Answer:

Telescope

Explanation:

Telescope is usually defined as an optical instrument that is commonly used to observe the objects in a magnified way that are located at a large distance from earth. These telescopes are comprised of lenses and curved mirrors that are needed to be arranged in a proper way in order to have a prominent look. It is commonly used by the astronomers.

This was first constructed by Hans Lippershey in the year 1608.

The acceleration of the object may be zero and the velocity of the object may not be equal to zero correct or not
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Acceleration is the change in velocity, not the velocity itself; therefore, an object can have zero velocity but not zero acceleration because the velocity will be changing.

Rooms are fitted with ventilators to let the air move around. The phenomenon involved is:
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

B. Convection

Explanation:

Convection is the process in which heat is transferred from one point to another by the actual movement of the material particles from a region of high temperature to a region of low temperature.

If you blow across the open end of a soda bottle and produce a tone of 250 Hz, what will be the frequency of the next harmonic h
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Generally, the lowest overtone for a pipe open at one end and closed would be at  y / 4  where y represents lambda, the wavelength.

Since F (frequency) = c / y       Speed/wavelength

F2 / F1 = y1 / y2      because c is the same in both cases

F2 = y1/y2 * F1

F2 = 3 F1 = 750 /sec

Note that L = y1 / 4 = 3 y2 / 4 for these wavelengths to fit in the pipe

and y1 = 3 y2

A 0.5 kg basketball moving 5 m/s to the right collides with a 0.05 kg tennis
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

A. 1.4 m/s to the left

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the principle of conservation of momentum. Let's define the velocity signs according to the direction, if the velocity is to the right, a positive sign will be introduced into the equation, if the velocity is to the left, a negative sign will be introduced into the equation. Two moments will be analyzed in this equation. The moment before the collision and the moment after the collision. The moment before the collision is taken to the left of the equation and the moment after the collision to the right, so we have:

M_{before} = M_{after}

where:

M = momentum [kg*m/s]

M = m*v

where:

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

(m_{1} *v_{1} )-(m_{2} *v_{2})=(m_{1} *v_{3} )+(m_{2} *v_{4})

where:

m1 = mass of the basketball = 0.5 [kg]

v1 = velocity of the basketball before the collision = 5 [m/s]

m2 = mass of the tennis ball = 0.05 [kg]

v2 = velocity of the tennis ball before the collision = - 30 [m/s]

v3 =  velocity of the basketball after the collision [m/s]

v4 = velocity of the tennis ball after the collision = 34 [m/s]

Now replacing and solving:

(0.5*5) - (0.05*30) = (0.5*v3) + (0.05*34)

1 - (0.05*34) = 0.5*v3

- 0.7 = 0.5*v

v = - 1.4 [m/s]

The negative sign means that the movement is towards left
