Answer:

The support force/ Normal reaction force

Explanation:

Refer to Newtons third law.

"The third law states that when a force acts on a body due to another body, then an equal and opposite force acts simultaneously on that body"

Since we have a downward force acting on your object, in this case gravity/weight, there is an equal and opposite force given off by the surface the object is on. This is called the support force or the normal reaction force

If the velocity of blood flow in the aorta is normally about 0.32 m/s, what beat frequency would you expect if 4.40-MHz ultrasou

dusya [7]

Answer:

The beat frequency is 0.0019 MHz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity = 0.32 m/s

Frequency = 4.40 MHz

Speed of wave = 1540 m/s

We need to calculate the frequency

Case (I),

Observer is moving away from the source

Using Doppler's effect

$f'=\dfrac{v-v'}{v}f$

Where, v' = speed of observer

Put the value into the formula

$f'=\dfrac{1540-0.32}{1540}\times4.40$

$f'=4.399\ MHz$

Case (II),

Cell is as the source of sound of frequency f' and it moving away from the observer.

Using formula of frequency

$f''=\dfrac{v-v_{s}}{v+v_{s}}\times f$

$f''=\dfrac{1540-0.32}{1540+0.32}\times4.399$

$f''=4.3971\ MHz$

We need to calculate the beat frequency

$\Delta f= f'-f''$

$\Delta f=4.399-4.3971=0.0019\ MHz$

Hence, The beat frequency is 0.0019 MHz.

How are kinetic energy potential energy and thermal energy in a substance related?

asambeis [7]

The energy associated with an object's motion is called kinetic energy. ... This is also called thermal energy – the greater the thermal energy, the greater the kinetic energy of atomic motion, and vice versa.
