valkas [14]
Inelastic.
If it was elastic, they'd bump right off each other. But since they've been locked, or stuck together, this is inelastic.

Let's say you have two tuning forks which are supposed to produce the same frequency, 512 Hz. One is of good quality, but the ot
solong [7]

Answer:

= 2 beats per seconds

Explanation:

  • From |f -f'| = modulus of the difference between the frequency given.
  • f = 510Hz and f' = 512Hz
  • Difference between the frequency will give us the number of beat per seconds.
  • i.e 2 beats per seconds

These also shows how to get the period of the tuning forks.

When a falling meteoroid is at a distance above the earth's surface of 2.60 times the earth's radius, what is its acceleration d
Mice21 [21]

The gravitational acceleration at any distance r is given by

g=  \frac{GM}{r^2}

where G is the gravitational constant, M the Earth's mass and r is the distance measured from the center of the Earth.

The Earth's radius is r_e=6.37 \cdot 10^6 m, so the meteoroid is located at a distance of:

r=r_e+2.60 r_e =3.60 r_e =  2.29 \cdot 10^7 m

And by substituting this value into the previous formula, we can find the value of g at that altitude:

g=  \frac{GM}{r^2} =  \frac{(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2})(5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg)}{(2.29 \cdot 10^7 m)^2} =0.75 m/s^2
