Explanation:

Given that,

Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward: and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s westward.

Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:

v_B=+5\ m/sis the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)

v_c=15\ m/s is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy.

Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is

v_B=+5\ m/s

Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be

v_c'=-15\ m/s-(+5\ m/s)\\\\=-20\ m/s

So, the magnitude is 20 m/s and the direction is westward (negative sign).

1.Predict the frequency of a tuning fork that emits a sound with a wavelength of 0.385 m.
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

1.) Frequency F = 890.9 Hz

2.) Wavelength (λ) = 0.893 m

Explanation:

1.) Given that the wavelength = 0.385m

The speed of sound = 343 m / s

To predict the frequency, let us use the formula V = F λ

Where (λ) = wavelength = 0.385m

343 = F × 0.385

F = 343/0.385

F = 890.9 Hz

2.) Given that the frequency = 384Hz

Using the formula again

V = F λ

λ = V/F

Wavelength (λ) = 343/384

Wavelength (λ) = 0.893 m

The two questions can be solved with the use of formula

When a piece of metal mass of 72.17 g is
nordsb [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The trick is in finding the volume.

Final Volume = 26.64

Initial Volume=<u>20.92</u>                   Subtract

Metal Volume  5.72  cm^3

Density = mass / volume

Density = 72.17 / 5.72

Density = 12.617

The inner planets formed:
Ivan

Answer:

a. by collisions and mergers of planetesimals.

Explanation:

Inner planets are planets within 1.5 AU distance from the sun. These are called terrestrial planets because they are somewhat similar to Earth, mainly made of rocks.

The main ingredient of these planets are solar nebula and interstellar dust condensation of which leads to formation of small rock particles. These particles come close to each other under in the influence of gravity and other forces. As the mass of the particles increase they form planetesimals, these planetesimals eventually merge to form planets.

The two forces in each pair can either both act on the same body or they can act on different bodies. The two forces in each pai
kotykmax [81]

Answer: The given statement is false.

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. So, when we apply force in one direction on an object then the object also applies a force in the opposite direction.

Hence, it is true that two forces in each pair of forces act in opposite directions.

For example, when we push a wooden box of 20 kg in the forward direction then the box will also apply a force in the opposite direction.

But the statement two forces in each pair can either both act on the same body or they can act on different bodies is false.
