Answer:

Electric current is electric charge in motion. It can take the form of a sudden discharge of static electricity, such as a lightning bolt or a spark between your finger and a ground light switch plate. ... Most electric charge is carried by the electrons and protons within an atom.

solniwko [45]

The frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.

Explanation:

As the ear canal is like a tube with open at one end, the wavelength of sound passing through this tube will propagate 4 times its length of the tube. So wavelength of the sound wave will be equal to four times the length of the tube. Then the frequency can be easily determined by finding the ratio of velocity of sound to wavelength. As the velocity of sound is given as 339 m/s, then the wavelength of the sound wave propagating through the ear canal is

Wavelength=4*Length of the ear canal

As length of the ear canal is given as 2.9 cm, it should be converted into meter as follows:

$wavelength = 4*2.9*10^{-2} =0.116$

Then the frequency is determined as

f=c/λ=339/0.116=2922 Hz=2.92 kHz.

So, the frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.

In case A below, a 1 kg solid sphere is released from rest at point S. It rolls without slipping down the ramp shown, and is lau

mestny [16]

Answer:

the block reaches higher than the sphere

\frac{y_{sphere}} {y_block} = 5/7

Explanation:

We are going to solve this interesting problem

A) in this case a sphere rolls on the ramp, let's find the speed of the center of mass at the exit of the ramp

Let's use the concept of conservation of energy

starting point. At the top of the ramp

Em₀ = U = m g y₁

final point. At the exit of the ramp

Em_f = K + U = ½ m v² + ½ I w² + m g y₂

notice that we include the translational and rotational energy, we assume that the height of the exit ramp is y₂

energy is conserved

Em₀ = Em_f

m g y₁ = ½ m v² + ½ I w² + m g y₂

angular and linear velocity are related

v = w r

the moment of inertia of a sphere is

I = $\frac{2}{5}$ m r²

we substitute

m g (y₁ - y₂) = ½ m v² + ½ ( $\frac{2}{5}$ m r²) ( $\frac{v}{r}$ )²

m g h = ½ m v² (1 + $\frac{2}{5}$ )

where h is the difference in height between the two sides of the ramp

h = y₂ -y₁

mg h = $\frac{7}{5}$ ( $\frac{1}{2}$ m v²)

v = √5/7 √2gh

This is the exit velocity of the vertical movement of the sphere

v_sphere = 0.845 √2gh

B) is the same case, but for a box without friction

starting point

Em₀ = U = mg y₁

final point

Em_f = K + U = ½ m v² + m g y₂

Em₀ = Em_f

mg y₁ = ½ m v² + m g y₂

m g (y₁ -y₂) = ½ m v²

v = √2gh

this is the speed of the box

v_box = √2gh

to know which body reaches higher in the air we can use the kinematic relations

v² = v₀² - 2 g y

at the highest point v = 0

y = vo₀²/ 2g

for the sphere

y_sphere = 5/7 2gh / 2g

y_esfera = 5/7 h

for the block

y_block = 2gh / 2g

y_block = h

therefore the block reaches higher than the sphere

$\frac{y_{sphere}} {y_bolck} = 5/7$

The person should start to slow down but if close enough or in the intersection go threw. Otherwise come to a complete stop until the light turns green again
