A spring scale measures weight because <span>It works by Hooke's Law, which states that the force needed to extend a </span>spring<span> is proportional to the distance that </span>spring<span> is extended from its rest position. Therefore, the </span>scale<span> markings on the </span>spring<span> balance are equally spaced. A </span>spring scale<span> can</span>not measure mass<span>, only </span>weight<span>. hope that helped</span>

Answer:

The answers to your questions are given below

Explanation:

22. The energy of an electromagnetic wave and it's frequency are related by the following equation:

E = hf

Where:

E => is the energy

h => is the Planck's constant

f => is the frequency

From the equation i.e E = hf, we can conclude that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to it's frequency. This implies that an increase in the frequency of the wave will lead to an increase in the energy of the wave and also, a decrease in the frequency will lead to a decrease in the energy of the wave.

23. Gamma ray and radio wave are both electromagnetic waves. All electromagnetic waves has a constant speed of 3×10⁸ m/s in space.

Thus, gamma ray and radio wave have the same speed in space.

I need help answering 30A and B. Help a guy out?
dmitriy555 [2]

Uh so I'm no master at this subject, but all stuffs accelerate at 9.8 m/s squared. So you multiply the 9.8 and the 0.20 it's given for reasons unknown other than that's what I see in my notes... and that gives you 1.96 m/s squared.

As for B, I have no idea. I think you may multiply the 1.96 by 4. Tell me your thoughts and maybe we can work it out together

Five basket ball teams are playing in a tournament. The teams will play with each other only one time. How many games will be pl
77julia77 [94]

<em>Ten games</em> will be played.

The first team can be any one of 5 .  For each of those, the opponent can be any one of the other 4 .

Number of ways to pair them up = (5 x 4) = 20 ways .

<em>BUT</em> ... Whether the Reds play the Blues, or the Blues play the Reds, it's the SAME GAME.  Each possible game shows up twice in the list of 20 ways.  So there are really only 10 different pairs ==> <em>10 games</em> .
