You can hear two students talking in the corridor first, then see them due to the speed of sound.

The speed of sound is the distance that sound energy will propagate per unit of time through a medium. At room temperature, the speed of sound in air is about 1125 ft/s (343 m/s).

The speed of sound varies from substance to substance in function of the material density, elasticity and temperature. Typically sound travels most slowly in gases (like air 343 m/s), faster in liquids (like water 1481 m/s) and fastest in solids (like iron 5120 m/s).

<h3>What is velocity?</h3>

It is a physical quantity that indicates the displacement of a mobile per unit of time, it is expressed in units of distance per time, for example (miles/h, km/h).

The difference between relational and reactive aggression is that relational aggression is ______, whereas reactive aggression i

givi [52]

Answer:

Social, physical behavior

Explanation:

The relational aggression is the aggression which caused or give to person by doing harm to his or her relationship or social image.

Reactive aggression is the aggression which is caused by threatening someone, or caused by provocation, or caused due to frustration.

Therefore, the basic differentiation in between both the aggression is that relational aggression is caused by by damaging social status whereas reactive aggression is caused through physical behavior.

What is inertia?by Walter Levin..<br>

Tom [10]

Inertia is directly proportional to mass.

What is Walter Lewin famous for?

Walter Hendrik Gustav Lewin (born January 29, 1936) is a Dutch astrophysicist and former professor of physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Lewin earned his doctorate in nuclear physics in 1965 at the Delft University of Technology and was a member of MIT's physics faculty for 43 years beginning in 1966 until his retirement in 2009.

According to Walter Levin,

The concept of moment of inertia is demonstrated by rolling a series of cylinders down an inclined plane.

Inertia is the resistance of any physical object to a change in its velocity. This includes changes to the object's speed, or direction of motion. An aspect of this property is the tendency of objects to keep moving in a straight line at a constant speed when no forces act upon them.

By rolling a series of cylinders down on an inclined plane , he demonstrated that a cylinder have a smooth friction.

He compares the rolling cylinder by using hollow cylinder and a heavy cylinder , and finalize the result that a hollow cylinder moves slowly but the heavy cylinder move faster.

Hence , By doing this experiment he explained about the inertia that Inertia depend on the mass of the object. As the heavy the object it will take more time to travel or move.

For a projectile launched horizontally, which of the following best describes the downward component of a projectile's velocity?

Angelina_Jolie [31]

C. The downward component of the projectile's velocity continually increases

Explanation:

The motion of a projectile consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (with constant velocity) along the horizontal direction

- A uniformly accelerated motion, with constant acceleration (equal to the acceleration of gravity) in the downward direction

Here we want to study the downward component of the projectile's velocity. Since the vertical motion is a uniformly accelerated motion, the vertical velocity is given by:

$v=u+at$
