Answer:

57 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram.  There are three forces:

Weight force mg pulling down.

Normal force N pushing up.

Friction force F pushing horizontally.

Sum of the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

Friction force is the product of normal force and coefficient of friction:

F = Nμ

F = mgμ

F = (65 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (0.09)

F = 57.3 N

Rounded, the friction force is 57 N.

A boat has a mass of 31,999 kg and a plane has a mass of 110,000 kg. What is the ratio of weight of the plane to the boat?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

3.44:1

Explanation:

We use ratios to find the ratio of weight.

 Mass of Plane= 110000 kg                          ∴ W= mg

 Mass of  Boat =31999 kg

\frac{weight of plane}{weight of boat}=\frac{110000*9.81}{31999*9.81}

 =\frac{3.44}{1}

SO 3.44:1

irakobra [83]

Answer:

dF=2.5Hz

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Time T=0.2sec

Generally the Period is given as

 T= 2 * 0.2 = 0.4

Therefore difference in frequency dF

 dF=\frac{1}{T}

 dF=\frac{1}{0.4}

 dF=2.5Hz

An ambulance is rapidly approaching you at a stop light. What happens to the frequency and pitch of the sound as the ambulance d
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

A )

Explanation:

This change in frequency observation occur due to doppler effect

if the wave source moves,In the time between one wave peak being emitted and the next, the source will have moved so that the shells will no longer be concentric. The wavefronts will get closer together in front of the source as it travels and will be further apart behind it.  (see the graph)

when the person standing still in front of the ambulance, he will observe a <em>higher frequency </em>than before as the source travels towards them.

f_(observed)=\frac{V_(wave)}{V_(wave)-V_(source)} *f_(original)

The pitch we hear depends on the frequency of the sound wave.

A high frequency corresponds to a high pitch

as we hear a higher frequency , it makes the <em>pitch higher</em> too
