Rachel collected data on the speed of sound waves passing through different media.

Physics
1 answer:
Helga [31]3 years ago

The conclusion is, medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media.

<h3>Effect of density on speed of sound</h3>

Sound wave is mechanical wave that requires material medium for its propagation.

A high dense medium, is a medium with closely packed molecules. Since sound wave requires material medium for its propagation, it will travel faster in a high dense medium than a less dense medium.

Thus, the speed of sound increases as the density of the medium increases.

<h3>Speed of sound in the different media</h3>

The conclusion that can be made from the speed of sound in the different media is "Medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media".

he nucleus of 8Be, which consists of 4 protons and 4 neutrons, is very unstable and spontaneously breaks into two alpha particle
12345 [234]

Answer:

A) F = 21.134 N

B) a = 3180.76 × 10^(24) m/s²

Explanation:

A) We are given;

Mass of alpha particle; m = 4.0026 u

Now, 1u = 1.66 × 10^(-27) kg

Thus; m = 4.0026 × 1.66 × 10^(-27)

Distance apart; r = 6.60 × 10^(−15) m

Charge on the alpha particle is;

q = 2e = 2 × 1.6 × 10^(-19) C

Formula for the force between the two alpha particles is;

F = kq1.q2/r²

k = 8.99 × 10^(9) N.m²/C²

q1 = q2 = 2 × 1.6 × 10^(-19) C

F = 8.99 × 10^(9) × (2 × 1.6 × 10^(-19))²/(6.60 × 10^(−15))²

F = 21.134 N

B) acceleration is given by;

a = F/m

Thus; a = 21.134/(4.0026 × 1.66 × 10^(-27))

a = 3180.76 × 10^(24) m/s²

A parallel-plate air capacitor is made from two plates 0.200{\rm m} square, spaced 0.800 {\rm cm} apart. It is connected to a 12
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

A)  C = 4.425 10⁻¹³ F,  B) Q = 6.31 10⁻¹¹ C,  C)  E = 8.9 10⁴ N / C,  

D)  u_{E} = 3.19 10⁻⁹ J

Explanation:

Part A. Capacitance is

           C = ε₀ A / d

in this case distance is d = 0.800 cm = 0.800 10⁻² m and the area of ​​the plates is x = 0.200 cm= 0.2 10⁻² m, all the quantities must be in the SI system for the result to be in Farads

           A = x²

           A = (0.2 10⁻²)²

           A = 4 10⁻⁶ m

let's calculate

          C = 8.85 10⁻¹² 4 10⁻⁶ / 0.8 10⁻²

          C = 44.25 10⁻¹⁴ F

          C = 4.425 10⁻¹³ F

Part B. The charge on each plate is

          Q = C ΔV

           Q = 4.425 10⁻¹³ 120

           Q = 6.31 10⁻¹¹ C

Part C. the electric field of a plate is

           E = σ / 2ε₀

where the charge density is

            σ = Q / A

we substitute

             E =\frac{Q}{ 2\epsilon_o A}

       

let's calculate

             E = \frac{6.31^{-11} }{ 2 \ 8.85^{-12} \ 4^{-6} }

             E = 8.9 10⁴ N / C

Part D. stored energy

              u_{E} = ½ C V²

               u_{E} = ½ 4.425 10⁻¹³ 120²

               u_{E} = 3.19 10⁻⁹ J

Comet is seen after a long period of time. Why?​
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Long-period comets have orbital periods longer than 200 years. ... Since it is the sublimation of these volatiles from the nucleus of the comet as it nears the Sun that gives rise to the coma and highly-visible tails, long-period comets have more material with which to put on a show.
