Answer:

A) empty space

Explanation:

Sound waves are basically vibrations that travel through medium. If there is no medium for the vibrations to transfer from one place to another the sound wave will not travel.

Empty space or vacuum lacks any of the medium. Thus there is nothing through which vibrations can travel. This is the reason we can't hear anything if we go in space.

Rest all the options have a medium through which sound wave can travel.

Wire 1 has a resistance R1. Wire 2 is made of the same material, with length 1/2 as long and diameter 1/4. What is the resistanc
hodyreva [135]

-- reduce the length of a wire to 1/2 . . . cut the resistance in half

-- reduce the diameter to 1/4 . . . reduce the cross-section area by (1/4²) . . . increase the resistance by 16x .

-- R2 = (R1) · (1/2) · (16)  =  8 · R1

<em>-- R2 / R1  =  8</em>

A 20-volt relay has a coil resistance of 200 ohms. How much current does it draw? (I=0.1A)
TEA [102]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) According to ohm's law

V = IR

V is the supply voltage

R is the resistance

I is the current

Given Resistance = 200ohms

Voltage = 20V

I = V/R

I = 20/200

I = 0.1Amperes

b) Using the ohm's law formula

V= IR

Where voltage = 12volts

Current I = 3A

Resistance R = V/I

R = 12/3

R = 4ohms

c) Power generated by the battery is expressed as P = IV

I = P/V

Given Power = 2Watts

V = 1.5volts

I = 2/1.5

I = 1.33A

d) similarly, power = current I × voltage V

V = P/I

Given P = 90watts

I = 4.5A

V = 90/4.5

V = 20volts

e) Given power = 1.5kW = 1500watts

Voltage = 300volts

I = P/V

I = 1500/300

I = 5A

A disk-shaped grindstone of mass 1.7 kg and radius 8 cm is spinning at 730 rev/min. After the power is shut off, a woman continu
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

0.186 N-m        

Explanation:

mass of the grindstone, m=1.7 kg

radius, r=8 cm

Frequency, f=730 rev/min = 12.16 rev/s

time, t=9s

final angular velocity, \omega=0

Initial angular velocity,

\omega_o=2\pi f\\=2\pi (12.16) rad/s\\= 76.36 rad/s

Angular acceleration of the grind stone is:

\alpha=\frac{\omega-\omega_o}{t}\\\Rightarrow \alpha =\frac{0-76.36}{9} = -8.48 rad/s^2

Moment of inertia:

I=mr^2+mr^2=2mr^2

I=2\times 1.7 kg\times (0.08m)^2= 0.022kg-m^2

Torque exerted by the ax on the grind stone is:

\tau=I\alpha\\\tau=0.022\times (-8.48) \\\tau=0.186N-m

A manometer that is filled with water (rho=1000 kg/m3) is connected to a wind tunnel to measure the pressure inside the test sec
Anna [14]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts performed to the absolute pressure based on the reference pressure (atmospheric) and the pressure that is generated due to the height of the column of the measured liquid.

In mathematical terms the previous concept can be expressed as

P_{abs} = P_{atm} -\rho gh

Where

P_{atm}=Atmospheric Pressure

\rho =Density

g = Gravitational acceleration

h = Height

Our values are given as

h = 10*10^{-3}m

g = 9.8m/s

\rho_{water} = 1000kg/m^3

P_{atm} = 100kPa

Replacing we have then that

P_{abs} = P_{atm} -\rho gh

P_{abs} = 100 -(1000)(9.8)(10*10^{-3})

P_{abs} = 99.9019kPa

Therefore the absolute pressure in the test section is 99.9019kPa

Explain different layers of atmosphere and the pressure in each layer. Draw diagram​
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Our atmosphere has five different layers. They are:

1. Troposphere: This is the most important layer of the atmosphere with an average height of 13 km from the earth. It is in this layer that we find the air that we breathe. Almost all the weather phenomena such as rainfall, fog and hailstorm occur here.

2. Stratosphere: This layer extends up to a height of 50 km. It presents the most ideal condition for flying airplanes. It contains a layer of ozone gas which protects us from the harmful effect of the sun rays.

3. Mesosphere: This layer extends up to a height of 80 km. Meteorites bum up in this layer on entering from the space.

4. Thermosphere: In this layer, the temperature rises very rapidly with increasing height. The ionosphere is a part of this layer. It extends between 80-400 km. This layer helps in radio transmission. Radio waves transmitted from the earth the reflected back to the earth by this layer.

5. Exosphere: It is the uppermost layer where there is very thin air. Light gases such as helium and hydrogen float into space from here.
