Answer:

B. is the force that resists sliding along a surface.

Explanation:

In simple words friction can be considered as an opposing force. When you slide a ball along a surface it will stop after some time because of the friction between the ball and the surface. Apart from a surface even air around us applies frictional force. This is the reason airplanes have pointed nose to reduce the friction, commonly called as drag. Along with land and air water also applies frictional force and slows things down. This is the reason boats' hull are made pointed.

Which tuning forks will give rise to a beat frequency of 20 Hz when sounded together with a 240 Hz tuning fork?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Use the concept of beat frequency to find the applicable final freqeuncy for 20Hz beat frequency.

Beat can be defined as 'the interference pattern between two sounds of slightly different frequencies0

The expression for beat frequency is given as

f_{beat} = |f_1-f_2|

Where,

f_2 = Final frequency

f_1 = Initial frequency

The beat frequency for us is 25Hz and the initial frequency is 240Hz, then

20= |f_2-240|

Being an absolute value, two values are possible, both in addition and subtraction:

f_2 = 240 \pm 20

The two possible values are

f_2 = 220Hz

f_2 = 260Hz

An electron moving in the direction of the +x-axis enters a magnetic field. If the electron experiences a magnetic deflection in
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

<em>-z axis</em>

Explanation:

According to the left hand rule for an electron in a magnetic field, hold the thumb of the left hand at a right angle to the rest of the fingers, and the rest of the fingers parallel to one another. If the thumb represents the motion of the electron, and the other fingers represent the direction of the field, then the palm will push in the direction of the force on the electron. In this case, the left hand will be held out with the thumb pointing to the right (+x axis), and the palm facing your body (-y axis). The magnetic field indicated by the other fingers will point down in the the -z axis.
