Gravitational potential energy is caused when an object is resting above the ground. It is released when the object is falling, not by burning substances.

How does increasing the distance between charged objects affect the electric force between them? the electric force increases be
konstantin123 [22]

the electric force decreases because the distance has an indirect relationship to the force

Explanation:

The electric force between two objects is given by

F=k \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1 and q2 are the charges of the two objects

r is the distance between the two objects

As we can see from the formula, the magnitude of the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance: so, when the distance between the object increases, the magnitude of the force decreases.

A standing wave of the third overtone is induced in a stopped pipe, 2.5 m long. The speed of sound is The frequency of the sound
NemiM [27]

Answer:

f3 = 102 Hz

Explanation:

To find the frequency of the sound produced by the pipe you use the following formula:

f_n=\frac{nv_s}{4L}

n: number of the harmonic = 3

vs: speed of sound = 340 m/s

L: length of the pipe = 2.5 m

You replace the values of n, L and vs in order to calculate the frequency:

f_{3}=\frac{(3)(340m/s)}{4(2.5m)}=102\ Hz

hence, the frequency of the third overtone is 102 Hz

Three balls are in water. Ball 1 floats, with half of it exposed above the water level. Ball 2, with a density less than the den
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The magnitude of buoyancy force is equal to that of ball's weight.

Explanation:

Ball 1 is floating on water. Weight of ball 1 is Fg=m1g  is acting vertically downward

Force of buoyancy FB = ρVdisg is acting vertically upward.

Net force acting on the ball is zero, FB=Fg

Answer

The magnitude of buoyancy force is equal to that of ball's weight.

Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco holds the world record in the 1500 m running race. He ran the final 400 m in a time of 51.9 s.
konstantin123 [22]

Answer: His average speed in mph over the last 400 m is 7.7 m/s.

Explanation:

Given: Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco holds the world record in the 1500 m running race. He ran the final 400 m in a time of 51.9 s.

We know that , speed = \dfrac{distance}{time}

Here , distance = 400m and time = 51.9 s

Then, speed =  \dfrac{400}{51.9}\approx7.7\ m/s

Hence, his average speed in mph over the last 400 m is 7.7 m/s.

A particular string resonates in four loops at a frequency of 320 Hz . Name at least three other (smaller) frequencies at which
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

160 Hz  ,  240 Hz  , 400 Hz

Explanation:

Given that

Frequency of forth harmonic is 320 Hz.

Lets take fundamental frequency = f₁

f_1=\dfrac{320}{4}\ Hz

f₁=80 Hz

Frequency of first harmonic = f₂

f₂=2 f₁

f₂ =2 x 80 = 160 Hz

Frequency of second harmonic = f₃

f₃= 3 f₁=3 x 80 = 240 Hz

Frequency of fifth harmonic = f₅

f₅=  5 f₁= 5 x 80 = 400 Hz

Three frequencies are as follows

160 Hz  ,  240 Hz  , 400 Hz
