Voices of swimmers at a pool travel 400 m/s through the air and 1,600 m/s underwater. The wavelength changes from 2 m in the air

to 8 m underwater. How has the change in media affected the frequency of the wave? It increased. It decreased. It stayed the same. It cannot be calculated.

Response: Frequency remains unchanged.

Clarification:

Voices conveyed through air travel at 400 m/s, while underwater they reach speeds of 1600 m/s.

The wavelength shifts from 2 m in air to 8 m in water.

The relationship between speed and wavelength reveals that

v=\nu\times \lambda

defines frequency.

\nu=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}

\nuis the wavelength.

\lambdaFrequency through air,

Frequency in water, \nu_a=\dfrac{400\ m/s}{2\ m}=200\ Hz

\nu_w=\dfrac{1600\ m/s}{8\ m}=200\ HzConsequently, the frequency of the swimmers' voices does not change throughout the process.

Thus, the correct choice is (C) "It stayed the same".

The frequency of a sound remains constant as it departs from the source. It does not alter.

The voices of swimmers do not modify in frequency when transitioning to or from the water. Only their speed and wavelength vary.

Keith_Richards [3271]

In collision-related situations, momentum remains constant.

Thus, we can deduce:

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1 v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

To resolve these problems we also need another equation concerning the restitution coefficient:

v_{2f} - v_{1f} = e(v_{1i} - v_{2i})

With these two equations, we can calculate the velocities after a collision.

Here, the contact force brings about changes in velocity during their interaction.

This represents the impulse that occurs when the two objects are briefly in contact during the collision, which modifies their velocities.

Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

The voltage across the bulb measures 3.0 V,

Explanation:

The bulb's voltage aligns with the voltage of the batteries, as they are the only power source for the bulb. Therefore, the voltage across the batteries is 3.0 V.

On a caterpillars map all distances are marked in kilometers . The caterpillars map shows the distance between two milkweed plan
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer:

The equivalent distance in kilometers is 4012 ×10^{-6} km.

Explanation:

It's known that 1 millimeter converts to 10^{-3} meters. Then, 1 meter converts to 10^{-3} kilometers. Therefore, the conversion for 1 millimeter to kilometers can be stated as

1 mm = 10^{-3} m

1 m = 10^{-3} km

Thus, 1 mm = 10^{-3}×10^{-3} km = 10^{-6} km.

Given the distance of 4012 mm, the corresponding distance in kilometers will be

4012 mm = 4012 ×10^{-6} km.

The distance therefore is 4012 ×10^{-6} km.
