Answer:

When you blow into a tuba the air vibrates very slowly.

Explanation:

Tuba is a buzz instrument ie sound is produced in it with the help of lip vibration . It is the lowest pitched musical instrument in the brass family .

Due to absence of resonance in it , it produces music of lowest pitch , So when one blows into it the air column of the instrument vibrates very slowly producing low pitched sound.

Momentum is a measure of the<br> of an object.<br> Which term accurately completes the sentence?

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Momentum is define as the product of the mass and velocity of a body. It is measured in Kgm/s.

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of an object. When an object or a body of mass 'm' is moving with velocity 'v', then its momentum can be determined as;

momentum (P) = mass × velocity

i.e P = m × v

= mv

It is measured in Kgm/s.

The change in momentum of a body is referred to as its impulse (Ft).

ΔP = m(v - u) = Ft

Where: P is the momentum of the object, m is its mass, v is its final velocity, u is the initial velocity, F is the force and t is the time in which the force acts.

Starting at t = 0 s , a horizontal net force F⃗ =( 0.285 N/s )ti^+(-0.460 N/s2 )t2j^ is applied to a box that has an initial mom

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

We know that Impulse = force x time

impulse = change in momentum

change in momentum = force x time

Force F = .285 t -.46t²

Since force is variable

change in momentum = ∫ F dt where F is force

= ∫ .285ti - .46t²j dt

= .285 t² / 2i - .46 t³ / 3 j

When t = 1.9

change in momentum = .285 x 1.9² /2 i - .46 x 1.9³ / 3 j

= .514i - 1.05 j

final momentum

= - 3.1 i + 3.9j +.514i - 1.05j

= - 2.586 i + 2.85j

x component = - 2.586

y component = 2.85

You have two square metal plates with side lengths of (6.50 C) cm. You want to make a parallel-plate capacitor that will hold a

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The necessary separation between the two parallel plates is 0.104 mm

Explanation:

Given;

length of each side of the square plate, L = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m

charge on each plate, Q = 12.5 nC

potential difference across the plates, V = 34.8 V

Potential difference across parallel plates is given as;

$V = \frac{Qd}{L^2 \epsilon_o} \\\\d = \frac{V L^2 \epsilon_o}{Q}$

Where;

d is the separation or distance between the two parallel plates;

$d = \frac{VL^2 \epsilon_o}{Q} \\\\d = \frac{34.8*(0.065)^2 *8.854*10^{-12}}{12.5*10^{-9}} \\\\d = 0.000104 \ m\\\\d = 0.104 \ mm$

Therefore, the necessary separation between the two parallel plates is 0.104 mm

An electron is a negatively charged particle that has a charge of magnitude, e - 1.60 x 10-19 C. Which one of the following stat

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

The electric field is directed toward the electron and has a magnitude of $E=\frac{ke}{r^{2} }$ .

Explanation:

An electric field is define as the surrounding of charges which exert a force on each other and this force can be attractive or repulsive depends on the charge.

In the given case electron is given and the magnitude of charge on electron is $e=1.6\times 10^{-19}C$

Electric field can be represented as,

$E=\frac{kQ}{r^{2} }$

Here, r is the distance between the point ande charge, k is the electric field constant and Q is the charge.

In the given question an electron is given so electric field will be,

$E=\frac{ke}{r^{2} }$

As we know that electric field start from the positive charge and vanish in the negative charge.

So, here the electric field will be $E=\frac{ke}{r^{2} }$ and it is directed toward the electron because of negative charge on the electron.
