3 0

Answer:

capillary action

Explanation: It is the ability of liquid to flow in narrow spaces against the gravity and is the result of inter-molecular forces between liquid and the surrounding solid surface. This rising is the result of two opposite forces adhesion and cohesion. Capillarity is high when adhesion is more than cohesion.

A light-rail commuter train blows its 200 Hz horn as it approaches a crossing. The speed of sound is 339 m/s. (a) An observer wa
ddd [48]

Answer:

a) 30.82 m/s

b)  183.33 Hz

Explanation:

a)

V = speed of the sound = 339 m/s

v = speed of the train = ?

f' = observed frequency by the observer = 220 Hz

f = actual frequency of the observer = 200 Hz

using the equation

f' = \frac{fV}{V - v}

220 = \frac{(200)(339)}{339 - v}

v =  30.82 m/s

b)

V = speed of the sound = 339 m/s

v = speed of the train = 30.82 m/s

f'' = observed frequency by the observer as train moves away = ?

f = actual frequency of the observer = 200 Hz

using the equation

f'' = \frac{fV}{V + v}

f'' = \frac{(200)(339)}{339 + 30.82}

f'' = 183.33 Hz

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Kevin must have used simple random sampling.

Explanation:

We can say that Kevin used simple random sampling. This is because this type of sampling allows elements to be taken from a population in a completely random way, to form a sample. In this case, each element, or individual, as shown in the question above, has the same probability of being selected to compose the sample, since this selection is completely random.

Ignoring air​ resistance, an object in free fall will fall d feet in t​ seconds, where d and t are related by the algebraic mode
Lostsunrise [7]

Explanation:

Given that,

An object in free fall will fall d feet in t​ seconds, where d and t are related by the algebraic model as :

d=16t^2..........(1)

(a) We need to find the time taken by the object to fall 1148 ft. Put this in equation (1) as :

16t^2=1148

t=\sqrt{71.75}

t = 8.47 seconds

(b) If the object is in free fall for 18.5 sec after it is​ dropped, then the height of the object is given by :

d=16(18.5)^2

d = 5476 ft

Hence, this is the required solution.
