Answer:

Explanation:

Convert the mass to kg:

375g = 375/1000kg = 0.375kg

F = ma

-20 = 0.375a

a = -20/0.375

a = -53

The object is accelerating at 53m/s/s backwards assuming that the forward motion is positive.

The human ear canal is about 2.9 cm long and can be regarded as a tube open at one end and closed at the eardrum. What is the fu
solniwko [45]

The frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.

Explanation:

As the ear canal is like a tube with open at one end, the wavelength of sound passing through this tube will propagate 4 times its length of the tube. So wavelength of the sound wave will be equal to four times the length of the tube. Then the frequency can be easily determined by finding the ratio of velocity of sound to wavelength. As the velocity of sound is given as 339 m/s, then the wavelength of the sound wave propagating through the ear canal is  

Wavelength=4*Length of the ear canal

As length of the ear canal is given as 2.9 cm, it should be converted into meter as follows:

wavelength = 4*2.9*10^{-2} =0.116

Then the frequency is determined as

f=c/λ=339/0.116=2922 Hz=2.92 kHz.

So, the frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.

Properties such as luster conductivity and flexibility are used to describe what type of elements
pickupchik [31]
Answer: metals.

Justification:

There are 118  elements which you can find in the periodic table ordered by atomic number. Those elements my be classified into metals, non-metals and metalloids.

The metals are placed on the left side of the periodic table. The metals share the properties of luster, conductivity and flexibility.

The properties of non-metals (which are on the right side of the periodic table) are opposite to those of metals: opaque, low conductivity and brittle.

Metalloids have in between properties.

Copper, for example is a metal: it has luster, is flexible and is highly conductive of the electricity (and temperature).
