True or false the refraction of a wave is how many wavelengths pass a fixed point each second

No. That's the description of the wave's 'frequency'.

Refraction of a wave is its behavior when it crosses
the boundary between two different media.

False that would be the frequency

A tiger is running across a field. What would happen if the hydrogen ion pumps into the tigers mitochondria stopped functioning

galben [10]

Answer:

The tiger would not be able to produce glucose causing it to stop running

Explanation:

Since the mitochondria is in charge of producing ATP the tiger would not be able to use any glucose causing it to not be able to run.

Sound waves move through molecules. When there are no molecules in a certain space, sound cannot travel - whether in a vacuum or in space.

Answer:

The tension in the cord is $T=\frac{MR^{2}g }{2b^{2}+R^{2} }$

Explanation:

Given:

M = mass

b = radius

R = spool of radius

The equation is:

$bT=(\frac{MR^{2} }{2} )(\frac{a}{b} )\\T=\frac{MR^{2}a }{2b^{2} }$ (eq. 1)

The sum of forces in y:

∑Fy = Mg - T = Ma

$Mg=(M+\frac{MR^{2} }{2b^{2} } )a\\a=\frac{2b^{2}g }{2b^{2}+R^{2} }$

Replacing in eq. 1

$T=\frac{MR^{2} }{2b^{2} } (\frac{2b^{2}g }{2b^{2} +R^{2} } )\\T=\frac{MR^{2}g }{2b^{2}+R^{2} }$

How will unbalanced forces affect the speed and direction of an object

azamat

Answer:

Explanation:

Unbalanced forces will result in the presence of acceleration. The formula

F net = ma

says that if there is a net force present and the object in question has a mass, then an acceleration is present. Now acceleration is constant in this situation because nowhere does it say the acceleration is changing. If acceleration is constant then the velocity is increasing at a steady pace (think linear function!).

The direction of the object depends on the direction that the net force is in. If the net force is to the left, then that object will accelerate to the left.

Hope this helps :)
