How is velocity affected when balanced forces act on an object?
MrRissso [65]
When the forces acting on a body are balanced, their effect
\on the body's motion is the same as if no forces at all are
acting on it, and its velocity can't change.  It continues moving
in a straight line at constant speed (which may be zero).

Suppose that a sound source is emitting waves uniformly in all directions. If you move to a point twice as far away from the sou
Helen [10]

Answer:

<em>d. unchanged.</em>

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is dependent on the speed of the wave and the wavelength of the wave. The frequency is characteristic for a wave, and does not change with distance. This is unlike the amplitude which determines the intensity, which decreases with distance.

In a wave, the velocity of propagation of a wave is the product of its wavelength and its frequency. The speed of sound does not change with distance, except when entering from one medium to another, and we can see from

v = fλ

that the frequency is tied to the wave, and does not change throughout the waveform.

where v is the speed of the sound wave

f is the frequency

λ is the wavelength of the sound wave.

A 100g block is initially compressing a spring 5.0 cm. The spring launches the block 50cm horizontally along the ground with a f
Setler [38]

Answer:

7200 N/m

Explanation:

Metric unit conversion

100g = 0.1 kg

5 cm = 0.05 m

50 cm = 0.5 m

As the block is released from the spring and travelling to height h = 1.5m off the ground, the elastics energy is converted to work of friction force and the potential energy at 1.5 m off the ground

The work by friction force is the product of the force F = 15N itself and the distance s = 0.5 m

W_f = F_fs = 15*0.5 = 7.5 J

Let g = 10 m/s2. The change in potential energy can be calculated as the following:

E_p = mgh = 0.1*10*1.5 = 1.5 J

Therefore, as elastic energy is converted to potential energy and work of friction:

E_e = W_f + E_p

kx^2/2 = 7.5 + 1.5 = 9 J

k = 9*2/x^2 = 18/0.05^2 = 7200 N/m
