True or false: When your ear detects sound, there is an actual collision of particles from the sound wave that hit your ear drum

Answer:

True...

Explanation:

When these high amplitude vibrations impinge upon the eardrum, they produce a very forceful displacement of the eardrum from its rest position. The ear's ability to do this allows us to perceive the pitch of sounds by detection of the wave's frequencies, the loudness of sound by detection of the wave's ...

When the sound waves hit your eardrum, they cause it to vibrate—the same way that a real drum vibrates when you hit it with a drumstick. The vibrations in your eardrum are then transferred via three tiny bones inside your ear into a fluid-filled chamber called the cochlea (pronounced KOK-lee-uh).

Answer:

True: For a sound wave to propagate, air particles must be displaced in the direction of propagation - it is the displacement of these particles that causes the eardrum to vibrate and recognize the sound.

If a bullet travels at 593.0 m/s, what is its speed in miles per hour?
Ksenya-84 [330]

We have 1 \; mile = 1609.34\; meters. So, 1 \; meter = \frac{1}{1609.34} \;mile.

1 \; hour = 3600 \; s. So 1 \; s = \frac{1}{3600}  \; hour.

Thus we can convert the units of the given quantity.

That is,

593\;m/s=593\;\frac{1/1609.34}{1/3600} \;miles/hour\\
593\;m/s=1,326.51\;miles/hour.

The quantity is converted to the required units.

Viewed through a spectroscope, the spectral profile of a yellow street lamp has a narrow line in the yellow region of the visibl
muminat

Answer:

discrete lines are observed by the spectroscope, the emission of the lamp is of the ATOMIC source

Explanation:

Bulbs can emit light in several ways:

* When the emission is carried out by the heating of its filament, the bulb is called incandescent, in general its spectrum is similar to that of a black body, this is a continuous spectrum with a maximum dependent on the fourth power of the temperature of the filament.

* The emission can be by atomic transitions, in this case there is a discrete spectrum formed by the spectral lines of the material that forms the gas of the lamp, in general for the yellow emission the most used materials are mercury and sodium or a mixture of they.

Consequently, as discrete lines are observed by the spectroscope, the emission of the lamp is of the ATOMIC type
