(a) Two identical open boxes originally contain the same volume of water. One is kept at 15°C and the other at 85°C for the same

length of time.
Fig. 4.1 shows the final water levels.


With reference to the energies of the water molecules, explain why the levels are different.​

Explanation:

because as you can see beaker 2 has higher temperature. As volume is directly propotional

to temperature. So the the water molecules has

more energy so that's why levels are different.

What properties does a loud, shrill whistle have? a.) high amplitude, high frequency
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

a.) high amplitude, high frequency

Explanation:

Frequency and amplitude are properties of sound. Varying these properties changes how people perceive sound.

While hearing sound of a particular frequency we call it pitch i.e., the perception of a frequency of sound.

High pitch means high frequency and high frequency is perceived to have a shrill sound.

The loudness of a sound is measured by the intensity of sound i.e., the energy the sound possesses per unit area. As the amplitude increases the intensity increases. So, a loud sound will have higher density.

Hence, the loud shrill whistle will have high frequency and high amplitude.

A crane lifts a 425 kg steel beam vertically a distance of 64 m. How much work does the crane do on the beam if the beam acceler
Arisa [49]

Answer:

<h2>work done= 48.96 kJ</h2>

Explanation:

Given data

mass of  load m= 425 kg

height/distance h=64 m

acceleration a= 1.8 m/s^2

The work done can be calculated using the expression

work done= force* distance

but force= mass *acceleration

hence work done= 425*1.8*64= 48,960 J

work done= 48.96 kJ

Air flows upward in the wick of a lantern because of the liquid property called
vovangra [49]

Adhesive.

Adhesive is the force of attraction between molecules of different kind. Liquid flows upward the wick because the adhesive force between the wick and the liquid is higher than cohesive forces in the liquid.

When the adhesive  force  between the wick and the liquid is high we have capillarity taking place. This cause the liquid to move up the wick.

The speed of sound in room temperature (20°C) air is 343 m/s; in room temperature helium, it is 1010 m/s. The fundamental freque
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: f = 927.55Hz

Explanation: Since the the tube is open-closed, the length of air and the wavelength of sound passing through the tube is given below

L = λ/4 where λ = wavelength.

speed of sound in air = v = 343m/s.

fundamental frequency of open closed tube = 315Hz

λ = 4L.

v = fλ

343 = 315 * 4L

343 = 1260 * L

L = 343/ 1260

L = 0.27m

In the same tube of length L = 0.27m but different medium ( helium), the speed of sound is 1010m/s.

The length of tube and wavelength are related by the formulae below

L = λ/4, λ=4L

λ = 4 * 0.27

λ = 1.087m.

v = fλ

1010 = f * 1.087

f = 1010/1.807

f = 927.55Hz

You run a race with your friend. At first you each have the same kinetic energy, but then you find that she is beating you. When
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

52.49 Kg

Explanation:

Let m1 and v1 denote your mass and velocity respectively

Let m2 and v2 denote your friends mass and velocity respectively

Kinetic energy is given by

KE= 0.5mv^{2}  

Since your kinetic energies are the same hence

0.5m1(v1)^{2}=0.5m2(v2)^{2}

m1(v1)^{2}=m2(v2)^{2} and making m2 the subject then  

m2=\frac { m1(v1)^{2}}{(v2)^{2}}

Since v2 is v1+0.28v1=1.28v1

Substituting m1 for 86 Kg

m2=\frac { 86 Kg(v1)^{2}}{(1.28v1)^{2}}= 52.49023\approx 52.49 Kg
