalent capacitance ( $C_{eq}$ ) of two (2) capacitors which are connected in parallel is equal to the sum of the individual (each) capacitances.

Mathematically, the equivalent capacitance ( $C_{eq}$ ) of an electrical circuit containing four capacitors which are connected in parallel is given by this formula:

Ceq = C₁ + C₂ + C₃ + C₄

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Ceq = 10 F + 3 F + 7 F + 1 F

Equivalent capacitance, Ceq = 21 F.

Una carga de -10Mc está situada a 20cm delante de otra carga de 5 Mc. Calcular la fuerza electrostática en Newton ejercida por u

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

a) force between them is attraction, b) F = 1.125 10⁻² N

Explanation:

In this case the electric force is given by Coulomb's law

F = $k \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

In the exercise they give us the values of the loads

q1 = - 10 mC = -10 10⁻³ C

q2 = 5 mC = 5 10⁻³ C

d = 20 cm = 0.20 m

let's calculate

F = 9 10⁹ $\frac{10 \ 10^{-3} \ 5 \ 10^{-3}}{0.20^2}$

F = 1.125 10⁻² N

To find the direction of the force we use that charges of the same sign repel each other, as in this case there is a positive and a negative charge, the force between them is attraction
