Answer:

it is a light receptor that generates nerve signals that are sent to the brain

Explanation:

the lens are like the glasses, this means that is used to see things better. You just put them in your eye and that's all it's not connected to the brain

g Two cars, car 1 and car 2 are traveling in opposite directions, car 1 with a magnitude of velocity v1=13.0 m/s and car 2 v2= 7

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

When they are approaching each other

$f_a = 2228.7 \ Hz$

When they are passing each other

$f_a = 2100Hz$

When they are retreating from each other

$f_a = 1980.7 Hz$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The velocity of car one is $v_1 = 13.0 m/s$

The velocity of car two is $v_2 = 7.22 m/s$

The frequency of sound from car one is $f_e = 2.10 kHz$

Generally the speed of sound at normal temperature is $v = 343 m/s$

Now as the cars move relative to each other doppler effect is created and this can be represented mathematically as

$f_a = f_o [\frac{v \pm v_o}{v \pm v_s} ]$

Where $v_s$ is the velocity of the source of sound

$v_o$ is the velocity of the observer of the sound

$f_o$ is the actual frequence

$f_a$ is the apparent frequency

Considering the case when they are approaching each other

$f_a = f_o [\frac{v + v_o}{v - v_s} ]$

$v_o = v_2$

$v_s = v_1$

$f_o = f_e$

Substituting value

$f_a = 2100 [\frac{343 + 7.22}{ 343 - 13} ]$

$f_a = 2228.7 \ Hz$

Considering the case when they are passing each other

At that instant

$v_o = v_s = 0m/s$

$f_o = f_e$

$f_a = f_o [\frac{v }{v } ]$

$f_a = f_o$

Substituting value

$f_a = 2100Hz$

Considering the case when they are retreating from each other

$f_a = f_o [\frac{v - v_o}{v + v_s} ]$

$v_o = v_2$

$v_s = v_1$

$f_o = f_e$

Substituting value

$f_a = 2100 [\frac{343 - 7.22}{343 + 13} ]$

$f_a = 1980.7 Hz$

Why do the waves have different speeds in different layers of Earth's surface?

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Material's density

Explanation:

Seismic waves travel at different rates of speed based on a material's density. Hopefully, you understand that the Earth has three main layers: the crust, mantle, and core. Earthquake waves move faster through solids.

A 12 kg box is pulled across the floor with a 48 N horizontal force. If the force of friction is 12 N, what is the acceleration

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the box is 3 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the box, m = 12 kg

horizontal force pulling the box forward, Fx = 48 N

frictional force acting against the box in opposite direction, Fk = 12 N

The net horizontal force on the box, F = 48 N - 12 N

The net horizontal force on the box, F = 36 N

Apply Newton's second law of motion to determine the acceleration of the box;

F = ma

where;

F is the net horizontal force on the box

a is the acceleration of the box

a = F / m

a = 36 / 12

a = 3 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the box is 3 m/s²

What causes the earths crust to move ?

tangare [24]

Upwelling currents in the molten material beneath the crust.

The rocks that make up the crust are light, compared with the metal-rich material beneath. The crust floats on top like an iceberg. Slow-moving currents underneath propel the continents around the surface
