That would be the terminal velocity at 9.8 meters per second or 122 mph Because of the air resistance

Cadences.

These cadences are the resulting tensions that chords release from their resting points. This movement is classified from a unstable chord progression to a stable one. Thank you for your question. Please don't hesitate to ask in Brainly your queries.

Consider two waves X and Y traveling in the same medium. The two carry the same amount of energy per unit time, but X has one-se

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

7 / 1

Explanation:

The ratio of their amplitude = one-seventh and the ratio of their amplitude = the ratio of their wavelength

Ax / Ay = λx / λy = 1 / 7

λy / λx = 7 / 1

If this decay has a half-life of 10.2 years, what mass of 60.8g carbon-14 will remain after 20.4 years

OLEGan [10]

20.4 years is 20.4/10.2 = 2 half-life cycles, which means a quarter of the starting mass or 15.2 g will remain after this time.

An elevator is moving down with an acceleration of 3.36 m/s2.

sergeinik [125]

Answer : 413.44N

Here it is given that an elevator is moving down with an acceleration of 3.36 m/s² . And we are interested in finding out the apparent weight of a 64.2 kg man . For the diagram refer to the attachment .

From the elevator's frame ( non inertial frame of reference) , we would have to think of a pseudo force.
The direction of this force is opposite to the direction of acceleration the frame and its magnitude is equal to the product of mass of the concerned body with the acceleration of the frame .
When a elevator accelerates down , the weight recorded is less than the actual weight .

From the Free body diagram ,

$\sf\longrightarrow Weight = mg - ma \\$
