C. inertia.  the man is sent flying off the bus because of his weight and the sudden stop of the bus. this effect is called inertia. an example of gravity would be throwing an apple up and having it come to the ground. an example of weight would be putting a man and an elephant on a scale and having the elephant come down while the man goes up.

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The answer to the question is 2.2khz

Explanation:

<em>Let z₁ = 5.4m</em>

<em>Let z₂ = 4.6m</em>

<em>The path difference Δz = z₁-z₂ = 5.4 - 4.6 = 0.8m</em>

<em>For the interference= Δz λ, 2λ, 3λ......</em>

<em>The wavelength λ = 0.8m</em>

<em>The speed of sound v = 344m/s</em>

<em>The frequency f = v/λ = 344/0.8 = 430hz</em>

<em>Now,</em>

<em>f₁ =f, f₂= 2f, f₃ = 3f, f₄= 4f, f₅ =5f which is,</em>

<em>f₁ =f = 430Hz, f₂=2f =860Hz, f₃ =3f =1290Hz f₄ =4f =1720Hz and f₅=5f =2150Hz</em>

<em>f5 = 2120Hz = 2.200Hz </em>

<em>we will convert to two significant figures =2.2kHz</em>

An object of mass m travels along the parabola yequalsx squared with a constant speed of 5 ​units/sec. What is the force on the
Dmitriy789 [7]

Explanation:

The object is moving along the parabola y = x² and is at the point (√2, 2).  Because the object is changing directions, it has a centripetal acceleration towards the center of the circle of curvature.

First, we need to find the radius of curvature.  This is given by the equation:

R = [1 + (y')²]^(³/₂) / |y"|

y' = 2x and y" = 2:

R = [1 + (2x)²]^(³/₂) / |2|

R = (1 + 4x²)^(³/₂) / 2

At x = √2:

R = (1 + 4(√2)²)^(³/₂) / 2

R = (9)^(³/₂) / 2

R = 27 / 2

R = 13.5

So the centripetal force is:

F = m v² / r

F = m (5)² / 13.5

F = 1.85 m

When an electron moves 2.5 m in the direction of an electric field, the change in electrical potential energy of the electron is
anygoal [31]
In the field of electromagnetism, when two charged plates that are situated opposite to each other by a certain distance, it forms an energy called the electric field. This energy is due to the difference in potential energy with respect to distance. Thus,

E = V/d

However, the voltage in volts is energy per coulomb. Thus,
V = (8x10-17 J/electron)*(1electron/1.60218x10^-19 C)
V = 499.32 volts

Therefore,

E = 499.32 volts /2.5 m
E = 199.73 N/C

The electric field that caused the change in potential energy is equal to 199.73 Newtons per Coulomb.
