Another model rocket is accelerating at a rate of 3 m/s2 with a force of 1 N. What is the mass of the rocket?
Answer:
60M
Explanation:
Higher amplitudes sound will have a _____________________ sound while lower amplitude will have a __________________________ sound. 10. The speed of sound is dependent on density and temperature of the medium being used so that higher density or temperature will yield a (higher / lower) speed (Kinetic Molecular Theory). 11. Give an example of any resonance heard: 12. Give an example of any echo heard. 13. Give an example of any evidence that sound is energy traveling in waves.
Answer:
9) HIGHER AND LOWER INTESITY, 10) speed of sound must decrease.
11) guitar the strings, flute, 12) In the mountains, 13) sound of a low frequency horn (sub-wofeer)
Explanation:
In this exercise we are asked to complete the sentences.
9) the intensity of the sound is the square of the amplitude, the missing words are
HIGHER INTESITY
LOWER INTENSITY
10) the speed of sound is
v = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho} }[/tex]
and it is also related to temperature
v = [tex]v_o \sqrt{1+ \frac{T}{273} }[/tex]
We must be careful since the compressibility modulus (B) changes significantly between the solid, liquid and gaseous states, if we are in the same medium, the speed of sound decreases with increasing density. For a higher density the speed of sound decreases
Also the speed of sound increases with temperature, but its effect is less,
Therefore, by having these two effects in the opposite direction, the change in density is more important, so the speed of sound must decrease.
.
11) when you listen to a guitar the strings resonate with the instrument body
on the flute has a resonance between the blown air and the flute tube
12) When you are in front of a tall object, the sound is reflected and the echo is heard.
In the mountains, in the squares where there is a large object that reflects in sound
13) when we hear the sound of a low frequency horn (sub-wofeer) we feel the vibration of the air, this is an effect of the pressure energy of the sound on our chest

1) A negative charge of 6C exerts an attractive force of 65N on a second
charge that is 0.005 m away. What is the strength of the second charge?
Answer: [tex]30.09\times 10^{-15}\ C[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
The first charge is [tex]q_1=-6\ C[/tex]
Attraction force [tex]F=65\ N[/tex]
the second charge is at [tex]0.005\ m[/tex] away
Suppose the second charge is [tex]q_2[/tex]
The electrostatic force is given by

Insert the values
[tex]65=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 6\times q_2}{[5\times 10^{-3}]^2}\\\\\Rightarrow q_2=\dfrac{65\times 25\times 10^{-6}}{54\times 10^9}\\\\\Rightarrow q_2=\dfrac{1625\times 10^{-6-9}}{54}\\\\\Rightarrow q_2=30.09\times 10^{-15}\ C[/tex]
During an extremely foggy day during the medieval era, an architect wants to determine the height of a building. He cannot see to the top of his building, but he stands on the roof and lowers a pendulum to the ground. If the pendulum swings with a period of 12 seconds, what is the height of the building?
Answer:
Height of the building = 35.78 m
Explanation:
Given that,
The time period of a pendulum is, T = 12 s
We need to find the height of the building. The formula for the time period of a pendulum is given by :
[tex]T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}}[/tex]
Where
l is the height of the building
[tex]l=\dfrac{T^2g}{4\pi^2}\\\\l=\dfrac{(12)^2\times 9.8}{4\times 3.14^2}\\\\l=35.78\ m[/tex]
So, the height of the building is 35.78 m.

A. 0.61 N
B. 6.1 N
C. 61 N
D. 610 N
Reset Selection
Answer: Alternative D.
------------------------------------------------
To calculate the gravitational weight of other planets, the formula is used:
[tex]\large\boxed{{\mathbf{P = m \cdot g}}}[/tex]
Data:
Mass(m): 1000 N
Gravity(g): 0.61
Weight(p): ?
We replace data:
P = m × g
P = 1000 N × 0.61
P = 610 N
Result: Its weight on Pluto will be 610 Newtons (Alternative D).

light is shone on a diffraction grating with d=2.25 x 10^-6 m. the first order (m = 1) maximum occurs at a 15.7 angle. what is the wavelength of the light in nanometers? (hint: the answer will be between 400 and 700)
[?] nm
Answer:
608.9 nm
Explanation:
trust me cutie
The wavelength of light in nanometers is 0.017 x [tex]10^{3}[/tex] nm.
We have -
d = [tex]2.25\times 10^{-6}[/tex]
n = 1 = order
θ = 15.7 degrees
We have to calculate the wavelength of light (λ) in nanometers.
What is diffraction?Diffraction is defined as the bending or spreading of light waves as it passes through the edge of an object or through a small slit (size of slit should be very very less then wavelength of light) is called diffraction.
According to the question, we can use the following relation to calculate wavelength as -
d sinθ = nλ
λ = [tex]\frac{dsin\theta}{n}[/tex]
λ = d sinθ (since n = 1)
λ = [tex]2.25\times 10^{-6}[/tex] x sin (15.7)
λ = 0.0079 x 2.25 x [tex]10^{-6}[/tex]
λ = 0.0177 x [tex]10^{-6}[/tex] m
We know that -
1 nanometer = [tex]10^{-9}[/tex] m
1 m = [tex]\frac{1}{10^{-9} }[/tex]
0.017 x [tex]10^{-6}[/tex] m will be equal to = [tex]\frac{0.017\times 10^{-6} }{10^{-9} }[/tex] = 0.0177 x [tex]10^{3}[/tex] nm
Hence, the wavelength of light in nano meters is 0.0177 x [tex]10^{3}[/tex] nm.

A stone is dropped from the top a 45m hign building how fast will it moving when it reaches the ground? Ande what will its velocity be?
Answer:
29.7 m/s fast, velocity is 29.7 m/s
Explanation:
Applying,
v² = u²+2gs...................... Equation 1
Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity, s = distance.
Given: u = 0 m/s (dropped from height), s = 45 m
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute these values into equation 1
v² = 0²+2×9.8×45
v² = 882
v = √(882)
v = 29.7 m/s.
Hence the stone will be moving 29.7 m/s fast and the velocity is also 29.7 m/s
Qué esperas que pase cuando las partículas alfa de poca energía se acerquen a un núcleo con muchos protones?
Answer:
Sufrirá una deflección en su recorrido.
Explanation:
Las partículas alfa son nucleos de He (dos protones mas dos neutrones), por lo tanto tienen una carga neta positiva.
Ahora, al acercarse al nucleo de un átomo con muchos protones y con baja energía, la partícula alfa sufrirá una deflección en su recorrido debido a las fuerzas de repulsión electrostática que siente la partícula, ya que el nucelo posee caraga positiva.

Which of the following has 5 significant digits?
O 0.00030
O 50,000
O 100.0300
O 500.00
Answer:
50,000
Explanation:
when we say significant digits we mean the numbers that matter when stating the value of the number.
0.00030 can be written as 0.0003 without affecting it's value, the last zero is not significant.
50,000 all of the numbers here are significant to its value if we take away a zero it becomes 5,000 which is not equal to 50,000. so every digit here is significant
100.0300 can be written as 100.03 without loosing any value
500.00 can be written as 500 without loosing any value. ( think of this as $500.00, this also equals $500)
7. The Voyager 1 space probe was launched in the 1970's and is now the furthest
man-made object from earth - it has actually left the solar system. At its current speed it
could travel across the US, a distance of about 4500 km in 265 seconds (a little less
than 5 minutes!) What is its average speed in kilometers per second?
PLEASE HELP I NEED THE FORMULA AND ANSWER THANK YOU!!
Answer:
v = 16.98 km/s
Explanation:
Given that,
Distance, d = 4500 km
Time, t = 265 s
We need to find its average speed. The total distance covered divided by total time taken is called average speed of an object. So,
[tex]v=\dfrac{4500\ km}{265\ s}\\\\=16.98\ km/s[/tex]
So, the average speed is 16.98 km/s.

If Europium (Eu) undergoes proton decay and loses 3 protons, which element will it become?
Answer:
Neodymium (Nd)
Explanation:
An element is made up of atom, which contains three subatomic particles namely; proton, electron, and neutron. In a neutral atom, the number of protons determines the atomic number of that element and the atomic number of an element is the identity of that element in the periodic table.
Hence, a change in the proton number of an element means a change in the atomic number and ultimately a change of that element. In this question, Europium (Eu) element with atomic number, 63, loses three protons. This means that that atom now has 60 protons, which denotes the atomic number of another element called Neodymium (Nd).
Therefore, Europium (Eu) element has become Neodymium (Nd) due to loss of protons.
