I think it's either A or C because on B an object's mass can't change unless it is on a different planet, and on D it doesn't make sense unless the wind is blowing.

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When a penny is dropped from a height of 20 meters then it will achieve an acceleration.

As acceleration is the rate of change in velocity of an object with respect to time. Therefore, the velocity does not remain constant.

Whereas mass of the penny will remain the same as it will not get affected when it falls. Also, there will be no change in direction of the penny as it is falling only in one direction.

The acceleration of penny is due to the force of gravity.

Thus, we can conclude that the force of gravity causes it to accelerate.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

In  closed organ pipe notes with odd harmonics are produced and in open organ pipe notes with all odd and even harmonics are produced. notes with frequencies 600, 800 and 1000 Hz are produced. These are 3 , 4 and 5 times 200 Hz. ie both odd and even times of 200 . So fundamental frequency appears to be 200 Hz. There is no note available between 800 and 1000. It also indicates that 200 Hz is the fundamental frequency and the pipe is open at both ends.

The primary coil of a transformer contains 100 turns; the secondary has 200 turns. The primary coil is connected to a size aa ba
tester [92]

Answer:

3 volts

Explanation:

Number of turns in primary coil = N_{p} = 100

Number of turns in secondary coil = N_{s} = 200

Voltage across primary coil = V_{p} = 1.5 volts

Voltage across secondary coil = V_{s} = ?

In a transformer, the ratio of number of turns of primary to secondary coil is equal to the ratio of the respective voltages i.e.

\frac{N_{p} }{N_{s} } =\frac{V_{p} }{V_{s} }\\

Using the given values, we get:

\frac{100}{200}=\frac{1.5}{V_{s} }\\V_{s}=1.5 \times \frac{200}{100}\\V_{s}=3

Thus, the voltage measure across secondary coil would be 3 volts

An automobile to be transported by ship is raised 8.2m above the dock. If it's GPE is 63,405 J what is the car's mass?
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

m = 788.2[kg]

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body is defined as the product of mass by gravitational acceleration by height. And it can be calculated by means of the following equation.

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

Epot = potential energy = 63405 [J]

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81[m/s²]

h = elevation = 8.2[m]

Now replacing:

63405=m*9.81*8.2\\m=788.2[kg]
