Air is a good medium for sound waves because it is

Physics
1 answer:
Paul [167]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

air does not have a modulus of rigidity.

Explanation:

Since air is completely elastic medium, that is, it does not have a modulus of rigidity, therefore sound waves in air are longitudinal.

From a hot air balloon that is at rest at a certain height, a projectile is launched horizontally at 30m / s, how fast will it h
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A. 50 m/s

Explanation:

Given in the y direction:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

t = 4 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (10 m/s²) (4 s) + 0 m/s

v = 40 m/s

In the x direction, the velocity is constant at 30 m/s.

The overall speed is:

v² = (30 m/s)² + (40 m/s)²

v = 50 m/s

You are an astronaut floating alongside your space ship. If you throw a baseball with a speed of 10 m/s, you will move at:
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

There is no friction to stop you from moving BC you are in space, however you have a larger mass than the ball, so it takes more force to get you up to the same speed as the baseball. You will move in the opposite direction of the ball because you exerted force on the ball in one direction and therefore yourself in the opposing direction.

An apple drops from the tree and falls freely. The apple is originally at rest a height H0 above the ground. The ground is cover
zzz [600]

Answer:

Explanation:

The distance travelled in the free fall is H - h  

Since the apple originally started from rest we can use v^2 =  u^2 + 2 x g x s  where v is the final velocity, g the accln due to gravity and s the distance travelled and u is the initial velocity = 0

So the velocity just before it enters the grass is sq rt [2 x g x (H - h)]

Once in the grass, it slows down at a constant rate which means that the acceleration (a) during this period is constant.

So once again using the same formula we have v = O and u = sq rt[2 x g x (H-h)]

so since v^2 = u^2 + 2 x a x s then  

O^2 = 2 x g x (H-h) + 2 x a x h

{O^2 - 2 x g x (H - h)}/(2 x h) = a
