Answer:

0 m/s²

Explanation:

Since each skater pushes the other with a force of 70 N, according to Newton's third law, there is an equal reaction and thus the other pushes back with a force of 70 N in the other direction, so we have forces of +70N and -70 N respectively. So, the net force on each skateboarder is F = + 70 N + (-70 N) = + 70 N - 70 N = 0 N.

Since force, F = ma where a = acceleration and m = mass,

a = F/m.

So, since for each skater, F = 0N,

a = 0 N/m

= 0 m/s²

So, the acceleration of each skater is 0 m/s²

Is everyone in your class able to hear a quiet sound equally well?

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Explanation:

Loudness describes how people perceive sound (see loudness). ... If people could hear equally well at all frequencies, the contour lines would be flat because the same measured sound intensity would be perceived to be equally loud regardless of the sound frequency. In fact, people do not hear as well at low frequencies.

The world’s longest organ pipe, in the boardwalk hall auditorium in atlantic city, is 64 feet long. what is the fundamental freq

zepelin [54]

The fundamental frequency of this open-open pipe is 8.82 Hz

The quantity of waves that pass a set location in a predetermined period of time is known as frequency. Frequency is the number of full cycles per second in the alternating current direction for an oscillating or fluctuating current. The hertz, also known as Hz, is the accepted unit of frequency.

The temporal rate of change observed in oscillatory and periodic phenomena, such as mechanical vibrations, audio signals (sound), radio waves, and light, is specified by the frequency, an essential parameter in science and engineering.

Assume vs = 344 m/s

f1 = vs/2L

= 344 m/s/ 2∙64 ft/(3.281 ft/m)

= 8.82 Hz

REY [17]

Answer:

Atoms found in nature are either stable or unstable. ... An atom is unstable (radioactive) if these forces are unbalanced; if the nucleus has an excess of internal energy. Instability of an atom's nucleus may result from an excess of either neutrons or protons

In a physics lab, Asha is given a 10.7 kg uniform rectangular plate with edge lengths 67.3 cm by 53.5 cm . Her lab instructor re

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

$I=2.6363\ kg.m^2$

Explanation:

Given:

dimension of uniform plate, $(0.673\times 0.535)\ m^2$

mass of plate, $m=10.7\ kg$

Now we find the moment of inertia about the center of mass of the rectangular plate is given as:

$I_{cm}=\frac{1}{12} \times m(L^2+B^2)$

where:

$L=$ length of the plate

$B=$ breadth of the plate

$I_{cm}=\frac{1}{12} \times 10.7\times(0.673^2+0.535^2)$

$I_{cm}=0.6591\ kg.m^2$

We know that the center of mass of the rectangular plane is at its geometric center which is parallel to the desired axis XX' .

Now we find the distance between the center of mass and the corner:

$s=\frac{\sqrt{ (0.673^2+0.535^2)}}{2}$

$s=0.4299\ m$

Now using parallel axis theorem:

$I=I_{cm}+m.s^2$

$I=0.6591+10.7\times 0.4299^2$

$I=2.6363\ kg.m^2$

Which of the following statements about X-rays and radio waves is not true? Which of the following statements about X-rays and r

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

X-rays travel through space faster than radio waves.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillations of the electric and the magnetic field in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave.

All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum always at the same speed, the speed of light, whose value is:

$c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s$

Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different types, according to their wavelength/frequency. From shortest to longest wavelength (and so, from highest to lowest frequency), we have:

Gamma rays

X rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared radiation

Microwaves

Radio waves

Now we can analyze the 4 statements:

X-rays and radio waves are both forms of light, or electromagnetic radiation --> TRUE. They are both types of electromagnetic waves.

X-rays have higher frequency than radio waves. --> TRUE, as we can see from the table above.

X-rays have shorter wavelengths than radio waves. --> TRUE, as we can see from the table above.

X-rays travel through space faster than radio waves. --> FALSE: all electromagnetic waves travel in space at the same speed, the speed of light.
