Elephants can communicate over distances as far as 6 km by using very low-frequency sound waves. What is the wavelength of a 10

Hz sound wave emitted by an elephant? Assume air temperature is 20∘C.

The characteristics of the sound waves allow to find the result for the wavelength is:

         λ = 34.29 m

The sound wave is a longitudinal traveling wave, where the speed of the wave depends on the air temperature.

         v = v_o \sqrt{1 + \frac{T}{273} }  

where v₀ is the speed of sound for T = 0ºc v₀ = 331 m / s.

indicate that the temperature is T = 20ºC, let's find the speed of the traveling wave.

        v = 331 \sqrt{1 + \frac{20}{273} }  

        v = 342.9 m / s

The speed of sound is related to wavelength and frequency.

       v = λ f

        λ = \frac{v}{f}

Let's calculate

        \lambda = \frac{342.29}{10}  

        λ  = 34.29 m

In conclusion using the characteristics of sound waves we can find the result for the wavelength is:

          λ = 34.29 m

Hi,Find  answers from Task 5

1.(X+4)+(X)+(X+4)+(X)=50cm

4x+8=50cm

4x=42

X=10.5cm

Length=10.5+4=14.5cm

Width=10.5cm

Area= length × width=(10.5/100) × (14.5/100) =0.0152m2

2. Volume of a sphere= 4/3 ×π×r³

4/3 ×π×r³=3.2×10^-6 m³

r³=3.2×10^-6 m³/1.33×π

r³=7.64134761e-7

r=0.00914m

Surface area of the blood drop= 4πr²

=4×3.142×0.00914×0.00914=0.00105m²

3.

Equation of an ideal gas     = PV =n RT  

Equation for pressure, = P= n RT/V

Equation for the volume of an ideal gas= V= n RT/P

If the volume of gas doubles ,V(new)=  2n RT/P

Equation for temperature of an ideal gas, T = PV/n R

If temperature of gas triples, T (new)= 3PV/n R

New Equation for Pressure, = n× R× (3PV/n R)/(2n RT/P)

Pressure factor increase= P(new)/P(old)  ={ n× R× (3PV/n R)/(2n RT/P)}/{ n RT/V}

=3PV²/2n RT

At 7.0°c, the volume of a gas is 49 ml. at the same pressure, its volume is 74 ml at what temperature?
Rashid [163]
So i converted everything first; 
<span>7.0 C ---> 280 K </span>
<span>49 mL---> 0.049 L </span>
<span>74mL---> 0.074 L </span>
<span>THEN I tried setting it up by the combined law formula which is P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2 </span>
