The label has been scratched off a tuning fork and you need to know its frequency. From its size, you suspect that it is somewhe

re around 250 Hz. You find a 250-Hz tuning fork and a 270-Hz tuning fork. When you strike the 250-Hz fork and the fork of unknown frequency, you hear a modulation (fluctuation of the amplitude) at a frequency of 5 Hz. When you strike the unknown with the 270-Hz fork, you hear a modulation at a frequency of 15 Hz. What is the unknown frequency

Answer:

255 Hz

Explanation:

With 5 beats per second with the 250 Hz fork, we know the unknown fork is either 250 - 5 = 245Hz or 250 + 5 = 255 Hz

With 15 beats per second with the 270 Hz fork, we know the unknown fork is either 270 - 15 = 255Hz or 270 + 15 = 285 Hz (most people would have a hard time discerning 15 beats per second... 5 per second is hard enough)

As 255 is the common frequency, it is the one selected.

What are subtomic particles<br>​
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

In the physical sciences, subatomic particles are smaller than atoms. They can be composite particles, such as the neutron and proton; or elementary particles, which according to the standard model are not made of other particles. Particle physics and nuclear physics study these particles and how they interact.

A satellite in orbit is not truly traveling through a vacuum.It is moving through very, very thin air. Does the resulting airfri
defon

PART A) Yes, the fact that there is a frictional force acting on the satellite generates a loss of energy due to friction. What causes satellite to diminish its orbit during its tour. In fact, many satellites have rectifier systems that allow them to position themselves and remain in their orbit for a long time to avoid being trapped by the Earth's gravity Force and fall into the atmosphere where they would probably be torn apart.

PART B) As a similarity, one could start by mentioning the structure of the two equations are similar and have their own constants who were responsible for supporting them. While the law of gravity speaks of the masses of the bodies the electrostatic law speaks of the charges of the bodies. For both the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them.

However, the most notable difference between them is basically their statement. While one of the equations speaks about greavedad the other reflects the electromagnetic phenomena. It should be noted that the force of gravity is much weaker than the electromagnetic force and that the latter has the capacity of attraction and repulsion. While the gravitational force only that of attraction.

A race car accelerates from 0 m/s to 30.0 m/s with a displacement of
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

4. 10.0 m/s²

Explanation:

I) if initial velocity is 'v₀', the final velocity is 'v', the accelaration is 'a', the distance is 'L' and elapsed time if 't', then:

1. \ a=\frac{v-v_0}{t};

2. \ L=\frac{at^2}{2}.

II) using these two equations after substitution v₀=0; v=30 and L=45:

\left \{{{45 =\frac{at^2}{2}} \atop {a=\frac{30-0}{t} }} \right.

\left \{ {{at^2=90} \atop {at=30}} \right. \  \ \left \{ {{a=10} \atop {t=3}} \right. => \ a=10\frac{m}{s^2}
