Allen and Jason are chucking a speaker around. On one particular throw, Allen throws the speaker, which is playing a pure tone o
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply Doppler's effect of sound .

speaker is the source , Jason is the observer . Source is moving at 10 m /s , observer is moving at  6 m/s .

apparent frequency = f_o\times\frac{V+v_o}{ V-v_s}

V is velocity of sound , v₀ is velocity of observer and v_s is velocity of source and f_o is real frequency of source .

Here V = 340 m/s , v₀ is 6 m/s , v_s is 10 m/s . f_o = f

apparent frequency =  f\times \frac{340+6}{340-10}

= f\times \frac{346}{330}

So m = 346 , n = 330 .

(a) The electric potential due to a point charge is given by V = kq⁄r where q is the charge, r is the distance from q and k = 8.
LiRa [457]

Answer:

a)  [volts] = [N m / C],

b) The lines or surface that has the same potential are called equipotential

c) the equipotential lines must also be perpendicular to the electric field lines

Explanation:

a) find the units of the volt

the electric potential energy is

             V = k q / r

             V = [N m² / C²] C / m

              V = [N m / C]

The electric potential is defined as

             V = E .s

             V = [N / C] [m]

             V = [N m / C] = [volt]

we see that in the two expressions the same result is obtained therefore the volt is

            [volts] = [N m / C]

b) The lines or surface that has the same potential are called equipotential surfaces, the great utility of these lines or surfaces is that a face can be displaced on it without doing work.

c) The electric potential is defined as the gradient of the electric field

             v =  - \frac{dE}{dx} i^

therefore the equipotential lines must also be perpendicular to the electric field lines

According to newtos first law of motion. what is required to make a object slow down.
ladessa [460]

Answer:

Friction

Explanation:

Friction is a force that slows down moving objects. If you roll a ball across a shaggy rug, you can see that there are lumps and bumps in the rug that make the ball slow down. The rubbing, or friction, between the ball and the rug is what makes the ball stop rolling. External Force is required.
