Answer:

Explanation:

The hearing range is 20-20,000 Hz above 20,000 Hz is called ultrasonic sound and below 20 Hz is called infrasound

Consider two children sitting on a merry-go-round, with one closer to the outer edge and one closer to the center. show answer N

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

They both have the same angular speed.

Explanation:

The mathematical formula for angular speed is:

$w=\frac{2\pi}{T}$

where $w$ is angular speed, $2\pi$ is a constant, and $T$ is the period (the time it takes the marry-go-round to complete a lap).

What we can see from the formula is that, since the $2\pi$ does not change its value, the angular speed depends only on the period T.

In this case for both the children closer to the outher edge and for the children closer to the center, the time to complete a lap is the same, because the time does not depend on where they are sitting in the marry go round. This means that the period for both is the same.

Thus, since the period for both is the same, the angular speed given by

$w=\frac{2\pi}{T}$ will also be the same

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

E = -4000 N / C

Explanation:

The potential and electric field are related

V = - E s

E = - V / s

we reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

s = 4 mm (1 m / 1000 mm) = 0.004 m

we calculate

E = - 16 /0.004

E = -4000 N / C

What is the radius of a communications satellite’s orbital path that is in a uniform circular orbit around Earth and has a perio

pantera1 [17]

If the period of a satellite is T=24 h = 86400 s that means it is in geostationary orbit around Earth. That means that the force of gravity Fg and the centripetal force Fcp are equal:

Fg=Fcp

m*g=m*(v²/R),

where m is mass, v is the velocity of the satelite and R is the height of the satellite and g=G*(M/r²), where G=6.67*10^-11 m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻², M is the mass of the Earth and r is the distance from the satellite.

Masses cancel out and we have:

G*(M/r²)=v²/R, R=r so:

G*(M/r)=v²

r=G*(M/v²), since v=ωr it means v²=ω²r² and we plug it in,

r=G*(M/ω²r²),

r³=G*(M/ω²), ω=2π/T, it means ω²=4π²/T² and we plug that in:

r³=G*(M/(4π²/T²)), and finally we take the third root to get r:

r=∛{(G*M*T²)/(4π²)}=4.226*10^7 m= 42 260 km which is the height of a geostationary satellite.

These spectra are from the same element. Which is an emission spectrum, which an absorption spectrum?

RSB [31]

Answer:

D. Top is emission; bottom absorption.

Explanation:

Emission and spectrum of elements are due to the element absorbing or emitting wavelength of e-m energy. Elementary particles of elements can absorb energy from a ground state to enter an excited state, creating an absorption spectrum, or they can lose energy and fall back to a lower energy state, creating an emission spectrum. A simple rule to differentiate between an emission and an absorption spectrum is that: "all absorbed wavelength is emitted, but not all emitted wavelength is absorbed."

From the image, the lines indicates wavelengths. We can see that all of the wavelengths of the bottom absorption spectrum coincides with some of the wavelength of the upper emission wavelengths.
