Two tuning forks are labeled Q and R and have different frequencies. Tuning fork Q has a frequency of 270 Hz and tuning fork R has a frequency of 540 Hz. Both tuning forks are struck at the same time on opposite sides of a physics lab to make sound waves. Which of the sounds, if either, will move faster through the air?

Answer ( slope);

Make them both to where they have the denominator of 18that makes 3/2 equal 27/18 and 1/9 equal 2/18so now you have  27/18x+5=2/18subtract 5 from the other sideso now you have 27/18x+2/18-5then subtract 2/18 from 27/18 to get 25/18x=-5then divide 25/18 by -5 and your answer will be  -5/18

I'm having some difficulty seeing the diagram clearly.but the question says there's a net inward force on the object.so we know right away,  from newton's 2nd law of motion, thatthat baby is accelerating.  it doesn't even matter which way thenet force is pointing.  if there's any net force, then either theobject's speed or else its direction must be changing.
