A box with a mass of 2 kg only has four forces acting on it: One force of 16 N due East. One force of 24 N due South. One force

of 16 N due West. One force of 18 N due North. What is the magnitude of the box's acceleration, in m/s2

Answer:

The acceleration of the object is 3 m/s2.

Explanation:

  • The force on the object is acting along the four directions which are perpendicular to each other.
  • Since the north and south directions are opposite to each other, the magnitude of the net force along north-south direction is (24-18)=6 N.
  • Since the east and west directions are opposite to each other, the magnitude of the net force along east-west direction is (16-16)=0 N.
  • Therefore the magnitude of the net force on the object is 6 N
  • By Newton's second law, the force F on the object is given by the formula F=ma.
  • Here m= 2kg, therefore 6 =(2)a which gives a = 3 m/s2.

Answer:

The magnitude of acceleration is 3 m/s^2.

Explanation:

The net force along North-South direction is 18-24=-6 N.

The net force along East-West direction is 16-16=0 N

The net magnitude of force is square root of (-6)^2+0^2 which is 6 N.

By Newton's Second law,

Force F=ma

Therefore acceleration a=F/m

                                       a=6/2

                                       a=3 m/s^2

Sound waves that enter the external acoustic meatus eventually encounter the __________, which then vibrates at the same frequen
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

tympanic membrane (eardrum)

Explanation:

The sound waves spread through the air and reach the outer ear, into which they penetrate through the ear canal. In doing so, they stimulate the eardrum, which closes the inner end of the duct. By vibrating this membrane, the vibration of a chain of ossicles located in the middle ear is induced. These ossicles transmit their vibration to the oval window, which is a membranous structure that communicates the middle ear with the cochlea of ​​the inner ear. When the oval membrane moves, it moves the liquid (perilymph) that fills one of the three cavities of the cochlea generating waves in it. These waves mechanically stimulate the sensory cells (hair cells) located in the organ of Corti, within the cochlea in the central cavity, the middle ramp. This cavity is filled with a liquid rich in K +, endolymph. The cells embedded in the endolymph, change their permeability to K + due to the movement of the cilia and respond by releasing a neurotransmitter that excites the nerve terminals, which initiate the auditory sensory pathway.
