olganol [36]3 years ago
7 0
The boiling point is the temperature<span> at which the </span>vapor pressure <span>of a </span>liquid<span> equals the external </span>pressure<span> surrounding the </span>liquid<span>. Therefore, the </span>boiling point<span> of a </span>liquid<span> depends on atmospheric </span>pressure. The boiling point becomes lower as the external pressure<span> is reduced.</span>

What is the value of work done on an object when a 70 newton force moves it 9.0 meters in the same direction as the force
olchik [2.2K]
<span>Work, very simply, equals force times distance (when the force and distance are in the same direction. otherwise you get a little bit of trig added on) \[W=F*\Delta x\] W=70N * 9.0 m = 630 Nm = 630 J</span>

Of the three forces acting on the rock as it slides down the bowl, which (if any) are constant and which are not? explain.
choli [55]

Answer

Hi,

The forces are; weight (gravity), Normal/centripetal force and friction. Force due to gravity is constant where as friction and centripetal are not.

Explanation

Weight is constant, given by the force of gravity on the object. The centripetal force is a function of the angles occurring between the velocity vector and the weight vector that is at right angle with the perpendicular line drawn from the surface. Friction is a function of the centripetal force thus it also varies.

Hope this helps!

A police radar gun uses X-band microwave radiation at a frequency of 12.2 GHz. Microwaves travel at the speed of light, or 3x108
quester [9]

Answer:

A police radar gun uses X-band microwave radiation at a frequency of 13.1 GHz. Microwaves travel at the speed of light, or 3x108 m/s. Since the frequency shift will be small for practical car speeds and difficult to detect, the shifted frequency is compared to the original frequency, and the resulting beat frequency is used to determine the speed of the car.

a.) If Michael is traveling at 29 m/s, what is the resulting beat frequency that the radar gun detects?

ANSWER: 2533 Hz
