Answer:

Shadows are formed when an opaque object or material is placed in the path of rays of light. The opaque material does not let the light pass through it. The light rays that go past the edges of the material make an outline for the shadow.

For the different values given for the radius of curvature RRR and speed vvv, rank the magnitude of the force of the roller-coas

nirvana33 [79]

Explanation:

The force of the roller-coaster track on the cart at the bottom is given by :

$F=\dfrac{mv^2}{R}$ , m is mass of roller coaster

Case 1.

R = 60 m v = 16 m/s

$F=\dfrac{(16)^2m}{60}=4.26m\ N$

Case 2.

R = 15 m v = 8 m/s

$F=\dfrac{(8)^2m}{15}=4.26m\ N$

Case 3.

R = 30 m v = 4 m/s

$F=\dfrac{(4)^2m}{30}=0.54m\ N$

Case 4.

R = 45 m v = 4 m/s

$F=\dfrac{(4)^2m}{45}=0.36m\ N$

Case 5.

R = 30 m v = 16 m/s

$F=\dfrac{(16)^2m}{30}=8.54m\ N$

Case 6.

R = 15 m v =12 m/s

$F=\dfrac{(12)^2m}{15}=9.6m\ N$

Ranking from largest to smallest is given by :

F>E>A=B>C>D

A nylon guitar string is fixed between two lab posts 2.00 m apart. The string has a linear mass density of μ=7.20 g/m\mu=7.20~\t

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

4.6 m

Explanation:

First of all, we can find the frequency of the wave in the string with the formula:

$f=\frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$

where we have

L = 2.00 m is the length of the string

T = 160.00 N is the tension

$\mu =7.20 g/m = 0.0072 kg/m$ is the mass linear density

Solving the equation,

$f=\frac{1}{2(2.00 m)}\sqrt{\frac{160.00 N}{0.0072 kg/m}}=37.3 Hz$

The frequency of the wave in the string is transmitted into the tube, which oscillates resonating at same frequency.

The n=1 mode (fundamental frequency) of an open-open tube is given by

$f=\frac{v}{2L}$

where

v = 343 m/s is the speed of sound

Using f = 37.3 Hz and re-arranging the equation, we find L, the length of the tube:

$L=\frac{v}{2f}=\frac{343 m/s}{2(37.3 Hz)}=4.6 m$

Describe a scientific method

laila [671]

The process of <u>scientific method</u> involves making hypotheses , driving predictions from them as logical consequences , and then carrying out experiments or empirical observations based on those predictions. A hypotheses is a conjecture , based on knowledge obtained while seeking answers to the questions.
