A).  600,000 Hz  or  600 KHz
Yes.  Commercial broadcasters operate here.
This is the '600' on your AM radio dial.

B).  60 Hz
No.  In principle, this frequency might be used for communication or
commercial broadcasting, but it suffers from two inconvenient truths:
-- An efficient antenna for 60 Hz ... either transmitting or receiving ...
needs to be almost 780 miles long.
-- This is the frequency of the electric power utility in the US and
Canada, so every outlet, wire, cable, lamp cord, and electric line
on a pole RADIATES a little bit of signal at this frequency.  That's
an awful lot of interference.

C).  6,000,000 Hz  or  6 MHz
There's a lot of broadcasting activity here, but it's not commercial
music, news, and sports into local homes and cars. 
It's foreign short-wave broadcast, bringing news, propaganda, and
culture from one country to another.  Pretty interesting to browse.

D).  6,000 Hz  or  6 KHz.
No.  Not used for communication, for an interesting reason:
This frequency is smack in the middle of the human hearing range.
So if it were used for communication ... with high-power transmitters
here and there ... then you wouldn't hear it in the air.  But wherever
wires were being used to carry sound ... your stereo's speaker wires,
wires from your player to your ear-buds, wires to the telephones in
your house etc ... the wires would act as antennas, picking up 
broadcasts at 6 KHz, and the broadcasts would get into everything.
Not a smart plan.

Magnitude of acceleration

Explanation:

We know that acceleration can increase depending in the force applied on an object, any object with a greater mass will apply a greater force. F = M(a).

A 9.0-kg bowling ball on a horizontal, frictionless surface experiences a net force of 6.0 n. what will be its acceleration?
Vladimir [108]

This question involves the concepts of Newton's Second Law of Motion.

The acceleration of the bowling ball will be "0.67 m/s²".

<h3>Newton's Second Law of Motion</h3>

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, when an unbalanced force is applied on an object, it produces an acceleration in it, in the direction of the applied force. This acceleration is directly proportional to the force applied and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. Mathematically,

F=ma\\\\a=\frac{F}{m}

where,

  • a = acceleration = ?
  • F = Magnitude of the applied force = 6 N
  • m = Mass of the ball = 9 kg

Therefore,

a=\frac{6\ N}{9\ kg}

a = 0.67 m/s²

Discuss any inventions in history which are related to magnetism by referring to Faraday disc? ​
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Faraday invented the electromagnetic rotation.

Explanation:

Faraday invented a device called electromagnetic rotation, Faraday got a rotation with magnetic force, he used a cable, mercury, and a magnet.

The cable would rotate around the magnet, this would be a beginning for the electromagnetic technology.

For example:

The Homopolar motor or called electric motor was created for Faraday's invention.

We can find electric motor in Washing machines, fans, turbines, even in motorcycles and electric cars.
