In an experiment, a ringing bell is placed in a vacuum jar that does not have any air in it. What best describes why the bell is

seen vibrating but not heard? Light waves have high frequencies and are able to pass through the vacuum jar, but the frequencies of sound waves are too low to vibrate a vacuum. Light waves travel faster than sound waves, so they are able to travel through the vacuum jar, but sound waves do not have enough energy to vibrate glass. Light does not need a medium to travel through, but since sound waves must have a medium to vibrate, sound is not created where no air is present. Light is a longitudinal wave that is able to pass through the vacuum jar, but sound is a transverse wave that has to move perpendicular to air.

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the third option. The bell is seen vibrating but not heard because l<span>ight does not need a medium to travel through, but since sound waves must have a medium to vibrate, sound is not created where no air is present. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

A 10-kilogram box is at static equilibrium, and the downward pull of gravity acting on the box is 98 newtons. What is the minimu
Nikolay [14]
The box is at equilibrium, so the net force on the box is zero (the force of gravity on the box is equal to the force exerted up on the box by the surface on which it rests.)
To pick up the box, our upward force must be greater than the force of gravity on the box (the weight). So, we must lift up the box with a force greater than 98 newtons. :)

Suppose you want to make a scale model of a hydrogen atom. You choose, for the nucleus, a small ball bearing with a radius of 1.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

A)  x _electron = 0.66 10² m , B)   x _Eart = 1.13 10² m , C)  d_sphere = 1.37 10⁻² mm

Explanation:

A) Let's use a ball for the nucleus, the electron is at a farther distance the sphere for the electron must be at a distance of

Let's use proportions rule

                x_ electron = 0.529 10⁻¹⁰ /1.2 10⁻¹⁵ 1.5

               x _electron = 0.66 10⁵ mm = 0.66 10² m

B) the radii of the Earth and the sun are

               R_{E} = 6.37 10⁶ m

                tex]R_{Sum}[/tex] = 6.96 10⁸ m

                Distance = 1.5 10¹¹ m

                x_Earth = 1.5 10¹¹ / 6.96 10⁸  1.5

                x _Eart = 1.13 10² m

C) The radius of a sphere that represents the earth, if the sphere that represents the sun is 1.5 mm, let's use another rule of proportions

            d_sphere = 1.5 / 6.96 10⁸  6.37 10⁶

            d_sphere = 1.37 10⁻² mm

Write a hypothesis about the effect of the fan speed on the acceleration of the cart. Use the "if . . . then . . . because . . .
iragen [17]
As an object accelerates i.e., change it's velocity(either direction or speed), the position of the object depends on two factor; If the acceleration was direction based then it might have a zero displacement for eg: if it travels in circle. or it might have a net displacement if it travels in a straight line, quantitatively
s = ut +  \frac{1}{2} at {}^{2}
where,
s = displacement
u = initial velocity
v = final velocity
a = acceleration
t = time

Now, for the hypothesis;
There is no direct relationship between fan speed and acceleration but anyways generally speaking if we do have a relationship that with more fan speed we have a larger displacement of air i.e., a more force i.e., greater acceleration
Thus, it can be said, well not exactly scientific, that with a greater fan speed there will be greater acceleration. if fan speed is increased then acceleration will be more.

Imagine you derive the following expression by analyzing the physics of a particular system: M= (mv2r)(mGr2). Simplify the expre
alex41 [277]

Answer:

The simplified expression is M  =  \frac{v^2 r}{G}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     M  = \frac{ \frac{m v^2}{r} }{\frac{ mG}{r^2 } }

So simplifying we have

    M  =    \frac{m v^2}{r} *  \frac{r^2 }{ mG }

    M  =  \frac{v^2 r}{G}

Thus the simplified formula is M  =  \frac{v^2 r}{G}
