Answer:

Acceleration

Explanation:

can you mark me brainlies

So, if an object travels in a curved path, it changes velocity, and, thus, accelerates. This acceleration must be tied to a force. ... Therefore, whenever an object travels in a curved path, there must be an unbalanced force acting upon it. It is important to understand that all this may occur without a change in speed.t

What is the speed of light? What is the speed of sound?

Rasek [7]

Answer:

speed of light simulating traveling at the speed of light. Speed of light, speed at which light waves propagate through different materials. In particular, the value for the speed of light in a vacuum is now defined as exactly 299,792,458 metres per second

The speed of sound is the distance travelled per unit of time by a sound wave as it propagates through an elastic medium

A horizontal beam of light of intensity 25 W/m2 is sent through two polarizing sheets. The polarizing direction of the first mak

Zina [86]

Answer:

option (B)

Explanation:

Intensity of unpolarised light, I = 25 W/m^2

When it passes from first polarisr, the intensity of light becomes

$I'=\frac{I_{0}}{2}=\frac{25}{2}=12.5 W/m^{2}$

Let the intensity of light as it passes from second polariser is I''.

According to the law of Malus

$I'' = I' Cos^{2}\theta$

Where, θ be the angle between the axis first polariser and the second polariser.

$I'' = 12.5\times Cos^{2}15$

I'' = 11.66 W/m^2

I'' = 11.7 W/m^2

A Meteorite Strikes On October 9, 1992, a 27-pound meteorite struck a car in Peekskill, NY, leaving a dent 22 cm deep in the tru

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Acceleration of the meteorite, $a=-38409.09\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

A Meteorite after striking struck a car, v = 0

Initial speed of the Meteorite, u = 130 m/s

Distance covered by Meteorite, s = 22 cm = 0.22 m

We need to find the magnitude of its deceleration. It can be calculated using the third equation of motion as :

$a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}$

$a=\dfrac{-(130)^2}{2\times 0.22}$

$a=-38409.09\ m/s^2$

So, the deceleration of the Meteorite is $-38409.09\ m/s^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

A cello string 0.75 m long has a 220 hz fundamental frequency. find the wave speed along the vibrating string. answer in units o

maxonik [38]

For fundamental frequency of a string to occur, the length of the string has to be half the wavelength. That is,

1/2y = L, where L = length of the string, y = wavelength.

Therefore,
y = 2L = 2*0.75 =1.5 m

Additionally,
y = v/f Where v = wave speed, and f = ferquncy

Then,
v = y*f = 1.5*220 = 330 m/s
