Answer:

The speed will increase.

Explanation:

Wave velocity in a rope can be discribed as :

$v=\sqrt{\frac{T}{\rho} }$ ,

where $v$ is the velocity, $T$ is the tension and, $\rho$ is the linear density of mass (this is mass over rope length).

As it can be seen from the formula, velocity is directly proportional to the tension, this means that if tension increase so it will the velocity.

How are particles in liquids, solids, and gases the same? How are they different?

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Gases, liquids and solids are all made up of atoms, molecules, and/or ions, but the behaviors of these particles differ in the three phases. ... gas are well separated with no regular arrangement. liquid are close together with no regular arrangement. solid are tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern.

Describe the movement of air over 2 nearby land areas, one of which is heated more than the other.

77julia77 [94]

In this case, the air from the warm area will always start moving towards the colder areas because as the temperature in both lands should be equal. This is one of the laws of thermodynamics.

If two charged objects in a laboratory are brought to a distance of 0.22 meters away from each other. What is

zysi [14]

Answer:

$q_2=2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C$

Explanation:

The charge on one object, $q_1=9.9\times 10^{-5}\ C$

The distance between the charges, r = 0.22 m

The force between the charges, F = 4,550 N

Let q₂ is the charge on the other sphere. The electrostatic force between two charges is given by the formula as follows :

$F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\q_2=\dfrac{Fr^2}{kq_1}\\\\q_2=\dfrac{4550\times (0.22) ^2}{9\times 10^9\times 9.9\times 10^{-5}}\\\\q_2=2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C$

So, the charge on the other sphere is $2.47\times 10^{-4}\ C$ .

What is the Difference between accuracy and precision ?

Pie

Answer:

Accuracy measures how close results are to the true or known value. Precision, on the other hand, measures how close results are to one another.

What is the function of the electron transport chain in cellular respiration. why is oxygen needed for the electron transport ch

SpyIntel [72]

1) The function of the electron transport chain is to pump protons in the mitochondrion inter-membrane, thus building up a proton gradient. This gradient will allow the ATP syntheses.

2) Why we need oxygen for the electron transport chain:
At the end of the electron transport chain is the Oxygen that will accept electrons and picks up protons to form water. If the oxygen molecule is not there the electron transport chain will stop running, and ATP will no longer be produced. Basically, we need the oxygen to produce more ATP.
