It effects it exponentially. Whereas you can get to a point where an object is so high that when dropped it will achieve terminal velocity. Without the factors of drag and just all around friction in the equation, all objects will fall at a rate of about 9.8 meters per second. But they must accelerate to that speed. Doubling the high adds more time for the sled to achieve its maximum speed. Meaning it's potential energy increases.

A bicyclist of mass 68 kg rides in a circle at a speed of 3.9 m/s. If the radius of the circle is 6.5 m, what is the centripetal
ASHA 777 [7]
Data:
Centripetal Force = ? (Newton)
m (mass) = 68 Kg
s (speed) = 3.9 m/s
R (radius) = 6.5 m

Formula:
F_{centripetal\:force} =  \frac{m*s^2}{R}

Solving:
F_{centripetal\:force} = \frac{m*s^2}{R}
F_{centripetal\:force} = \frac{68*3.9^2}{6.5}
F_{centripetal\:force} = \frac{68*15.21}{6.5}
F_{centripetal\:force} = \frac{1034.28}{6.5}
\boxed{\boxed{F_{centripetal\:force} = 159.12\:N}}

What principles of science (like facts, laws, and theories) might help explain why similar investigations conducted in many part
natulia [17]

Answer:

Reproducibility of research

Explanation:

The principle of science that explains why similar experimental investigations conducted in different parts of the world could result in the same outcome is referred to as reproducibility.

<em>A good research or experiment in science must be reproducible, otherwise, the outcome of such an experiment might become inadmissible within the scientific community. It is a core principle of the scientific method that similar results should be obtained when an experiment or observational study conducted in one place is repeated in another place with the same procedure. Hence, an experiment must be reproducible in science in order for the outcome of such an experiment to be part of the general scientific knowledge. </em>

A ship sends out a 1200 Hz sound wave, which has a wavelength of 120 cm in the water. What would happen if that ship sent out a
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

the wave length becomes doubled or becomes two times the initial wavelength = 240 cm

Explanation:

From wave,

v = λf................ Equation 1

Where v = velocity of the wave, λ = wavelength of the wave, f = frequency of the wave.

Given: f = 1200 Hz, λ = 120 cm = 1.2 m

Substitute into equation 1

v = 1200(1.2)

v = 1440 m/s.

When the ship sent out a 600 Hz sound wave,

make λ the subject of formula in equation 1

λ = v/f............. Equation 2

Given: f = 600 Hz, v = 1440 m/s

Substitute into equation 2

λ = 1440/600

λ = 2.4 m or 240 cm.

When the ship sent out a 600 Hz sound wave instead, the wave length becomes doubled or becomes two times the initial wavelength = 240 cm

If a sound with frequency fs is produced by a source traveling along a line with speed vs. If an observer is traveling with spee
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

457.81 Hz

Explanation:

From the question, it is stated that it is a question under Doppler effect.

As a result, we use this form

fo = (c + vo) / (c - vs) × fs

fo = observed frequency by observer =?

c = speed of sound = 332 m/s

vo = velocity of observer relative to source = 45 m/s

vs = velocity of source relative to observer = - 46 m/s ( it is taking a negative sign because the velocity of the source is in opposite direction to the observer).

fs = frequency of sound wave by source = 459 Hz

By substituting the the values to the equation, we have

fo = (332 + 45) / (332 - (-46)) × 459

fo = (377/ 332 + 46) × 459

fo = (377/ 378) × 459

fo = 0.9974 × 459

fo = 457.81 Hz
