Novosadov [1.4K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The answer is below!!

Explanation:

Gamma-rays

Gamma-rays have the smallest wavelengths and the most energy of any other wave in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves are generated by radioactive atoms and in nuclear explosions. Gamma-rays can kill living cells, a fact which medicine uses to its advantage, using gamma-rays to kill cancerous cells.

Hope I Helped!!!

What affect does doubling the net force have on the acceleration of the object (when
Triss [41]
<h3>Answer: The acceleration doubles</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

Consider a mass of 10 kg, so m = 10

Let's say we apply a net force of 20 newtons, so F = 20

The acceleration 'a' is...

F = ma

20 = 10a

20/10 = a

2 = a

a = 2

The acceleration is 2 m/s^2. Every second, the velocity increases by 10 m/s.

---------------

Now let's double the net force on the object

F = 20 goes to F = 40

m = 10 stays the same

F = ma

40 = 10a

10a = 40

a = 40/10

a = 4

The acceleration has also doubled since earlier it was a = 2, but now it's a = 4.

---------------

In summary, if you double the net force applied to the object, then the acceleration doubles as well.

A trumpet player is tuning his instrument by playing an A note simultaneously with the first-chair trumpeter, who has perfect pi
KIM [24]

To develop this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Beat

The Beat is an acoustic phenomenon that is generated by two sine waves interfering with slightly different frequencies. The beat frequency is equal to the difference in the frequencies of the two original waves:

f_{bat} = |(f_1 \pm f_B)|

Our values are given as

f_1 = 440Hz

f_B = 2.1Hz

For the particular case we have two possible frequencies:

1) f_{bat} = |(f_1 - f_B)|

f_{bat} = |(440 - 2.1)|

f_{bat} = 437.9Hz

2) f_{bat} = |(f_B + f_1)|

f_{bat} = |(440 +2.1)|

f_{bat} = 442.1Hz

Therefore the two possibles frequencies of the other players note are 437.9Hz and 442.1Hz

A boat takes 3.0 hours to travel 50 km down a river, then 5.4 hours to return. Determine the speed of the water in the river.
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

3.7 km/h

Explanation:

Let's call v the proper speed of the boat and v' the speed of the water in the river.

When the boat travels in the direction of the current, the speed of the boat is:

v + v'

And it covers 50 km in 3 h, so we can write

v+v' = \frac{50 km}{3 h}=16.7 km/h (1)

When the boat travels in the opposite direction, the speed of the boat is

v - v'

And it covers 50 km in 5.4 h, so

v-v'=\frac{50 km}{5.4 h}=9.3 km/h (2)

So we have a system of two equations: by solving them simultaneously, we find the value of v and v':

v+v'=16.7 \\v-v'=9.3

Subtracting the second equation from the first one we get:

(v+v')-(v-v')=16.7-9.3\\2v'=7.4\\v'=3.7

So, the speed of the water is 3.7 km/h.
