Answer:

You will not need any mass to determine the mass of the stick.

Explanation:

The mass of an object, like the stick, can only be determined according to Newton's second law, which states that the mass of an object is equal to the force of that object, divided by the mass of the object. It is obvious that we do not know what is the force and acceleration value of the stick shown in the question above, however, it is impossible to know what is the mass of it, adding external masses to the stick.

You leave on a 450 miles trip in order to attend a meeting that will start 10.8 hours after you begin your trip. Along the way y

Lorico [155]

Answer:2.6 h

Explanation:

Given

Total Trip distance=450 miles

Meeting starts after 10.8 hours

safe Fastest speed is 55 mi/h

so if he drives all the to the meeting with max speed then it takes $=\frac{450}{55}=8.181 h$

and total allowable time is 10.8

Therefore longest time he can spend over dinner is $10.8-8.181 \approx 2.6 hours$

Why do sound engineers use spongy materials in the walls? (1 point)

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

o to increase the frequency of sound waves. It increases the sound waves to a level of frequency that humans cannot hear so you won't be able to hear many things though the wall other then low noises like pounding.

Explanation:

I am in construction class as well as a student teacher for other construction type programs trust me :D

The current in some DC circuits decays according to the function I=I0e−t/τ, where I is the current at some point in time, I0 is

almond37 [142]

Answer: 1.95

Explanation:

You should start off from the decay formula and solve for τ:

$I = I_{0}e^{\frac{t}{\tau\\ } }$

$\frac{I}{I_{0}} = e^{\frac{-t}{\tau} }$

Apply inverse logarithmic function:

$ln(\frac{0.2 A}{1.2 A} ) = \frac{-t}{\tau}$

The final form will be:

$\tau=\frac{-3.5s}{ln(\frac{0.2A}{1.2A} )}$

Inputing values for I, IO, and t:

$\tau=\frac{-3.5S}{ln(\frac{0.2 A}{1.2 A} )} = 1.95$

If the opening to the harbor acts just like a single-slit which diffracts the ocean waves entering it, what is the largest angle

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The angle that the wave would be $\theta = sin ^{-1}\frac{2 \lambda}{D}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that the opening to the harbor acts just like a single-slit so a boat in the harbor that at angle equal to the second diffraction minimum would be safe and the on at angle greater than the diffraction first minimum would be slightly affected

The minimum is as a result of destructive interference

And for single-slit this is mathematically represented as

$D sin \ \theta =m \lambda$
