When they meet the 40-kg boy would have moved a distance of 6 m.

<h3>Distance moved by the 40 kg boy</h3>

Apply the principle of center mass;

Take the 40 kg mass as the reference point;

X(40 kg) = (40kg x 0  + 60kg x 10 m)/(40 kg + 60 kg)

X(40 kg) = (600)/(100)

X(40 kg) = 6 m

Thus, when they meet the 40-kg boy would have moved a distance of 6 m.

An open organ pipe is 2.46 m long, and the speed of the air in the pipe is 345 m/s.
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Fundamental frequency is 70.12 m

Explanation:

For an open organ pipe, the fundamental frequency is given by :

f=\dfrac{nv}{2l}

n = 1 for fundamental frequency

v is speed of sound in air, v = 345 m/s

l is length of open organ pipe, l = 2.46 m

Substituting values in above formula. So,

f=\dfrac{1\times 345}{2\times 2.46}\\\\f=70.12\ Hz

So, the fundamental frequency of this pipe is 70.12 m.

BRAINLIEST+10PTS: does ozone absorb just harmful UV rays? Or just a random portion of UV?
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:As sunlight passes through the atmosphere, all UVC and most UVB is absorbed by ozone, water vapour, oxygen and carbon dioxide. UVA is not filtered as significantly by the atmosphere. Is there a connection between ozone depletion and UV radiation? Ozone is a particularly effective absorber of UV radiation.

How does acceleration values differ mathematically from deceleration values?
Serggg [28]
If a problem says the acceleration is some positive value than solve using that value, a negative acceleration is said to be deceleration. E.g. a car decelerating at 10 m/sec can be said to be accelerating at -10 m/sec.

If a problem states decelerates at A, then use -A for acceleration in the classic equations which are for acceleration. If a problem says accelerates at a negative value like -A the use -A as the value for acceleration, it can also be said to be decelerating at A.
