The molecules are continually colliding with each other and with the walls of the container. When a molecule collides with the wall, they exert<span> small force on the wall The </span>pressure exerted<span> by the </span>gas<span> is due to the sum of all these collision forces.The more particles that hit the walls, the higher the </span>pressure<span>.</span>

A cello string 0.75 m long has a 220 hz fundamental frequency. find the wave speed along the vibrating string. answer in units o
maxonik [38]
For fundamental frequency of a string to occur, the length of the string has to be half the wavelength. That is,

1/2y = L, where L = length of the string, y = wavelength.

Therefore,
y = 2L = 2*0.75 =1.5 m

Additionally,
y = v/f Where v = wave speed, and f = ferquncy

Then,
v = y*f = 1.5*220 = 330 m/s

An object weighs 60.0 kg on the surface of the earth. How much does it weigh 4R from the surface? (5R from the center)
Alecsey [184]
"60 kg" is not a weight.  It's a mass, and it's always the same
no matter where the object goes.

The weight of the object is   

                                 (mass) x (gravity in the place where the object is) .

On the surface of the Earth,

                   Weight = (60 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)

                                =      588 Newtons.

Now, the force of gravity varies as the inverse of the square of the distance from the center of the Earth.
On the surface, the distance from the center of the Earth is 1R.
So if you move out to  5R  from the center, the gravity out there is

                    (1R/5R)²  =  (1/5)²  =  1/25  =  0.04 of its value on the surface.

The object's weight would also be 0.04 of its weight on the surface.

                 (0.04) x (588 Newtons)  =  23.52 Newtons.

Again, the object's mass is still 60 kg out there.
___________________________________________

If you have a textbook, or handout material, or a lesson DVD,
or a teacher, or an on-line unit, that says the object "weighs"
60 kilograms, then you should be raising a holy stink. 
You are being planted with sloppy, inaccurate, misleading
information, and it's going to be YOUR problem to UN-learn it later.
They owe you better material.

The leg's force forward on the foot= 500N
Anna11 [10]

There's so much going on here, in a short period of time.

<u>Before the kick</u>, as the foot swings toward the ball . . .

-- The net force on the ball is zero.  That's why it just lays there and
does not accelerate in any direction.

-- The net force on the foot is 500N, originating in the leg, causing it to
accelerate toward the ball.


<u>During the kick</u> ... the 0.1 second or so that the foot is in contact with the ball ...

-- The net force on the ball is 500N.  That's what makes it accelerate from
just laying there to taking off on a high arc.

-- The net force on the foot is zero ... 500N from the leg, pointing forward,
and 500N as the reaction force from the ball, pointing backward. 

That's how the leg's speed remains constant ... creating a dent in the ball
until the ball accelerates to match the speed of the foot, and then drawing
out of the dent, as the ball accelerates to exceed the speed of the foot and
draw away from it.
