If the frequencies of two component waves are 24 Hz and 20 Hz, they should produce _______ beats per second. A. 2
B. 8
C. 4
D. 12

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: This can be answered using the beat frequency formula, which is simply the difference between 2 frequencies.

Let: fᵇ = beat frequency
f₁ = first frequency
f₂ = second frequency

fᵇ = |f₁ - f₂|

substituting the values:
fᵇ = |24Hz - 20Hz|
fᵇ = 4Hz

The unit Hz also means beats per second, therefore:
fᵇ = 4 beats per second

Therefore, the answer is C. 4
Answer 2
Answer:

C. 4 beats per second is correct

Hi There! :)

How are galaxies created

Instead of large gas clouds collapsing to form a galaxy in which the gas breaks up into smaller clouds, it is proposed that matter started out in these “smaller” clumps (mass on the order of globular clusters), and then many of these clumps merged to form galaxies, which then were drawn by gravitation to form galaxy ...

Hi!Galaxies are thought to begin as small clouds of stars and dust swirling through space. As other clouds get close, gravity sends these objects careening into one another and knits them into larger spinning packs.

Why does a hot air balloon float?The shape of the balloon prides lift.
The volume of the air displaced by the balloon is less than the volume of the balloon
The weight of the air displaced is less than the volume of the balloon
The weight of the balloon is less than the weight of the air displaced by the balloon

Answers

The most accurate answer among the choices would be the fourth one, because if the weight of the air displaced is greater than the balloon's weight, the balloon will float upwards. Density of the air also plays a part. Hot air = less dense. Hope my answer has come to your help.

Right answer: The weight of the air displaced is less than the volume of the balloon


A hot air balloon is a cloth wrap that contains several thousand cubic meters of air inside (a large volume of air). The burner (which is the motor of the balloon and responsible for its elevation) heats the liquid propane to a gaseous state to generate a huge flame, thus heating the air mass inside the balloon. In this way, its density is modified with respect to the air that surrounds it, because the hot air is lighter than the outside air (less dense), causing the balloon to rise and float.



Now, if we know that the density of a body d is directly proportional to its massm and inversely proportional to its volumeV:



d=(m)/(V)



We can deduce that

by increasing the volume of the body, its density will decrease.


This is proof of Archimedes' Principle:  

A body totally or partially immersed in a fluid at rest, experiences a vertical upward thrust equal to the mass weight of the body volume that is displaced.



In this case the fluid is the air outside. So, the warm air inside the balloon, being less dense, will weigh less than the outside air and therefore will receive an upward pushing force or thrust that will make the balloon ascend.



For a winter fair, some students decide to build 30.0 kg wooden pull carts on sled skids. If two 90.0 kg passengers get in, how much force will the puller have to exert to move a pull cart? The coefficient of maximum static friction between the sled skids and the road is 0.15

Answers

Explanation:

Total mass = 90 + 90 + 30 kg = 210 kg

Normal force = 210 kg ( 9.81 m/s^2) = 2060.1 N

Force of friction to overcome = normal force x coeff of static friction

           F = 2060.1 x .15 = ~ 309 N  to get the cart moving...

Calculate the maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from this plate when light of wavelength (λ) 520nm is directed at the metal surface.Work function (Ф) of the plate = 1.1 × 10⁻¹⁹ J
Planck's constant (h) = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Js
Frequency (f) = c ÷ λ
c = speed light in vacuum = 3.00 × 10⁸ms⁻¹
Ekmax = hf - Φ

Wavelength must be in metres, so it'll be 590×10⁻⁹

I've worked this out and gotten two different answers so I thought I'd check to see which one is right.

Answers

Well for a start, 520nm is 520 nanometres and for some reason you've called it 590 x10^-9 (590 isn't standard form) where it's actually 5.2 ×10^-7 metres.
Put that into the equations:

f = c/λ = 3.0 x10^8/5.2 ×10^-7 = 5.77 x10^14 (3 s.f.)
(5.77 x10^14) x (6.63 x10^-34) - (1.1 x10^-19) =
2.73 x10^-19 J

A race car starting from rest accelerates uniformly at 4.9 m/s^2. What is the car's speed after it has traveled 200 meters?

Answers

The equation v²=u²+2as will help with solving this equation
v is what we are trying to find
u=0
a=4.9
s=200
v²=0²+2*4.9*200
v=√(2*4.9*200)
v=√1960
v=44.3 m/s (3 sf)

Hello!

A race car starting from rest accelerates uniformly at a rate of 3.90 m/s² what is the cars speed after it has traveled 200 m.

We have the following data:

Vf (final velocity) = ? (in m/s)

Vi (initial velocity) = 0 m/s (accelerated from rest)

d (displacement) = 200 m

a (acceleration) = 4.90 m/s²

Since we do not need to know the time elapsed during the movement, we apply the data of the question to the Equation of Torricelli, let us see:

V_f^2 = V_i^2 + 2*a*d

V_f^2 = 0^2 + 2*4.90*200

V_f^2 = 0 + 1960

V_f^2 = 1960

V_f = √(1960)

V_f = 44.27188724...

\boxed{\boxed{V_f \approx 44.27\:m/s}}\:\:\:\:\:\:\bf\blue{\checkmark}\bf\green{\checkmark}\bf\red{\checkmark}
