The length of stereocilia actually vary from 10 to 50 micrometers. Again, assuming that they behave like simple pendula, over wh

at frequency range of sound waves would they resonate. (The actual frequency range of human hearing is 20 Hz 20,000 Hz, so might there be other mechanisms involved and/or might the pendular model be rather oversimplified?)
A. About 70 Hz -160 Hz.
B. About 440 Hz - 1000 Hz.
C. About 20 Hz - 50 Hz.
D. About 0.07 to 0.16 Hz.

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the period based on variables such as gravity, distance and frequency.

By definition, know that the Period is

T_1 = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

Where,

L = Length

g = Gravity

At the same time, frequency can be defined as,

f_1 = \frac{1}{T_1}

So using this for 10\mu m we have that,

T_1 = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

T_1 = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{10*10^{-6}}{9.8}}

T_1 = 0.635*10^{-2}s

Then the frequency is

f_1 = \frac{1}{T_1}

f_1 = \frac{1}{0.635*10^{-2}}

f_1 = 157.6\approx 160Hz

For the second length of 50\mu m we have that

T_1 = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

T_1 = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{5*10^{-5}}{9.8}}

T_1 = 1.4*10^{-2}s

Then the frequency is

f_1 = \frac{1}{T_1}

f_1 = \frac{1}{1.4*10^{-2}}

f_1 = 70Hz

Therefore the correct answer is A.

What is the only component of scalar quantities?
Bad White [126]

Answer:

Scalar quantities have a size or magnitude only and need no other information to specify them. Thus, 10 cm, 50 sec, 7 litres and 3 kg are all examples of scalar quantities.

Sort the items based on whether they are simple machines or compound machines.
Tom [10]

Answer:

Simple machine: pair of tongs, seesaw and wheelbarrow

Compound machine: sewing machine, fishing rod and reel and crane.

Explanation:

Simple machine is the simplest device to use mechanical advantages. It has simplest mechanism to multiply the magnitude of force.

So, pair of tongs, seesaw and wheelbarrow are the example of simple machine because their mechanism is simplest.

Compound machine is a device that is made up of more than one simple machine.

so, sewing machine, fishing rod and reel and crane are example of compound machine because these devices shows more than one machine in it.

Thus, classification is as follows:

Simple machine: pair of tongs, seesaw and wheelbarrow

Compound machine: sewing machine, fishing rod and reel and crane.

A proton is going 2,000 m/s into a magnetic field of 300 T. How much force does it feel. The charge of a proton = 1.602 x 10^-19
NemiM [27]
This depends on the direction of the velocity vector to the magnetic field vector. The force is F=q(VxB)  ("x" is the cross product.)  The max force is when V and B are perpendicular.  Then F=qVB = (1.602e-19)(2000)(300) = 9.612e-14 N
