The answer is C. 'there is no movement of heat' for plato users, i got 100% on the test :)

Answer: Movement of heat takes place from object with higher temperature to one with lower temperature until both objects are in thermal equilibrium.

Explanation:

Zeroth law of thermodynamics states that: Two objects which are not in thermal equilibrium that is have different temperatures when placed in contact would attain thermal equilibrium after some time. The heat from hotter object would transfer to colder one until equilibrium is achieved.

A force has direction and contact

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. It is measured in the SI unit of newton (N). Force is represented by the symbol F. The original form of Newton's second law states that the net force acting upon an object is equal to the rate at which its momentum changes with time.

Other units: dyne, pound-force, poundal, kip, kilopond

SI unit: newton (N)

Common symbols: F→, F, F

what would you say is the strongest force in our galaxy? the sun, moon, or earth. support the answer with at least two facts.

Lilit [14]

I think sun because:
-Sun is the strongest force. It has the largest gravitational pull.
-the moon and Earth both depend on the Sun for different things.
-The sun is not greatly affected by the Moo or the Earth.

Which of these common substances is a heterogeneous mixture?

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

(C) If the composition of a mixture appears uniform no matter where you sample it, is homogeneous; sand on a beach *IS HETEROGENEOUS* because when you look at it up close, you can identify different types of particles, such as sand, shells, and organic matter.

Explanation:

(A) Pure Water is a collection of solely H2O molecules therefore Pure Water is classified as a *Compound*.

(B) Table Salt is NOT a heterogeneous mixture because the particles of salt can't be separated, and it is a *Pure Substance*.

(D) Maple Syrup is a homogeneous mixture because the solutes are fully dissolved and not easily identified. In other words, Maple Syrup is uniform throughout.

-Hope this helps!

"a horn emits a frequency of 1000 HZ. A 14 m/s wind is blowing toward a listener. What is the frequency of the sound heard by th

Semenov [28]

Answer:

$f_L = 1000 Hz$

Explanation:

given,

speed of wind, = 14 m/s

frequency of horn,f_s = 1000 Hz

speed of sound,V = 344 m/s

frequency heard by the listener

using Doppler effect

$f_L = \dfrac{v+v_L}{v+v_s}f_s$

f_L is the frequency of the sound heard by the listener

f_s is the frequency of sound emitted by the listener

V is the speed of sound

v_L is the speed of listener

v_s is the speed of source

now,

considering the frame of reference in which wind is at rest now, both listener and the source will be moving at 14 m/s

$f_L = \dfrac{v+14}{v+14}\times 1000$

now on solving we will get

$f_L = 1000 Hz$

hence, the frequency heard by the listener is equal to 1000 Hz

Imagine you are in an open field where two loudspeakers are set up and connected to the same amplifier so that they emit sound w

Scilla [17]

Answer:

d= 5.62 m

Explanation:

In order to have destructive interference, the path difference from the sources to the listener must be an odd multiple of half wavelengths, as follows:

d = (2n+1) * λ/2

In orfer to know which is the wavelength, we can use the relationship between propagation speed (in this case speed of sound), frequency and wavelength:

v= λ*f ⇒ λ = v/f = 344 m/s / 688 1/sec = 0.5 m

So, the path difference must be, at least, λ/2:

d = b-a = λ/2, where b is the distance to the speaker B, and a, the distance to the speaker A.

Applying Pithagorean Theorem, as the perpendicular distance d (which is our unknown) is the same for the triangles defined by the horizontal distance to the listener, and the straight line from the new position to the sources, we can write:

d² = a²- (3.0)²

d² = b²- (3.5)²

As the left sides are equal, so do right sides:

a² - (3.0)² = b² - (3.5)²

⇒ b² - a² = (3.5)² - (3.0)² = 3.25

We can replace (b²- a²) as follows:

b² - a² = (b+a)(b-a) = 3.25 (2)

We know that b-a = λ/2 = 0.25

Replacing in (2), we have:

b+a = 3.25 / 0.25 = 13 m

b-a = 0.25 m

Adding both sides:

2*b = 13.25 m ⇒ b= 13.25 /2 = 6.63 m

⇒ d² = (6.63)² - (3.5)² = 31.6 m²

⇒ d=√31.6 m² = 5.62 m
