If a car is moving to the left with constantvelocity, one can conclude thatthere mustbe no forces applied to the car.the netforc

Allisa [31]

Answer:

the net force applied to the car is zero.

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law, the acceleration of an object (a) is directly proportional to the net force applied (F):

$a=\frac{F}{m}$

where m is the object's mass.

In this problem, the car is moving with constant velocity: this means that the acceleration is zero, a = 0. Therefore, according to the previous equation, the net force must also be zero: F = 0. So, the correct answer is

the net force applied to the car is zero.

If the second harmonic of a certain string is 42 Hz, what is the fundamental frequency of the string?

sdas [7]

Data:
$f_{2} = 42 Hz$
n (Wave node)
V (Wave belly)
L (Wave length)
<span>The number of bells is equal to the number of the harmonic emitted by the string.
</span>
$f_{n} = \frac{nV}{2L}$

Wire 2 → 2º Harmonic → n = 2

$f_{n} = \frac{nV}{2L}$
$f_{2} = \frac{2V}{2L} 
$
$2V = f_{2} *2L$
$V = \frac{ f_{2}*2L }{2}$
$V = \frac{42*2L}{2}$
$V = \frac{84L}{2}$
$V = 42L$

Wire 1 → 1º Harmonic or Fundamental rope → n = 1

$f_{n} = \frac{nV}{2L}$
$f_{1} = \frac{1V}{2L}$
$f_{1} = \frac{V}{2L}$

If, We have:
V = 42L
Soon:
$f_{1} = \frac{V}{2L}$
$f_{1} = \frac{42L}{2L}$
$\boxed{f_{1} = 21 Hz}$

Answer:

<span>The fundamental frequency of the string:
</span>21 Hz

Which statement best describes metallic bonding

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

It's a type of chemical bonding that rises from the electrostatic attractive force between conduction electrons and positively charged metal bars. It can also be described as the sharing of free electrons among a structure of positively charged ions

A. If a T-Rex runs 20 meters in 4 seconds, what is it’s average speed?

mariarad [96]

5m/s

100m

Explanation:

Average speed is sum of distance distance traveled in a given time by a body.

Average speed= $\frac{total distance covered}{time taken}$
