1-5 test prep please help Waves A fisherman notices that wave crests pass the bow of his anchored boat every 3.0 s. He measures the distance between two crests to be 6.5 m. How fast are the waves traveling? 2. A sound wave in air has a frequency of 262 Hz and travels with a speed of 343 m/s. How far apart are the wave crests (compressions)? io signals have frequencies between 550 kHz and 1600 kHz and travel with...
A red blood cell travels at speed 0.40 m/s in a large artery. A sound frequency 2.00*10^6 Hz enters the blood opposite the direction of flow. a) Determine the frequency of sound reflected from the cell and detected by a reciever. b) If the emitted and received sounds are combined in the receiver, what beat frequnecy is measured?
a. 242 m/s b. 1.21 x 103 m/s c. 822 m/s d. 483 m/s 25. Is this rms speed the same or different from the nitrogen molecules in the sample? Explain. 26. An ideal gas sample of 11 moles initially at STP is isothermally compressed to half its original volume. What must be its final pressure? a. 4.8 atm b. 3 atm c. 2 atm d. 4 atm 27. In the previous question, by what factor does the internal energy...
