6) True: the car is exerting an equal and opposite force on the truck

7) True: the astronaut can drift back by throwing the tool forward

8) True: the bug exerts an equal and opposite force on you

9) Second Law

Explanation:

6)

This problem can be solved by applying Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force (action) on another object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction) on object A"

In this problem, we can identify the car and the truck as object A and object B. Here we are told that the truck is exerting a force on the car: therefore, according to Newton's third law, the car is also exerting an equal and opposite force on the truck.

Therefore, the statement is true.

7)

This problem can be also solved by thinking in terms of the Newton's third law of motion.

In fact, at the beginning the astronaut is drifting away from the space station. When he throws away the tool, in the forward direction (away from the space station), he exerts a force on the tool: we can identify this force as the action force, and its direction is away from the space station.

As a result, according to Newton's third law, the tool will also exert a reaction force (equal and opposite) on the astronaut: therefore, the force exerted by the tool on the astronaut is toward the space station, and therefore the astronaut will be pushed back towards the station.

Therefore, the statement is true.

8)

Again, this problem can also be explained using Newton's third law.

In fact, the moment you step on the bug, your foot exerts a force (the action force) on the bug, pushing downward.

As a result, according to Newton's third law, the bug exerts back on you an equal and opposite force (upward). The reason you don't feel this force at all is that your mass is much larger than that of the bug, therefore your acceleration is negligible.

Therefore, the statement is true.

9)

This problem can be explained by using Newton's second law, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration. Mathematically:

F=ma

where

F is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

In this problem, the ball slows down as it crosses the field: this means that it has an acceleration (more precisely, a negative acceleration). According to the law, this means also that there is a net, unbalanced force acting on it, in the direction opposite to the motion of the ball. In fact, this force is the force of friction between the ball and the surface.

A train whistle is 580 Hz when stationary. It is moving away from you at 18.8 m/s. What frequency do you hear?
Natalija [7]

Answer

613.63Hz

Explanation:

Fobs = (V/V-Vsource)Force

V=speed of sound

Fobs= (343/343-18.8)580

Fobs= 613.63Hz

Fobs = frequency observed

The speed of sound in ice, water, and steam is shown. What best explains the speed of sound in different states of matter?
Marina86 [1]

The speed of sound is greater in ice (4000 m/s), then in water (1500 m/s), then in air (340 m/s). The explanation for this is the differente state of the matter in the three cases.

In fact, sound waves travel faster in solids (like ice), then in liquids (like water), then in gases (like air). This is because the speed of the sound wave depends on the density of the medium: the greater the density, the faster the sound wave. This can be easily understood by thinking at how a sound wave propagates: a sound wave is a vibration of molecules, which is transmitted throughout the medium by collision of the molecules. Therefore, the smaller the spacing between the molecules (such as in solids), the more efficient is the propagation, and so the sound wave is faster. On the contrary, there is a large spacing between molecules in gases (such as in the air), so there are less collisions between the molecules and so the wave is not transmitted efficiently, and so it has less velocity.

Light rays from stars bend toward smaller angles as they enter Earth's atmosphere. a. Explain why this happens using Snell's law
Grace [21]

Answer:

Following are the answer to this question:

Explanation:

In option (a):

  • The principle of Snells informs us that as light travels from the less dense medium to a denser layer, like water to air or a thinner layer of the air to the thicker ones, it bent to usual — an abstract feature that would be on the surface of all objects. Mostly, on the contrary, glow shifts from a denser with a less dense medium. This angle between both the usual and the light conditions rays is referred to as the refractive angle.  
  • Throughout in scenario, the light from its stars in the upper orbit, the surface area of both the Earth tends to increase because as light flows from the outer atmosphere towards the Earth, it defined above, to a lesser angle.

In option (b):

  • Rays of light, that go directly down wouldn't bend, whilst also sun source which joins the upper orbit was reflected light from either a thicker distance and flex to the usual, following roughly the direction of the curve of the earth.  
  • Throughout the zenith specific position earlier in this thread, astronomical bodies appear throughout the right position while those close to a horizon seem to have been brightest than any of those close to the sky, and please find the attachment of the diagram.
