Force = mass * centripetal acceleration; F = m*a

Centripetal acceleration, a = velocity^2 / radius; a = v^2 / r

F = m * v^2 / r

F = 38 kg * [6.0 m/s]^2 / 24 m = 57 N

Answer: option C) 57 N

Two cellists, one seated directly behind the other in an orchestra, play the same note for the conductor who is directly in fron
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Please see below as the answer is self-explanatory.

Explanation:

  • In order to have a destructive interference, the path difference between the sources of the sound, must be equal to an odd multiple of the semi-wavelength, as follows:
  • ⇒ d = d₂ - d₁ = n*(λ/2)
  • The minimum posible value for this distance, is when n=1, as it can be seen here:
  • dmin = λ/2
  • In any traveling wave, there exists a fixed relationship between the wave speed, the frequency and the wavelength:
  • v = λ*f
  • Therefore, assuming that the speed of sound keeps constant, if the frequency is increased, in order to keep the right side of the expression above balanced, λ must be decreased.
  • As the smallest separation that produces destructive interference is directly proportional to the wavelength, this means that this separation will decrease if the cellists produced a note with a higher frequency.

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

A. when the Sun, Moon and Earth are in a straight line

Explanation:

The highest tide is formed when the sun, moon, and also the earth are in alignment. This high tide is known as spring tides.

Spring tides happen when we have a new moon or a full moon. With the earth, sun and moon aligning. We have lunar and solar tide forming a reinforcement with each other causing high tides or extreme tides. we have collectively, their gravitational pull on water of the earth to become stronger

Luda [366]
<span>As it is uniform circular motion therefore speed is constant. Therefore we can rule out option B. Also in circular motion the direction of velocity vector changes therefore velocity can't be constant. Therefore option B is incorrect as well. Also centripetal acceleration is always towards the center so option D is wrong as well. That implies option A is correct.</span>

When solar flares increase solar wind from the corona what do they cause in earth's upper atmosphere?
Strike441 [17]

They cause magnetic storms. A magnetic storm is a fleeting disturbance of the Earth's magnetosphere. A magnetic storm is caused by a solar wind shock wave associated with solar coronal mass ejections, coronal holes, or solar flares. It typically strikes the Earth's magnetic field 24 to 36 hours after the event.
