Bob is pushing a box across the floor at a constant speed of 1.2 m/s, applying a horizontal force whose magnitude is 75 N. Alice

is pushing an identical box across the floor at a constant speed of 2.4 m/s, applying a horizontal force.
What is the magnitude of the force that Alice is applying to the box?

Answer:75 N

Explanation:

Given

Bob is pushing the box with a force of 75 N with constant speed. Constant speed indicates that net force on the block is zero i.e. friction force is balancing the applied force.

so friction force f=75 N

If Alice is pushing an identical box with constant speed so net force acting on box must be equal to an applied force.

As the friction force is 75 N so Alice must be applying a force of 75 N

Which material is more closely related to the styrofoam? a. heat exchanger b. diffuser c. insulator d. electrical conductor
nirvana33 [79]

The material that is more closely related to the Styrofoam insulator.

Styrofoam is the term that is used for polystyrene foam in a trademark form. It is a petroleum-based plastic.

Keeping something warm includes the stopping of the transfer of heat from one object to another. This is how insulation works.

Styrofoam is an insulator, which means it'll help keep the heat from the environment out of your cooler. However, you'll still need cooling agents (like ice packs) to make the cooler cold in the first place.

Styrofoam is usually made mostly of air, which means it is a poor conductor of heat, but an excellent convector. It traps the air in small pockets, which blocks the flow of heat energy. This reduces both conduction and convection and makes Styrofoam a good insulator.

What causes irregular galaxies to be irregular
Mariulka [41]

Irregular galaxies get their odd shapes in many ways. One way irregular galaxies are formed is when galaxies collide or come close to one another, and their gravitational forces interact. Another source of irregular galaxies may be very young galaxies that have not yet reached a symmetrical state.

A music fan at a swimming pool is listening to a radio on a diving platform. The radio is playing a constant- frequency tone whe
joja [24]

Answer:

The Doppler Effect is given by the following relation;

f' = \left (\dfrac{v + v_0}{v - v_s} \right) \times f

Where;

f' = The frequency the observer hears

f = Actual frequency of the wave

v = The velocity of the sound wave

v_o = The velocity of the observer

v_s = The velocity of the source

Where the observer is stationary, we have;

(i) When the source is moving in the direction of the observer

f' = \left (\dfrac{v }{v - v_s} \right) \times f

(ii) When the source is receding from the observer, we have;

f' = \left (\dfrac{v }{v + v_s} \right) \times f

Therefore;

(a) A person left behind on the platform

For a person left behind on the platform, we have that the radio source is receding, therefore, we have;

f' = \left (\dfrac{v }{v + v_s} \right) \times f

(1) Given that (v + v_s) > v, therefore, v < (v + v_s), f' < f, the frequency heard by the person left on the platform, f', is smaller (lower) than the frequency produced by the radio

(2) The frequency is not constant as the speed of the source is increasing while it under the acceleration due to gravity

(3) During the fall, the speed of the source continuously increases under the effect of gravitational attraction and therefore the frequency heard by the person on the platform becomes progressively smaller

(b) A person down below floating on a rubber raft

For the the person down below on the rubber raft, the radio source is advancing

Therefore, the radio source is moving towards the person at rest down on the rubber raft, therefore, we have;

f' = \left (\dfrac{v }{v - v_s} \right) \times f

(1) Given that (v - v_s) < v, therefore, f' > f, the frequency heard by the person down below floating on the rubber raft, f', is greater (higher) than the frequency produced by the radio

(2) The frequency is not constant as the speed of the source is increasing while it under the acceleration due to gravity

(3) During the fall, the speed of the source continuously increases under the effect of gravitational attraction and therefore the frequency heard by the person on the platform becomes progressively greater (higher)

densk [106]
From the given problem, a limit on the depression of a building is placed at 20 centimeters. To solve how many floors can be safely added, a quantity of how many cm will a building sink for each floor that is added is needed. Unfortunately, it is not found anywhere in the problem. However, we can provide a formula to solve for the depression. This is as follows:

Building depression < 20 cm

Building depression = (cm depression per floor) * (no. of floors)
