In this experiment, the independent variable is the surface, the dependant variable is the distance one end of the surface must be lifted to see movement of the object, and the control variable is the object. Since the surface height at one end is changed and the object is kept the same, the only conclusion that can be made is whether the surface has an effect on the force of friction. Of course, basic physics tells you that it does, therefore A is correct.

(b) Can the speed of a rocket exceed the exhaust speed of the fuel? Explain.

muminat

<u>Yes. The speed of a rocket can exceed the exhaust speed of the fuel.</u>

How this is explained?

The thrust of the rocket does not depend on the relative speed of the gases or the relative speed of the rocket.
It depends on conservation of momentum.

What is conservation of momentum?

Conservation of momentum, general law of physics according to which the quantity called momentum that characterizes motion never changes in an isolated collection of objects; that is, the total momentum of a system remains constant.

Momentum is equal to the mass of an object multiplied by its velocity and is equivalent to the force required to bring the object to a stop in a unit length of time.
For any array of several objects, the total momentum is the sum of the individual momenta.
There is a peculiarity, however, in that momentum is a vector, involving both the direction and the magnitude of motion, so that the momenta of objects going in opposite directions can cancel to yield an overall sum of zero.

brainly an andean condor with a wingspan and a mass soars along a horizontal path. model its wings as a rectangle with a width.

Anna35 [415]

The difference between the pressure at the top surfaces of the condor's wings and the pressure at the bottom surfaces is 101,204 Pa.

<h3>Difference in pressure between the top and bottom of the wingspan</h3>

The difference in pressure between the top and bottom of the wingspan is calculated as follows;

ΔP = P(top) - P(bottom)

<h3>Area of the wingspan</h3>

A = bh

A = 2.7 m x 0.27 m

A = 0.729 m²

<h3>Weight of the Andean condor</h3>

W = mg

W = 9 x 9.8

W = 88.2 N

<h3>Pressure at the top surface of condor's wings</h3>

The pressure at the top surface of condor's wings is due to atmospheric pressure

P(top) = 14.7 Psi = 101,325 Pa

<h3>Pressure at the bottom surface of condor's wings</h3>

The pressure at the bottom surface is due to weight of andean condor.

P = W/A

P(bottom) = 88.2/0.729

P(bottom) = 120.99 Pa

The difference between the pressure at the top surfaces of the condor's wings and the pressure at the bottom surfaces is calculated as;

ΔP = P(top) - P(bottom)

ΔP = 101,325 Pa - 120.99 Pa

ΔP = 101,204 Pa

The complete question is below;

An Andean condor with a wingspan of 270 cm and a mass of 9.00 kg soars along a horizontal path. Model its wings as a rectangle with a width of 27.0 cm.

A stationary siren emits sound of frequency 1000 Hz and wavelength 0.343 m. An observer who is moving toward the siren will meas

Ainat [17]

Answer:

f>1000Hz and wavelength=0.343 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Frequency of stationary siren,f=1000 Hz

Wavelength of stationary sound, $\lambda=0.343 m$

When a observer is moving towards the siren then the frequency increases.

Therefore,an observer who is moving towards the siren measure a frequency >1000 Hz.

The wavelength depends upon the speed of source.

But we are given that siren is stationary.

Therefore, source is not moving and then the wavelength remains same.

f>1000Hz and wavelength=0.343 m
