The correct choice is

D. 22 Hz and 42 Hz.

In fact, the beat frequency is given by the difference between the frequencies of the two waves:

f_B = |f_1 -f_2|

In this problem, the beat frequency is f_B=20 Hz, therefore the only pair of frequencies that gives a difference equal to 20 Hz is

D. 22 Hz and 42 Hz.

Which property best makes radio waves safe for diagnosing illnesses through magnetic resonance imaging?
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

It is used in MRI because it does not damage cells

Radio waves are used for space research because they have very long wavelengths

Explanation:

Many parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are applied in clinical diagnosis and treatment of illnesses. However, these highly ionizing radiation damage cells and its dosage must be carefully managed to avoid creating radiation related health problems for the patients.

Radio waves can be used in MRI without issues because the energy of the radiation is not sufficient to cause damage to cells but is sufficient to provide images for the sake of medical diagnosis.

Secondly, radio waves have long wavelength. This property is suitable for long range

communication. Hence it can be used in space research

If you slosh the water back and forth in a bathtub at the correct frequency, the water rises first at one end and then at the ot
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Velocity(v) = frequency(f) × wavelength

f = 0.3165

Wavelength = 2×length(L)

L = 157cm

Convert the length in centimetres to metre = 1.57m

v = 2×1.57 × 0.3165

v = 0.99m/s

Approx. 1m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of a wave is the product of its frequency and it's wavelength. The frequency is already known. The wavelength is the distance between two successive wave crests which is formed by sloshing water back and forth in the bath tub. Sloshing water to one end of the tub will produce a wave crest first at that end then the other completing a cycle. The wavelength will be twice the length of the bath tub as it is the distance that both crests are formed.

Wave crest is the highest point of a wave, and in this case is where the water rises to a high point in the bath tub

A 350-N child is in a swing that is attached to a pair of ropes 2.10 m long. Find the gravitational potential energy of the chil
o-na [289]

Answer:

a)  U = 735 J , b) U = 125.7 J , c)   U = 0 J

Explanation:

The gravitational power energy is

      U = mg y - mg y₀

The last value is a constant, for simplicity we can make it zero, if the lowest point is at the origin of the coordinate system, which in this case we will place in the lowest part

a) Rope is horizontal

The height in this case is the same length of the rope

     y = 2.10 m

    w = mg = 350 N

    U = 350 2.10

    U = 735 J

b) when the angle is 34º

     y = L - L cos 34

    y = L (1- cos34)

    y = 2.10 (1- cos 34)

    y = 0.359 m

    U = 350 0.359

    U = 125.7 J

c) in this case this point coincides with the reference system

     y = 0

     U = 0 J
