What is one way that light waves differ from sound waves?(1 point)

1 answer:

7 0

Light waves are transverse while sound waves are longitudinal. Light waves can travel in vacuum. Sound waves require a material medium to travel, and hence, cannot travel in vacuum. The speed of light in a medium is constant.

Two uniform solid spheres of the same size, but different mass, are released from rest simultaneously at the same height on a hi

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

options A and C

Explanation:

Since, the spheres are of same size and rotational speed of the sphere are not dependent on their masses. So, both the sphere will reach the bottom of the at the same time with the same speed. But their kinetic energies are different.

So, options A and C are correct.

There is a limit to how long your neck can be. If your neck were too long, no blood would reach your brain! What is the maximum

spayn [35]

Answer:

The maximum height a person's brain could be above his heart is: 1.28 meter.

Explanation:

We need to know what is the normal blood pressure ours hearts so there is a rate: 120/80 (mmHg) and the average will be: 100 (mmHg) and using the Pascal law that relate pressure, density, gravity and height like: $P_{2} = pgh_{1} - pgh_{2} + P_{1}$ , where P is pressure, p is density, g is the gravity acceleration and h is the height. Now we can find the height and delta of pressure will be: P2-P1 = 100 (mmHg), knowing that 1(mmHg) is equal to 133 Pa, we can do the convertion to 13332.2 (Pa), now because the units of Pascal are Newton/(meter^2). Then we solve the formula to get the height: $\frac{P2-P1}{pg} =h$ so we get: $\frac{13332.2}{(1060*9,81)}=Height=1.28(meters).$
