Answer: hello your question lacks the required diagram attached below is the required diagram

answer : Both cars will move backwards and stop due to friction.

Explanation:

Given that both cars are negatively charged, When the wedges are removed both cars will move backwards ( repelling each other ) because they are like poles, and Like poles repel each other. while unlike poles attract each other ( forward movement ) .

The cars will later come to a stop due to frictional forces between the cars and the surface.

Two speakers separated by a distance of 4.40 m emit sound. The speakers have opposite phase. A person listens from a location 3.

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

f = 147.21 Hz

Explanation:

In order to have a destructive interference, as the source emit in opposite phases, the path difference between the distance to the person, measured in a straight line from the speakers, must be equal to an integer number of wavelengths.

We need to know the distance from the listener to the other speaker, located 4.4 m from the one which is directly in front of him, which we can find using Pythagorean theorem, as follows:

l₂ = √(3)²+(4.4)² = 5.33 m

The difference in path will be, then:

d = l₂-l₁ = 5.33 m - 3.00 m = 2.33 m

For the lowest frequency that gives destructive interference, the wavelength will be highest possible, which happens when the distance is just one wavelength.

⇒ d = λ = 2.33 m

In any wave, there exists a fixed relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength, as follows:

v = λ*f Κ ⇒ f = v/λ

Taking the speed of sound as 343 m/s, and solving for f, we get:

f= 343 m/s / 2.33 m = 147.21 Hz

How does approaching a temperature of absolute zero affect kinetic energy.?

Alexus [3.1K]

First of all the kinetic energy is when the particles move in continuous random motion.

If the temperature is high the colliding particles will collide more. and if the temperature is low the colliding particles will collide less.

Low temperature result in low kinetic energy
High temperature result in high kinetic energy

Absolute zero is the point where where all molecules have no kinetic energy. It is a theoretical value (it has never been reached).

The Kelvin temperature scale is based on absolute zero being the lowest possible temperature that could theoretically be reached. That is why there is no such thing as a negative Kelvin temperature value.

A 100 kg marble slab falls off a skyscraper and falls 200 m to the ground without hitting anyone. Its fall stops within millisec

Radda [10]

Answer:

Δ T = 2.28°C

Explanation:

given,

mass of marble = 100 Kg

height of fall = 200 m

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

C_marble = 860 J/(kg °C)

using conservation of energy

Potential energy = heat energy

$m g h = m C_{marble}\Delta T$

$g h =C_{marble}\Delta T$

$\Delta T= \dfrac{g h}{C_{marble}}$

$\Delta T= \dfrac{9.8 \times 200}{860}$

Δ T = 2.28°C

Reflection off of a smooth surface like a mirror is an example of diffuse reflection.

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Reflection is when light bounces off an object. If the surface is smooth and shiny, like glass, water or polished metal, the light will reflect at the same angle as it hit the surface. ... This is called diffuse reflection. Diffuse reflection is when light hits an object and reflects in lots of different directions.

A 70- kg bicycle rides his 9.8- kg bicycle with a speed of 16 m/ s. What is the magnitude of the braking force of the bicycle co

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

F = -319.2 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a bicyclist, m = 70 kg

Mass of the bicycle = 9.8 kg

The speed of a bicycle, v = 16 m/s

We need to find the magnitude of the braking force of the bicycle come to rest in 4.0 m.

The braking force is given by :

$F=ma\\\\=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\=\dfrac{(70+9.8)(0-16)}{4}\\\\=-319.2\ N$

So, the required force is 319.2 N.
