A single brick falls with acceleration g. The reason a double brick falls with the same acceleration is

Physics

EVERYTHING falls with the same acceleration near the earth's surface.

I thought about this for many years.  I finally understood WHY, and here's the way I like to explain it:

-- It takes MORE FORCE to accelerate a larger mass, and LESS FORCE to accelerate a smaller mass.

-- But guess what !  Gravity exerts MORE FORCE on a larger mass, and LESS FORCE on a smaller mass.

So everything averages out, and the acceleration is always the same, no matter what's falling.

To say it just a little bit differently:

-- A larger mass NEEDS more force to accelerate, but it GETS more force from gravity.

-- A smaller mass NEEDS less force to accelerate, but it GETS less force from gravity.

So everything averages out, and the acceleration is always the same, no matter what's falling.

The reason is because the force due to the acceleration from gravity is constant. It's the same as the typical "dropping a bowling ball and feather (with no air resistance) at the same time". Gravity acts on all object with the same acceleration regardless of physical properties.

A piano tuner is tuning a piano when he discovers that the G above middle C is vibrating with a higher frequency than his G tuni
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Tuning a piano is the process of adjusting the tension of its strings, thereby altering their pitch, or frequency of vibration, by slightly turning the tuning pins to which they're attached, so that each string sounds pleasingly in harmony with every other string.

What property of an electromagnetic wave changes when the wave is encoded with analog information?
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Amplitude and Frequency

Explanation:

Analog signals are composed of continuous waves that can have any values for frequency and amplitude. These waves are smooth and curved.

Radio transmissions are a combination of two kinds of waves: audio frequency waves that represent the sounds being transmitted and radio frequency waves that "carry" the audio information. All waves have a wavelength, an amplitude and a frequency as shown in the figure. These properties of the wave allow it to be modified to carry sound information.

The two most common types of modulation used in radio are amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency modulation (FM). Frequency modulation minimizes noise and provides greater fidelity than amplitude modulation, which is the older method of broadcasting . Both AM and FM are analog transmission systems, that is, they process sounds into continuously varying patterns of electrical signals which resemble sound waves.

What type of ethic is life-centered and views humans as just one component life on Earth
katrin [286]
The choices can be found elsewhere and as follows:

A anthropocentric 

B frontier 

C land

D biocentric


I think the correct answer is option A. It is anthropocentric the type of ethic that is life-centered and views humans as just one component life on Earth. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Phyics !!! Cannon ball question
natima [27]

Answer:

Zero; no force is required to keep it going

Explanation:

Since the cannon ball is fired into frictionless space, there will be nothing to stop it, so it will keep going and going.
