Explain why some objects fall faster than other objects,

Physics
1 answer:
Vikentia [17]3 years ago

objects that are more dense, or have more mass, fall at a faster rate than less dense objects, due to this air resistance. A feather and brick dropped together. Air resistance causes the feather to fall more slowly.

A wave traveling in water has a frequency of 500.0 Hz and a wavelength of 3.00 m. What is the speed of the wave?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

1500 m/s

Explanation:

Recall that for a wave,

Speed = frequency x wavelength

here we are given frequency = 500 Hz and wavelength = 3m

simply substitute into above equation

Speed = 500 Hz x 3m

= 1500 m/s

Smaller mammals use proportionately more energy than larger mammals; that is, it takes more energy per gram to power a mouse tha
timama [110]

Answer:

10,200 Cal. per day

Explanation:

The mouse consumes 3.0 Cal each day, and has a mass of 20 grams. We can use this data to obtain a ratio of energy consumption per mass

\frac{3.0 \ Cal}{20 g} = 0.15 \frac{Cal}{g}.

For the human, we need to convert the 68 kilograms to grams. We can do this with a conversion factor. We know that:

1 \ kg = 1000 \ g,

Now, we can divide by 1 kg on each side

\frac{1 \ kg}{1 \ kg} = \frac{1000 \ g}{1 \ kg},

1 = \frac{1000 \ g}{1 \ kg}.

Using this conversion factor, we can obtain the mass of the human in grams, instead of kilograms. First, lets take:

mass_{human} = 68 \ kg

We can multiply this mass for the conversion factor, we are allowed to do this, cause the conversion factor equals 1, and its adimensional

mass_{human} = 68 \ kg * \frac{1000 \ g}{1 \ kg}

mass_{human} = 68,000 g

Now that we know the mass of the human on grams, we can multiply for our ratio of energy consumption

68,000 \ g * 0.15 \frac{Cal}{g} = 10,200 \ Cal

So, we would need 10,200  Cal per day.

A 1700 W laser emits light with a wavelength of 700 nm into a 3.0 mm diameter beam. What force does the laser beam exert on a co
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

F=5.7×10⁻⁶

Explanation:

Not knowing a formula outright, I decided to follow the units of some relationships I did know. Radiation pressure is defined as force per area and also intensity divided by velocity (the speed of light here of course). Breaking intensity down into power per area and isolating force gave me the relationship F=(Power/Velocity),where power is given and the velocity is a constant.

My work is in the attachment, where I double checked the units too, comment with any questions.
