The apparent change is the Doppler shift

It is called Doppler effect (i.e, apparent change in the frequency of a sound , when the source, the observer and the medium are in the relative motion is called Doppler effect)

When an atom that has no charge looses two electrons it becomes a

alex41 [277]

Answer: it becomes a positive ion

Explanation:

So, when an atom loses 2 electrons there will be no change in the number of neutrons. Therefore, an isotope will not form. Thus, it is concluded that when an atom with no charge loses two electrons, it becomes a positive ion.

A horizontal force acts on an object on a fric- tionless horizontal surface. If the force is halved and the mass of the object i

guapka [62]

(a) If the force is halved and the mass of the object is doubled, the acceleration will be one-fourth as great.

(b) if the force on it is doubled and its mass is halved, the new acceleration will be four times as great.

The force on an object is determined by applying Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

$\frac{F_1}{m_1a_1} = \frac{F_2}{m_2a_2}$

(a)

when the force is halved, F₂ = 0.5F₁,

mass is doubled, m₂ = 2m₁

$\frac{F_1}{m_1a_1} = \frac{0.5F_1}{2m_1a_2} \\\\2m_1a_2F_1 = 0.5F_1 m_1a_1\\\\2a_2 = 0.5a_1\\\\a_2 = \frac{0.5a_1}{2} = \frac{a_1}{2 \times 2} = \frac{a_1}{4} \\\\a_2 = \frac{1}{4} (a_1)$

Thus, If the force is halved and the mass of the object is doubled, the acceleration will be one-fourth as great.

(b)

when the force is doubled, F₂ = 2F₁,

mass is halved, m₂ = 0.5m₁

$\frac{F_1}{m_1 a_1} = \frac{2F_1}{0.5m_1 a_2} \\\\0.5m_1a_2 F_1 = 2F_1m_1a_1\\\\0.5a_2 = 2a_1\\\\a_2 = \frac{2a_1}{0.5} \\\\a_2 = 4(a_1)$

Thus, if the force on it is doubled and its mass is halved, the new acceleration will be four times as great.

If you have 10.0 g of a substance that decays with a half-life of 14 days, then how much will you have after 42 days?

Nat2105 [25]

The formula for the mass that remains:
$m=m_0 \times (\frac{1}{2})^\frac{t}{T}$
m₀ - the initial mass, t - time, T - the half-life

$m_0=10 \ g \\
T=14 \ d \\
t=42 \ d \\ \\
m=10 \times (\frac{1}{2})^\frac{42}{14}=10 \times (\frac{1}{2})^3=10 \times \frac{1}{8}=10 \times 0.125=1.25$

The answer is c. 1.25 g.

Two children who are bored while waiting for their flight at the airport decide to race from one end of the 20-m-long moving sid

QveST [7]

Answer: Phillipe wins the race

Explanation:

Given

Length of track=20 m

Velocity of Phillippe=2 m/s w.r.t sidewalk

Velocity of sidewalk=1.5 m/s

Rena velocity=2 m/s

Therefore absolute velocity of P is 2+1.5=3.5 m/s

Time taken by phillippe $\frac{20}{3.5}+\frac{20}{3.5-1.5}$

$t_P$ =5.714+10=15.714 s

Time taken by rena

$t_r=\frac{20}{2}+\frac{20}{2}=20 s$

as the time taken by phillippe is less than rena therefore Phillippe wins the race.

vivado [14]

I could use math to help with baking and measuring how much I should use for a cake or stuff like that, they also show us how to add our money together to help us with stuff.
Math, is helpful with many jobs, stuff learned in school can help you strategize and school also makes you think outside of the box sometimes, which can help with jobs. Also if you want to do a career with fashion designing or engineering, you can use math for that too. School also gives you the ability to read.
