Indicate whether the statement is true or false. A force can be simply defined as a push or a pull.

1 answer:

6 0

TRUE

The force that opposes the movement of an object through water is called drag. This is a type of frictional force. This force normally depends on the density and the viscosity of the fluid in question. The liquid which has more density and more viscosity or stickiness will produce a greater amount of drag force on an object than a fluid that is less dense and less viscous in nature. River water normally has less drag than that of sea water.

When a piano tuner strikes both the A on the piano and a 440 Hz tuning fork, he hears a beat every 2 seconds. The frequency of t

AysviL [449]

Answer:

The frequency is $f = 439.5 \ Hz$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The frequency of the tuning fork is $f_t = 440 \ Hz$

The beat period is $T = 2 \ s$

Generally the beat frequency is mathematically represented as

$f_b = \frac{1}{T}$

$f_b = \frac{1}{2}$

$f_b = 0.5 \ Hz$

The beat frequency is also represented mathematically as

$f_b = f_t - f$

Where $f$ is the frequency of the piano

$f = 440 - 0.5$

$f = 439.5 \ Hz$

A 7950-kg railroad car travels alone on a level frictionless track with a constant speed of 15.0 m/s . A 2950-kg load, initially

Alchen [17]

The new speed of car is 10.9 m/s

<h3 />

According to the principle of momentum conservation, momentum is only modified by the action of forces as they are outlined by Newton's equations of motion; momentum is never created nor destroyed inside a problem domain.

Mass of the railroad car, m₁ = 7950 kg

Mass of the load, m₂ = 2950 kg

It can be assumed as the speed of the car, u₁ = 15 m/s

Initially, it is at rest, u₂ = 0

Let v is the speed of the car. It can be calculated using the conservation of momentum as :

$m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = (m_1 + m_2) v$

$v =\frac{m_1u_1}{m_1+m_2}$

$v = \frac{7950*15}{7950+2950}$

$v= 10.9 m/s$

Therefore, the new speed of care is 10.9 m/s

A baseball hits a car, breaking its window and triggering its alarm which sounds at a frequency of 1210 Hz. What frequency (in H

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The frequency of sound heard by the boy is 1181 Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of sound from alarm $f_{0} = 1210\ Hz$

Speed = -8.25 m/s

Negative sign show the boy riding away from the car

Speed of sound = 343

We need to calculate the heard frequency

Using formula of frequency

$f = f_{0}(\dfrac{v+v_{0}}{v-v_{s}})$

Where, $f_{0}$ = frequency of source

$v_{0}$ = speed of observer

$v_{s}$ = speed of source

$v$ = speed of sound

Put the value into the formula

$f=1210\times\dfrac{343+(-8.25)}{343-0}$

here, source is at rest

$f=1180.8\ Hz$

$f=1181\ Hz$

Hence, The frequency of sound heard by the boy is 1181 Hz.

Explain why you cannot use mass or volume alone to identify substances.

Alex17521 [72]

Objects can have the same mass (but different compositions). Only mass or volume cannot tell you if the object is solid or volumes) or same volume (but different masses)
