Air is a good medium for sound waves because it is

Physics
1 answer:
Paul [167]1 year 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.

Steel blocks A and B, which have equal masses, are at TA = 300 oC and T8 = 400 oC. Block C, with mc - 2mA, is at TC = 350 oC. Bl
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

b) TA = TB = TC

Explanation:

  • When put in contact each other, and isolated, both blocks will exchange heat till they reach to thermal equilibrium.
  • During this process, the body at a higher temperature, will loss heat, tat it will be gained by the other body.
  • The equilibrium condition will be reached when the following equation be met:

       \Delta Q = c_{st}* m_{A} * (T_{fin}  - T_{0A} ) = c_{st}* m_{B} * (T_{0B}  - T_{fin} )

  • Replacing by the values of T₀A = 300º C, and T₀B = 400ºC, and simplifying common terms as mA = mB, we can solve for  Tfin, as follows:

       (400 \ºC - T_{fin}) = (T_{fin} - 300 \ºC) \\ \\  2* T_{fin} = 700\ºC\\ \\ T_{fin} = 350\ºC

  • So, when both blocks reach to equilibrium, they will be at a common final temperature, 350ºC.
  • When put in contact with block C, at the same temperature, at that instant, the three blocks will have the same common temperature of 350 ºC.
  • So, option b) is the right one.

A 2kg block has 70J of KE. It then travels 1.5 meters up a hill. As it travels up the hill friction does -12J of work on the blo
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

v = 5.34[m/s]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must use the theorem of work and energy conservation. This theorem tells us that the sum of the mechanical energy in the initial state plus the work on or performed by a body must be equal to the mechanical energy in the final state.

Mechanical energy is defined as the sum of energies, kinetic, potential, and elastic.

E₁ = mechanical energy at initial state [J]

E_{1}=E_{pot}+E_{kin}+E_{elas}\\

In the initial state, we only have kinetic energy, potential energy is not had since the reference point is taken below 1.5[m], and the reference point is taken as potential energy equal to zero.

In the final state, you have kinetic energy and potential since the car has climbed 1.5[m] of the hill. Elastic energy is not available since there are no springs.

E₂ = mechanical energy at final state [J]

E_{2}=E_{kin}+E_{pot}

Now we can use the first statement to get the first equation:

E_{1}+W_{1-2}=E_{2}

where:

W₁₋₂ = work from the state 1 to 2.

E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

h = elevation = 1.5 [m]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

70 - 12 = \frac{1}{2}*2*v^{2}+2*9.81*1.5

58 = v^{2} +29.43\\v^{2} =28.57\\v=\sqrt{28.57}\\v=5.34[m/s]

If you run at 8m/s for 15 minutes how far will you go
sashaice [31]

Answer: 7200 m

Explanation: The solution is, first convert 15 minutes to seconds.

15 mins x 60 s / 1 min = 900 s

Use the formula for speed which is v= d/t then derive for d.

d = vt

= 8 m/s ( 900s)

= 7200 m

How to tell if a circuit is connected in.a series.or parallel?
stepladder [879]

Series circuits split the voltage of resistors, so if you see several diodes connected <em>in series </em>or all next to each other, just a complete loop, it will be in series.

Parallel circuits split the current of resistors, so if you see several diodes connected along different branches or pathways, it will be in parallel.
