5N to the left. This is because Jeremy pushes 10 to the left but Amanda does 5, making 5 of the 10 go away. This leaves 5 to the left. So... The answer is C.
Sorry if this is a little confusing to read I’m trying to answer it best I can without being confusing

Its letter C. 5N to the left. Since Jeremy's force in Newtons are higher than Amanda's (in newtons), and since Jeremy's force directs to the left, then the direction of the force will be to the LEFT. Then subtract the higher one to the lower one so that would be: 10N-5N=5N. So it is C. 5N to the left.

What is the ratio of the intensities of an earthquake P wave passing through the Earth and detected at two points 14 km and 49 k
Molodets [167]

Answer:

\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=12.25

Explanation:

r_1 = 14 km

r_2 = 49 km

Intensity of a wave is inversely proportional to distance

I\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}

So,

\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{49^2}{14^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=12.25

The ratio of the intensities is \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=12.25

A certain metal wire has a cross sectional area of 1 mm2 and is 1 m long. when it is hung from the ceiling and a 10 kg mass is h
kvasek [131]
From the Hooke's law , the extension force of an elastic material is directly proportional to the extension. 
That is, F = k e, where F is the force , k is the constant and e is the extension
 F = 10 × 10 = 100 N
e = 1mm or 0.001 m
Hence, k = F/e
                = 100 N/ 0.001
                = 100000 N/m or 100 N/mm

A 6 V battery is connected to a 24 ohm resistor to create a circuit. The 6 V battery is then replaced with a 12 V battery. How d
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

1.) The current is doubled

2.) moving a magnet up and down near the wire

3.) An electric current in the wire produces a magnetic field.

4.) Distance between Particles (m)

Explanation:

1.) When 6 V battery is connected to a 24 ohm resistor to create a circuit, using ohms law, V = IR

Current I = 6/24 = 0.25 A

When the The 6 V battery is replaced with a 12 V battery,

Current I = 12/24 = 0.5 A

Therefore, The current is doubled

2.) Electric current will be induced when moving a magnet up and down near the wire

3.) An electric current in the wire produces a magnetic field.

4.) Distance between Particles (m)

The force of attraction between two different masses is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
