Answer:

(C) 4 beats per second.

Explanation:

As we know that the no of beats can be calculated as.

No. of beats is equal to difference in the tuning forks frequencies.

So,

n= \nu _{1}- \nu _{2}.

Substitute the values of frequencies of 2 tuning forks in the above equation.

n=(260 Hz-256 Hz)\\n=4

Therefore the number of beats per second will be hear by the observer is 4 beats per second.

Sort the chemical equations based on the chemical reactions they represent.
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Decomposition reactions are said to be those reactions in which a reactants breakdown into two or more products. The general reaction for decomposition reactions is as follow,

                                         ABC    →    A  +  B  +  C

Specific Examples are as,

                                Water    →     Hydrogen + Oxygen

                                2 H₂O    →           2 H₂     +      O₂

               Calcium carbonate    →     Calcium oxide + Carbon dioxide

                            CaCO₃              →              CaO         +        CO₂

While, Synthetic reactions are said to be those reactions in which two or more reactants combine to form two or more products. The general reaction for synthetic reactions is as follow,

                                         A  +  B  +  C    →    ABC

Specific Examples are as,

                                  Iron + Oxygen     →     Iron Oxide

                                    2 Fe  +  3 O₂      →        2 Fe₂O₃

                          Sodium + Chlorine     →     Sodium chloride

                              2 Na  +       Cl₂        →            2 NaCl

                            Sulfur + Oxygen      →      Sulfur dioxide

                                  S    +    O₂            →             SO₂

                   Potassium + Chlorine      →      Potassium chloride

                            2 K     +     Cl₂            →              2 KCl

A block whose weight is 45 N rests on a horizontal table. A horizontal force of 36 N is applied to the block. The coefficient of
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

1.5 m/s²

Explanation:

For the block to move, it must first overcome the static friction.

Fs = N μs

Fs = (45 N) (0.42)

Fs = 18.9 N

This is less than the 36 N applied, so the block will move.  Since the block is moving, kinetic friction takes over.  To find the block's acceleration, use Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

F − N μk = ma

36 N − (45 N) (0.65) = (45 N / 9.8 m/s²) a

6.75 N = 4.59 kg a

a = 1.47 m/s²

Rounded to two significant figures, the block's acceleration is 1.5 m/s².

Usually the coefficient of static friction is greater than the coefficient of kinetic friction.  You might want to double check the problem statement, just to be sure.

Suppose students experiment with the tube and a variety of darts. Some darts have higher masses than others but are the same aer
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The dart with the small mass will travel the farthest distance.

Explanation:

Acceleration is proportional to force times mass, and inertia is proportional to mass. Inertia is the reluctance of a moving body to stop, and a stationary body to start moving (inertia increses with mass). Assuming they both have the same aerodynamic design, and that they are both launched with the same force applied for the same time duration, the dart with less small mass will accelerate faster than the big mass dart. From this we can see that the small dart will have covered a longer distance before the effect of the force stops, when compared to the more massive dart.
