Answer:

F = MA

Explanation:

OP you didn't give us any examples, but force equals mass times acceleration is Newton's First Law.

Dropping a ball (mass) from the top of a building can show gravity, a form of acceleration.

a 1020-hertz sound wave travels at 340 m/s in air with a wavelength of a) 30 m. b) 3 m. c) 0.333 m. d) 1 m. e) none of the above

eimsori [14]

The wavelength of the sound wave is equal to 0.333 m. Therefore, option (c) is correct.

<h3>What are frequency and wavelength?</h3>

The frequency of the wave can be defined as the number of oscillations that occur in one second and can be expressed in hertz. The wavelength can be defined as the distance between the two adjacent points of a wave such as two crests or troughs.

The relationship between frequency (ν), speed of sound waves (V), and wavelength (λ):

V = νλ

Given, the frequency of the sound wave, ν = 10 Hz

The speed of the sound wave, $V = 340 m/s$

The wavelength of the sound waves can determine as follows

λ = V/ν = 340/1020 = 0.333 m.

Therefore, the wavelength of the sound wave is 0.333 m

A circuit contains two resistors in series. The voltage drop across the first is 10 V. The voltage drop across the second is als

Norma-Jean [14]

Hi there!

Voltage in a series can be expressed by the following:

$V_T = V_1 + V_2$

In words, the total voltage is equal to the sum of the individual voltage drops in a SERIES circuit.

We can solve for the total voltage:

$V_T = 10 + 10 = \boxed{\text{ D. 20 V}}$

A Ferris wheel starts at rest and builds up to a final angular speed of 0.70 rad/s while rotating through an angular displacemen

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The average angular acceleration is 0.05 radians per square second.

Explanation:

Let suppose that Ferris wheel accelerates at constant rate, the angular acceleration as a function of change in angular position and the squared final and initial angular velocities can be clear from the following expression:

$\omega^{2} = \omega_{o}^{2} + 2 \cdot \alpha\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})$

Where:

$\omega_{o}$ , $\omega$ - Initial and final angular velocities, measured in radians per second.

$\alpha$ - Angular acceleration, measured in radians per square second.

$\theta_{o}$ , $\theta$ - Initial and final angular position, measured in radians.

Then,

$\alpha = \frac{\omega^{2}-\omega_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot (\theta-\theta_{o})}$

Given that $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $\theta-\theta_{o} = 4.9\,rad$ , the angular acceleration is:

$\alpha = \frac{\left(0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(4.9\,rad\right)}$

$\alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

Now, the time needed to accelerate the Ferris wheel uniformly is described by this kinematic equation:

$\omega = \omega_{o} + \alpha \cdot t$

Where $t$ is the time measured in seconds.

The time is cleared and obtain after replacing every value:

$t = \frac{\omega-\omega_{o}}{\alpha}$

If $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $\alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$ , the required time is:

$t = \frac{0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} - 0\,\frac{rad}{s} }{0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} }$

$t = 14\,s$

Average angular acceleration is obtained by dividing the difference between final and initial angular velocities by the time found in the previous step. That is:

$\bar \alpha = \frac{\omega-\omega_{o}}{t}$

If $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , $\omega = 0.70\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $t = 14\,s$ , the average angular acceleration is:

$\bar \alpha = \frac{0.70\,\frac{rad}{s} - 0\,\frac{rad}{s} }{14\,s}$

$\bar \alpha = 0.05\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$

The average angular acceleration is 0.05 radians per square second.

two electronics students are discussing electrical units. student A says that electrical power is measured in units coulombs, st

Savatey [412]

The statements of both students are incorrect.

-- Electrical power, just like mechanical power, is expressed in units of watts.
-- 'Coulomb' is the unit of electrical charge.
-- '400 k ohms' means 400,000 ohms of resistance.
-- 'Volt' is the unit of electromotive force (or potential difference).

There are no 'following statements'.

All in all, a very disappointing question.
