Answer: C Plane

Explanation: According to Newton's law, gravitational force is proportional to the product of masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.

Gravitational force depends on mass. The bigger the mass, the more the magnitude of the gravitational force. Since plane is assume to have the highest mass in the options, we can therefore conclude that plane will experience the highest gravitational force.

A train traveling at 25 m/s is blowing its whistle at 440 Hz as it crosses a level crossing. You are waiting at the crossing and

ohaa [14]

Answer:

b) 472HZ, 408HZ

Explanation:

To find the frequencies perceived when the bus approaches and the train departs, you use the Doppler's effect formula for both cases:

$f_o=f\frac{v_s+v_o}{v_s-v}\\\\f_o=f'\frac{v_s-v_o}{v_s+v}\\\\$

fo: frequency of the source = 440Hz

vs: speed of sound = 343m/s

vo: speed of the observer = 0m/s (at rest)

v: sped of the train

f: frequency perceived when the train leaves us.

f': frequency when the train is getTing closer.

Thus, by doing f and f' the subjects of the formulas and replacing the values of v, vo, vs and fo you obtain:

$f=f_o\frac{v_s-v}{v_s+v_o}=(440Hz)\frac{340m/s-25m/s}{340m/s}=408Hz\\\\f'=f_o\frac{v_s+v}{v_s-v_o}=(440Hz)\frac{340m/s+25m/s}{340m/s}=472Hz$

hence, the frequencies for before and after tha train has past are

b) 472HZ, 408HZ

Assume an axon has an internal diameter of 1μm and a myelin sheath 1μm thick. The internal specific resistance is 100 Ω cm. For

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

$1.27\times 10^{12}\Omega/m$

Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter=d= $\mu m$

Thickness= $1\mu m$

Radius= $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\mu m=0.5\times 10^{-6} m$

Using $1\mu m=10^{-6} m$

Dielectric constant=8

Resistance = $R=2\times 10^5\Omega cm^2$

Internal specific resistance=r=100 ohm cm= $100\times \frac{1}{100}\Omega-m=1\Omega m$

Using 1 m=100 cm

Internal resistance per unit length= $\frac{r}{A}=\frac{1}{\pi r^2}=\frac{1}{3.14\times (0.5\times 10^{-6})^2}=1.27\times 10^{12}\Omega/m$

Using $\pi=3.14$

Internal resistance per unit length= $1.27\times 10^{12}\Omega/m$

Whats the difference between speed and velocity of an object

ss7ja [257]

The difference between speed and velocity is that the speed is a scalar quantity which means that you can say that this object has a speed of x m/s but you don't have to define its direction
while the velocity is a vector quantity which means that you have to express the velocity by which it moves in x,y and z directions and its norm is the speed
