Answer:

The speed of sound depends on the medium thru which it travels in contrast to light (electromagnetic) which can travel thru a vacuum.

The speed of sound will depend on the density of the air thru which it travels - the density  of air is particularly affected by

humidity - water vapor in the air contributes to less density

temperature - warmer is less dense

motion of air - if the air is not motionless the speed will be affected

A car drives 215 km east and then 45 km north. What is the magnitude of the car’s displacement? Round your answer to the nearest
34kurt

Displacement = (straight-line distance between the start point and end point) .

Since the road east is perpendicular to the road north,
the car drove two legs of a right triangle, and the magnitude
of its final displacement is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

    Length of the hypotenuse = √ (215² + 45²)

                                              =  √ (46,225 + 2,025)

                                              =   √ 48,250

                                              =       219.7 miles .
