It depends. While slowing down acceleration will have negative sign but the velocity depends upon the initial point sonce velocity is a vector quantity if it is going back towards the initial position it will reduce but if it passes the initial position and goes back it will have negative sign....so it totally depends upon the situation.

Before scientists come up with a scientific question, what do they have to do first?
Mademuasel [1]
Scientist would check what other scientists have said before they come up with their own scientific question. That way they can record the results from the others and compare them with their own findings when they conduct their own experiments and record the findings.

Two loudspeakers are placed on a wall 3.00 m apart. A listener stands 3.00 m from the wall directly in front of one of the speak
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Part a)

\Delta \phi = 2.2 \pi

Part b)

f = 411.3 Hz

Explanation:

As we know that the observer is standing in front of one speaker

So here the path difference of the two sound waves reaching to the observer is given as

\Delta x = 3\sqrt2 - 3

\Delta x = 1.24 m

now phase difference is related with path difference as

\Delta \phi = \frac{2\pi}{\lambda}(\Delta x)

\Delta \phi = \frac{2\pi}{\lambda}(1.24)

here in order to find the wavelength

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

\lambda = \frac{340}{300} = 1.13

now we have

\Delta \phi = \frac{2\pi}{1.13}(1.24) = 2.2\pi

Part b)

Now we know that when phase difference is odd multiple of \pi

then in that case the the sound must be minimum

So nearest value for minimum intensity would be

\Delta \phi = 3\pi

so we have

3\pi = \frac{2\pi}{\lambda}(1.24)

so we have

\lambda = 0.827

now we have

\frac{340}{f} = 0.827

f = 411.3 Hz

The Sears Tower vibrates back and forth, it makes about 8.6
Leni [432]

Answer: Frequency is 0.143 Hz; Period is 7 seconds

Explanation:

Number of vibrations = 8.6

Time required = 60 seconds

Period (T) = ?

Frequency of the vibrations (F) = ?

A) Recall that frequency is the number of vibrations that the Sears tower completes in one second.

i.e Frequency = (Number of vibrations / time taken)

F = 8.6/60 = 0.143Hz

B) Period, T is inversely proportional to frequency. i.e Period = 1/Frequency

T = 1/0.143Hz

T = 7 seconds

Thus, the frequency and period of the vibrations of the Sears Tower are 0.143 Hz

and 7 seconds respectively.

An Atwood machine is constructed using a
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

a=1.03 m/s²

Explanation:

given                                  required

dist=22.1 cm                    a=?

m1=2.1 kg

m2=1.56 kg

m3=1.93 kg

g=9.8 m/s²

solution

there are three forces on this system so we can solve by using newton's second law as follows

t1,t2,and weight of are the only forces acted on the system,

if we take the system on the left mass m3

-m3a=t2-m3g

-1.93 kg×a=t2-1.93 kg×9.8 m/s²

-1.93 kg×a=t2-18.91 N................................ eq 1

take at the right mass m2

m2a=t2-m2×g

1.56 kg×a=t2-1.56 kg×9.8 m/s²

1.56 kg×a=t2-15.288 N...................................2

add the two equations simultaneously and then solve for a,

-1×(-1.93 kg×a=t2-18.91 N) multiply by -1 the first and add the two equations

1.56 kg×a=t2-15.288 N

3.49 kg×a=3.622 N

a=1.03 m/s²

I would like to know why this is the correct answer
Helen [10]

The acceleration of the object if the net force is decreased = 0.13 m/s²

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

A net force of 0.8 N acting on a 1.5-kg mass.

The net force is decreased to 0.2 N

Required

The acceleration of the object if the net force is decreased

Solution

Newton's 2nd law :

\tt \sum F=m.a

The mass used in state 1 and 2 remains the same, at 1.5 kg

  • state 1

ΣF=0.8 N

m=1.5 kg

The acceleration, a:

\tt a=\dfrac{\sum F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{0.8}{1.5}\\\\a=0.53`m/s^2

  • state 2

ΣF=0.2 N

m=1.5 kg

The acceleration, a:

\tt a=\dfrac{\sum F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{0.2}{1.5}\\\\a=0.13~m/s^2
