Answer:

Sound vibrations travel in a wave pattern, and we call these vibrations sound waves. Sound waves move by vibrating objects and these objects vibrate other surrounding objects, carrying the sound along. ... Sound can move through the air, water, or solids, as long as there are particles to bounce off of.

Which of the following is the best definition of gravity?

IRISSAK [1]

In physics, gravity is the natural force that causes things to fall toward the earth. The noun gravity can also mean seriousness or solemnity. Someone who conducts themselves with an air of gravity is someone who takes what they are doing seriously.

In a ballistics test, a 52g bullet hits a sand bag and stops after moving 1.34 m. If the initial bullat

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Friction force on the bullet is 58.7 N opposite to its velocity

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the bullet is 55 m/s

after travelling into the sand bag by distance d = 1.34 m it comes to rest

so final speed

$v_f = 0$

now we can use kinematics top find the acceleration of the bullet

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

so we have

$0 - 55^2 = 2(a)(1.34)$

$a = -1128.7 m/s^2$

now by Newton's II law we know that

$F = ma$

so we have

$F = (0.052)(-1128.7)$

$F = -58.7 N$

When does a lightbulb carry more current, (a) immediately after it is turned on and the glow of the metal filament is increasing

emmasim [6.3K]

A lightbulb carries more current immediately after it is turned on and the glow of the metal filament is increasing; option A.

<h3>What is current?</h3>

Current refers to the flow of electric charges typically electrons.

Current flowing through a metallic material decreases with increase in temperature of the material.

This is because the resistance of the metal increases with increase in temperature.

Therefore, for a light bulb, the current flow through it will be maximum when it is just turned on because the temperature, and hence the resistance of the filament is at its lowest.

In conclusion, current flow decreases with increase in resistance.

What is the repulsive force between two pith balls that are 8.00 cm apart and have equal charges of −25.0 nc? g?

Daniel [21]

To calculate the force between two negative charges, we use the formula which is given by the Coulomb`s Law as

$F=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2} }{r^{2} }$

Here, $q_{1}$ and $q_{2}$ are the charges on the pith balls, r is the separation between the charges and k is constant and its value is $8.99\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2$ .

Given $q_{1} =q_{2} =-25 nC=-25\times 10^{-9}C$ and $r=8 cm=8\times10^{-2} m$ .

Substituting these values in above formula we get,

$F= 8.99\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2\frac{(-25\times 10^{-9}C)(-25\times 10^{-9}C)}{(8\times10^{-2} m)^2} \\\\\ F= 877929.7\times 10^{-9} N\\\\F=8.8\times10^{-4}N$

Thus, the repulsive force between two pith balls is $8.8\times10^{-4}N$ .
