<h2>Answers:</h2>

<u>The possible effects on the earth will be</u><u> 1) No light during night 2) No tides</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

As we know that tides are caused by the differential gravitational force on the equatorial regions by the moon. So if the Moon escapes from Earth, the main effect would be the lack of tides on Earth The region closer to the Moon experiences more gravitational force than the region on Earth away from the Moon. Other effects will be no more Moon to light up the night sky and no more solar eclipses.

Two open organ pipes, sounding together, produce a beat frequency of 8.0 Hz . The shorter one is 2.08 m long. How long is the ot
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The length of the longer pipe is L = 2.30 m

Explanation:

Given that:

Two open organ pipes, sounding together, produce a beat frequency of 8.0 Hz . The shorter one is 2.08 m long.

How long is the other pipe?

From above;

The formula for the frequency of open ended pipes can be expressed as:

f = \dfrac{nv}{2L}

where n = 1 ( since half wavelength exist between those two pipes)

v = 343 m/s  and L = 2.08 m

Thus, the shorter pipe produces a frequency of :

f = \dfrac{1*343}{2*2.08}

f = \dfrac{343}{4.16}

f =82.45 \ Hz

Also; we know that the beat frequency was given as 8.0 Hz

Then,

The lower frequency of the longer pipe = ( 82.45 - 8.0 )Hz

The lower frequency of the longer pipe = 74.45 Hz

Finally;

From the above equation; make Length L the subject of the formula. Then,

The length of the longer pipe is L = \dfrac{nv}{2f}

The length of the longer pipe is L = \dfrac{1*343}{2*74.45}

The length of the longer pipe is L = \dfrac{343}{148.9}

The length of the longer pipe is L = 2.30 m

What is the force required to produce an acceleration of 46.4
Brilliant_brown [7]
That depends on the mass of the object, and the unit of the '46.4' .

If the '46.4' is ' meters per second² ' , then the force required is

       (mass of the object in kilograms) x (46.4)    newtons .

What is the new current?
nikdorinn [45]
Voltage = current x resistance
since R is doubled, current must reduce by half.
So,
new current = 120/2 = 60mA
