Because 'acceleration' does NOT mean 'speeding up'. 
It means ANY change in motion ... speeding up, slowing down,
or changing DIRECTION.

When traveling a roundabout, or any curved path, the direction
is constantly changing even if the speed is constant, so there is
constant acceleration going on.

Describe how an oscilloscope should be used to measure the frequency of the sound wave from the sonometer
ratelena [41]

Answer:

            T = reading (cm) time base (s / cm)

            f = 1 / T

Explanation:

An oscilloscope is a piece of equipment that allows you to visualize and measure a wave that reaches you, in the case of having a sonometer this transforms the sound wave into an electrical signal to be introduced through one of the voltage channels of the equipment, on the screen we will see the oscillating alternating signal, if it is fixed we can make the reading, if it is moving the time base and the trigger must be adjusted to stop it.

In the oscilloscope we can read the period of the signal, this is the time it takes for the signal to repeat itself with this value, we can calculate the frequency with the formula, for the reading of the period the distance is measured on the labeled screen and multiplied by the time base

         

            T = reading (cm) time base (s / cm)

            f = 1 / T

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

55N

Explanation:

Using Newton's second law of motion:

F=ma

Force=mass × acceleration

F=25×2.2

F=55N

So 55 Newtons are needed
