two people, each with a mass of 70 kg, are wearing inline skates and are holding opposite ends of a 15m rope. One person pulls f

orward on the rope by moving hand over hand and gradually reeling in more of the rope. In doing so, he exerts a force of 35N [backwards] on the rope. This causes him to accelerate toward the other person. Assuming that the friction acting on the skaters is negligible, how long will it take for them to meet? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

7.75 s

Explanation:

Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

35 N = (70 kg) a

a = 0.5 m/s²

Given v₀ = 0 m/s and Δx = 15 m:

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

(15 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (0.5 m/s²) t²

t = 7.75 s

The Doppler shift can be observed when ____________. Check all that apply. Group of answer choices the source of sound moves tow
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

the source of sound moves towards an observe

Explanation:

The Doppler effect is related to waves such as sound or light. the effect causes an increase or decrease in the frequency of sound light or other waves when the souces either move towards or away from the observer. For example the siren of the train to a person on the platform, the redshift seen by astronomers.

Therefore, The Doppler shift can be observed when the source of sound moves towards an observer From a place closer to the observer than the last wave's crest, each consecutive wave crest is sent. Each wave therefore, takes a little less time than the preceding wave to reach the observer.

Explain why the reflection of light off ground glass changes from diffuse to specular if you spill water on it
Basile [38]
Because when you spill water on it, the reflection comes from the surface of the water, not the ground glass.

Suppose that you changed the area of the bottom surface of the friction cart without changing its mass, by replacing the Teflon
insens350 [35]

Answer:

in this case the weight of the vehicle does not change , consequently the friction force should not change

Explanation:

The friction force is a macroscopic manifestation of the interactions of the molecules between the two surfaces, this force in the case of solid is expressed by the relation

          fr = μ N

          W-N= 0

          N = W

as in this case the weight of the vehicle does not change nor does the Normal one, consequently the friction force should not change
