Soap is a surfactant that contains hydrophobic or water-fearing and hydrophilic or water-loving ends that  is used for cleaning dirt. These hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties are what causes the surface tension of the fats and oils to lower.

Two instruments produce a beat frequency of 5 Hz. If one has a frequency of 264 Hz, what could be the frequency of the other ins
Lerok [7]

Answer:

259 Hz or 269 Hz

Explanation:

Beat: This is the phenomenon obtained when two notes of nearly equal frequency are sounded together. The S.I unit of beat is Hertz (Hz).

From the question,

Beat = f₂-f₁................ Equation 1

Note: The frequency of the other instrument is either f₁ or f₂.

If the unknown instrument's frequency is f₁,

Then,

f₁ = f₂-beat............ equation 2

Given: f₂ = 264 Hz, Beat = 5 Hz

Substitute into equation 2

f₁ = 264-5

f₁ = 259 Hz.

But if the unknown frequency is f₂,

Then,

f₂ = f₁+Beat................. Equation 3

f₂ = 264+5

f₂ = 269 Hz.

Hence the beat could be 259 Hz or 269 Hz

A bug walks exactly halfway around the edge of a circular cupcake with a diameter of 5 cm what is the distance he traveled and w
adelina 88 [10]

The circumference of a circle is (pi) x (diameter)

The circumference of the cupcake is (pi) x (5 cm)

Halfway around is (1/2) x (pi) x (5 cm) = (2.5 pi cm) = <em>about 7.85 cm</em>

The 'why' appears up above, in the first 2 lines of this solution.

Answer:

Taking forces along the plane

F cos θ - M g sin θ -100 = M a       net of forces along the plane

F = (M a + M g * .5 + 100) / .866     solving for F

F = (80 * 1.5 + 80 * 9.8 * .5 + 100) / .866 = 707 N

F = 707 N acting along the plane

Fn = F sin θ + M g cos θ       forces acting perpendicular to plane

Fn = 707 * 1/2 + 80 * 9.8 * .866 = 1030 Newtons   forces normal to plane

(this would give a coefficient of friction of 100 / 1030 = .097 = Fn)
