An old mining tunnel disappears into a hillside. You would like to know how long the tunnel is, but it's too dangerous to go inside. Recalling your recent physics class, you decide to try setting up standing-wave resonances inside the tunnel. Using your subsonic amplifier and loudspeaker, you find resonances at 5.0 Hz and 6.4 HZ, and at no frequencies between these. It's rather chilly inside the tunnel, so you estimate the sound speed to be 337 m/s. Based on your measurements, how far is it to the end of the tunnel?

Glass is transparent to visibile light under normal conditions; however, at extremely high intensities, glass will absorb most of the light incident upon it. this works through a process known as multiphoton absorption. in this process, several photons are absorbed at the same time. if very intense light whose photons carry 2ev of energy is shined onto a material with a band gap of 4ev, that light can be absorbed through two-photon absorption, because two photons have the right amount of energy to bridge the band gap. what is the minimum number of photons of 800-nm light that are needed to equal or exceed the band gap of fused silica glass

The bubbles in a carbonated soft drink are produced when carbonic acid decomposes to form carbon dioxide and water. in a closed system, this equilibrium exists as why does a carbonated soft drink lose carbonation when the container is left open? a. water evaporates, which favors the formation of h2co3. b. pressure decreases, which favors the formation of h2co3. c. the open container warms up, which causes more gas to escape. d. co2is removed, which favors the formation of h2co3.
