I need a short written description of Newton's three laws.

1 answer:

6 0

Newton’s first law of motion, also called the law on inertia, states that an object continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion unless compelled to change that state by an external force.Newton’s second law of motion states that if a net force acts on an object, it will cause an acceleration of that object.Newton’s third law of motion<span> states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. hope this wasnt two long!</span>

The energy of an electromagnetic wave changes proportionally to which

ozzi

Answer:

D. Frequency

Explanation:

The energy of an electromagnetic wave is proportional to frequency, mathematically it is expressed as;

E ∝ f

E = hf

where;

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js

The equation above can also be expanded to;

$E = hf = h \frac{c}{\lambda}$

where;

c is speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ is the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave

Since the speed of light is constant, we can conclude that the energy of the electromagnetic wave is directly proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to its wavelength.

Therefore, the correct option for direct proportionality is FREQUENCY

Cellular phones use _____?

dangina [55]

Let's see: frequency of cellular phone waves (GSM phones) is (800-1900 MHz). If we look at the table of the electromagnetic spectrum, we can see that this range is contained within the frequencies of the microwaves, which include waves in the range 300 MHz-300 GHz.

So, summarizing, the correct answer is "microwaves".

Two waiters are trying to get through a single door of a kitchen. One pushes on one side of a door 0.567 m from the hinge with a

NISA [10]

Answer:

$275.5 N$

Explanation:

$F_{1}$ = Force on one side of the door by first waiter = 257 N

$F_{2}$ = Force on other side of the door by second waiter

$r_{1}$ = distance of first force by first waiter from hinge = 0.567 m

$r_{2}$ = distance of second force by second waiter from hinge = 0.529 m

Since the door does not move. hence the door is in equilibrium

Using equilibrium of torque by force applied by each waiter

$r_{1} F_{1} = r_{2} F_{2} \\(0.567) (257) = (0.529) F_{2}\\F_{2} = 275.5 N$

The siren on an ambulance emits a sound of frequency 2.80×103Hz. If the ambulance is traveling at 26.0 m/s (93.6 km/h or 58.2 mi

Norma-Jean [14]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the described wavelength through frequency and speed. Mathematically it can be expressed as:

$\lambda = \frac{v}{f}$

Where,

$\lambda =$ Wavelength

f = Frequency

v = Velocity

Our values are given as,

$f = 2.8*10^3Hz$

$v = 340m/s \rightarrow$ Speed of sound

Keep in mind that we do not use the travel speed of the ambulance because we are in front of it. In case it approached or moved away we should use the concepts related to the Doppler effect:

Replacing we have,

$\lambda = \frac{340}{2.8*10^3}$

$\lambda = 0.1214m$

Therefore the frequency that you hear if you are standing in from of the ambulance is 0.1214m
