4. Two forces act on a 2 kg object as shown. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the object?
aleksandrvk [35]

The resultant force on the object is

∑ <em>F</em> = 〈0, 8〉 N + 〈6, 0〉 N = 〈6, 8〉 N

which has a magnitude of

<em>F</em> = √((6 N)² + (8 N)²) = √(100 N²) = 10 N

By Newton's second law, the acceleration has magnitude <em>a</em> such that

<em>F</em> = <em>m a</em>

10 N = (2 kg) <em>a</em>

<em>a</em> = (10 N) / (2 kg)

<em>a</em> = 5 m/s²

so the answer is B.

a ultrasonic wave at 8x10^4 Hz is emitted into a vien where the speed of sound in blood is 1570 m/s. the wave reflects off the r
Aneli [31]

Answer: 0.392 m/s

Explanation:

The Doppler shift equation is:

f'=\frac{V+V_{o}}{V-V_{s}} f

Where:

f=8(10)^{4} Hz is the actual frequency of the sound wave

f'=8.002(10)^{4} Hz is the "observed" frequency

V=1570 m/s is the speed of sound

V_{o}=0 m/s is the velocity of the observer, which is stationary

V_{s} is the velocity of the source, which are the red blood cells

Isolating V_{s}:

V_{s}=\frac{V(f'-f)}{f'}

V_{s}=\frac{1570 m/s(8.002(10)^{4} Hz-8(10)^{4} Hz)}{8.002(10)^{4} Hz}

Finally:

V_{s}=0.392 m/s
