How are Mercury and Earth's moon similar?

Physics
1 answer:
Brut [27]3 years ago
6 0
In general, the surface of Mercury is similar to the Moon (i.e. heavily cratered due to a lack of a heavy atmosphere to erode away primordial impacts). However, there are some key differences: 1) There are few maria on Mercury and they are small.

Examples of how thermal energy transfer by conduction, convection, or radiation.
____ [38]
Microwave Radiation. Microwave radiation utilizes short, high-frequency waves that penetrate food, which agitates its water molecules to create friction and transfer heat. If you're heating a solid substance, this heat energy is transferred throughout the food through conduction, while liquids do so through convection.

An emergency vehicle blowing its siren is moving
Georgia [21]

The frequency produced by the siren is 631.12 Hz

<h3>Doppler effect</h3>

The variation in frequency when a source of sound moves relative to an observer is determined by the doppler effect.

<h3>Frequency of observer</h3>

So, the frequency of the observer  f' = (v ± v')f/(v ± v") where

f' = 590 Hz

f = frequency of source or siren ,

v = speed of sound = 330 m/s,

v' = speed of observer = 0 m/s (since you are stationary) and

v" = speed of source = 23 m/s

Since the source moves away from the detector, the sign in the denominator is positive and v' = 0 m/s

So, f' = (v + 0)f/(v + v")

f' = vf/(v + v")

Since, we require the frequency of the source, make f subject of the formula, we have

<h3>Frequency of siren</h3>

f = (v + v")f'/v

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

f = (v + v")f'/v

f' = (330 m/s + 23 m/s)  × 590 Hz/330 m/s

f' = 353 m/s × 590 Hz/330 m/s

f' = 208270 m/sHz/330 m/s

f' = 631.12 Hz

The frequency produced by the siren is 631.12 Hz

A 50.0-kg box rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.300 and the
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

147 N

Explanation:

static friction = frictional force max / normal

normal force = mg = 50 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 490 N

0.3 = Frictional force / 490 N

0.3 × 490 N = 147 N

The body will not move because the frictional force is greater than the force applied.

Consider a very low (zero) friction, 5.0 kg skateboard on a ramp at an angle of 15 degrees to the horizontal. What would be the
malfutka [58]
You need to use trigonometry to work this one out. The components of the force are needed. it is a vector, so work out the unbalanced force using trig. you know that the force pulling the 5kg skateboard down is going to be 9.8 * 5 = 49N. As you have the angle it is on, and 49 is the vertical component, you can use Sin(X) = Op/Hyp where x= 15 degress, the opposite is the vertical component (49N) and the hyp is the unbalanced force - which is 79.35. I think. Somebody plz double check me on that one though :P
