Radio waves are electromagnetic waves so therefore they can travel long distances in a vacuum. Sound waves are mechanical waves so they can’t not travel in the absence of a medium.

Determine the magnitude of the resultant force FR=F1+F2FR=F1+F2. Assume that F1F1F_1 = 235 lblb and F2F2F_2 = 350 lb

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

585lb

Explanation:

Given the formula for calculating the magnitude of the resultant force as;

$F_R = F_1 + F_2$

Given

$F_1 = 235 lb \ and \ F_2 = 350 lb\\F_R = 235lb + 350lb\\F_R = 585lb\\$

Hence the magnitude of the resultant force is 585lb

A ball is dropped from rest from the top of a cliff that is 24 m high. From ground level, a second ball is thrown straight upwar

sesenic [268]

Answer:

6.0 m below the top of the cliff

Explanation:

We can find the velocity at which the ball dropped from the cliff reaches the ground by using the SUVAT equation

$v^2-u^2 = 2gd$

where

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

g = 9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity, we assume downward as positive direction)

h = 24 m is the distance covered

Solving for h,

$v=\sqrt{2gh}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(24)}=21.7 m/s$

So the ball thrown upward is launched with this initial velocity:

u = 21.7 m/s

From now on, we take instead upward as positive direction.

The vertical position of the ball dropped from the cliff at time t is

$y_1 = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

While the vertical position of the ball thrown upward is

$y_2 = ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

The two balls meet when

$y_1 = y_2\\h-\frac{1}{2}gt^2 = ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2 \\h = ut \rightarrow t = \frac{h}{u}=\frac{24}{21.7}=1.11 s$

So the two balls meet after 1.11 s, when the position of the ball dropped from the cliff is

$y_1 = h -\frac{1}{2}gt^2 = 24-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(1.11)^2=18.0 m$

So the distance below the top of the cliff is

$d=24.0 - 18.0 = 6.0 m$

The combined gas law does not account for changes in _____.

Elan Coil [88]

The combined gas law does not account for changes in power. The combined gas law has no official founder; it is simply the incorporation of the three laws that was discovered. The combined gas law is a gas law that combines Gay-Lussac’s Law, Boyle’s Law and Charle’s Law. Boyle’s law states that pressure is inversely proportional with volume at constant temperature. Charle’s law states that volume is directly proportional with temperature at constant pressure. And Gay-Lussac’s law shows that pressure is directly proportional with temperature at constant volume. The combination of these laws known now as combined gas law gives the ratio between the product of pressure-volume and the temperature of the system is constant. Which gives PV/T=k(constant). When comparing a substance under different conditions, the combined gas law becomes P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2.
