In solids, particles or atom are very closely arranged compared to gasses. When these particles are arranged in such proximity, vibrations from sound are very easily transmitted from one particle to another in the solid. Hence, the sound vibrations can travel through the solid medium more quickly than through a gas medium.
Speed of sound also depends on its frequency and the wavelength.
Answer:
When a ray of light passes through a glass slab of a certain thickness, the ray gets displaced or shifted from the original path. This is called lateral shift/displacement.
Explanation:
.
Explanation:
Work done is given by the product of force and displacement.
Case 1,
1. A boy lifts a 2-newton box 0.8 meters.
W = 2 N × 0.8 m = 1.6 J
2. A boy lifts a 5-newton box 0.8 meters.
W = 5 N × 0.8 m = 4 J
3. A boy lifts a 8-newton box 0.2 meters.
W = 8 N × 0.2 m = 1.6 J
4. A boy lifts a 10-newton box 0.2 meters.
W = 10 N × 0.2 m = 2 J
Out of the four options, in option (2) ''A boy lifts a 5-newton box 0.8 meters'', the work done is 4 J. Hence, the greatest work done is 4 J.
Lithium shares more properties with Sodium, because they have the same number of valence electrons (one). Choice 1 is correct. Hope this helps!
