Consider a high-speed bus colliding head-on with an innocent bug. The force of impact splatters the unfortunate bug over the win

Answer:

The force on the bug and the force on the bus are the same.

Explanation:

Newton's Third Law of Motion states that, "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction" or it can be restated that If a high-speed bus exerts a force on an innocent bug, then the innocent bug must exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction back on the high-speed bus.

Note: though the forces are equal but the effect are not, in this case the innocent bug was splattered but the bus was not destroyed.

C:

Explanation:

either C or A but A seems unlikely after multiple attempts. Although the question doesn't make it clear whether the balance is electric either way it could be wrong in someway and seems to be the most likely.

A child has an ear canal that is 1.3 cm long. Assume the speed of sound is v = 344 m/s.
kap26 [50]

Answer:

The  frequencies are (f, f_1) =  (6615.4 \ Hz , 19846.2\ Hz)

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  length of the ear canal is  l = 1.3 \ cm  =\frac{1.3}{100}  =  0.013 \ m

   The  speed of sound is assumed to be  v_s  =  344 \ m/s

Now  taking look at a typical  ear canal  we see that we assume it is  a  closed pipe

   Now the fundamental harmonics for the pipe(ear canal) is mathematically represented as

            f = \frac{v_s}{4 * l }

 substituting values  

          f = \frac{344}{4 * 0.013 }

         f = 6615.4 \ Hz

Also the the second harmonic for the pipe (ear canal) is mathematically represented as

        f_1 =  \frac{3v_s}{4 * l}

 substituting values  

       f_1 =  \frac{3 *  344}{4 * 0.013}

       f_1 =   19846.2 \ Hz

Given that sound would be loudest in the pipe at the frequency, it implies that the child  will have an increased audible sensitivity at this  frequencies

Two forces F1 and F2 of equal magnitude are applied to a brick of mass 20kg lying on the floor as shown in the figure above. If
jeka57 [31]

Let F_{1}=F_{2}=F.

Normal force equals (using Newton's third law) N=mg+F\sin30^{o}-F\sin37^{o}.

F_{f}\leq \mu N = \mu(mg+F\sin30^{o}-F\sin37^{o}), but F_{f}\leq F(\cos30^o+\cos37^o) for all F_{f} (in order to start moving the break). Therefore F(\cos 30^o+\cos37^o)\geq \mu(mg+F\sin30^{o}-F\sin37^{o}), solving for F: F\geq \frac{\mu mg}{\cos30^o+\cos37^o-\mu\sin30^o+\mu\sin37^o}\approx 46,91\; \textbf{N}
