Answer:

When focused light is projected onto the retina, it stimulates the rods and cones. The retina then sends nerve signals are sent through the back of the eye to the optic nerve. The optic nerve carries these signals to the brain, which interprets them as visual images.

A sound wave of frequency 440 Hz is played by a musician. What is the

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

343/440

Explanation:

Recall that v=d/t

Now, this is the same thing.

Frequency is 1/T and wavelength is the distance travelled in one period.

So Vs=f*λ

(the greek letter is used as the symbol of wavelength; it's arbitrary)

Why are the layers of the earth in the order that they are in?

REY [17]

Answer:

Each layer has its own properties, composition, and characteristics that affects many of the key processes of our planet. They are, in order from the exterior to the interior – the crust, the mantle, the outer core, and the inner core.

A 150 kg car hits a wall with 45 N of force, what was its acceleration?

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

a = 0.3 m/s²

Explanation:

Given: 45 N, 150 kg

To find: a

Formula: $a = \frac{F}{m}$

Solution: To find a, divide the force by the weight

A = F ÷ m

= 45 ÷ 150

= 0.3 m/s²

Newtons are derived units, equal to 1 kg-m/s². In other words, a single Newton is equal to the force needed to accelerate one kilogram one meter per second squared.

Standing waves are set up on two strings fixed at each end, as shown in the drawing. The two strings have the same tension and m

uysha [10]

The beat frequency produced by the two standing waves is 13 Hz.

<h3>The wavelength of the shorter string</h3>

The wavelength of the shorter string is calculated as follows;

$L = \frac{\lambda}{2} \\\\\lambda = 2L\\\\\lambda = \frac{v}{f} \\\\\lambda = \frac{41.9}{225} \\\\\lambda = 0.186 \ m\\\\\lambda = 18.6 \ cm\\\\L= \frac{\lambda }{2} \\\\L = \frac{18.6 \ cm}{2} = 9.3\ cm$

<h3>The length of the longer string</h3>

$L_2 = 0.58 \ cm \ + 9.3 \ cm\\\\L_2 = 9.88 \ cm \\\\\lambda _2 = 2L_2\\\\\lambda _2 = 2(9.88 \ cm)\\\\\lambda_2 = 19.76 \ cm = 0.1976 \ m$

The frequency of the longer string is calculated as follows;

$v_1 = v_2\\\\f_2 = \frac{v_2}{\lambda_2} \\\\f_2 = \frac{41.9}{0.1976} \\\\f_2 = 212 \ Hz$

<h3>Beat frequency</h3>

The beat frequency produced by the two standing waves is calculated as follows;

$F_b = 225 \ Hz \ - \ 212 \ Hz\\\\F_b = 13 \ Hz$
