Your boss asks you to design a room that can be as soundproof as possible and provides you with three samples of material. The o

nly information on each sample's label is the material's coefficient of absorption. The coefficient of absorption listed on Sample A is 30%, on Sample B is 47%, and on Sample C is 62%. When your boss asks for your choice and the reasoning behind it, what would you tell him?
A. Sample A would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest.
B. Sample A would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the largest.
C. Sample C would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest.
D. Sample C would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the largest.

The correct answer is Option C) Sample C would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest.


As the coefficient of absorption would define the energy present in the reflected wave, the material C has the highest percentage of absorption i.e. 62% and would be best suitable to make a sound proof room.

Answer: Option C: Sample C would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest.

Explanation:

The absorption coefficient of the samples is given. Sample A has 30%, Sample B has 47% and Sample C has 62%. This means that sample C absorbs the most percentage of energy incident on it. The energy in the reflected wave would be least. Hence, it would be best to use for a room to make it soundproof.

If six moles of hydrogen chloride (HCl) react with plenty of aluminum, how many moles of aluminum chloride (AlCl3) will the reac
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

Two moles of aluminum chloride (AlCl_3) are produced when six miles of hydrogen Chloride (HCl) react with plenty of aluminum

Explanation:

6 Moles of HCl will only react with 2 moles of Al irrespective of the number of moles of each compound present. The reaction wiil take place in this ratio only. The products produced will be 2 moles of AlCl_3 and 3 moles of H_2 this ratio will also be constant.

So, six moles of hydrogen chloride (HCl) will react with plenty of aluminum to produce many 2 moles of aluminum chloride (AlCl_3).

a hawk flies in a horizontal arc of radius 10.3 m at a constant speed of 4.8 m/s. find its centripetal acceleration. answer in u
n200080 [17]

The hawk’s centripetal acceleration is 2.23 m/s²

The magnitude of the acceleration under new conditions is 2.316 m/s²

radius of the horizontal arc = 10.3 m

the initial constant speed = 4.8 m/s

we know that the centripetal acceleration is given by

    a_{c}  = \frac{v^{2} }{r}

   a_{c}  = 23.04/10.3

    a_{c}  = 2.23 m/s²

It continues to fly but now with some tangential acceleration

a_{t} = 0.63 m/s²

therefore the net value of acceleration is given by the resultant of the centripetal acceleration and the tangential acceleration

so

a_{net}  =  \sqrt{a_{c} ^{2} +a_{t} ^{2}   }

a_{net}  =  \sqrt{4.97 + 0.396}

a_{net}  =  2.316 m/s²

So the magnitude of  net acceleration will become 2.316 m/s².

Name human body organs where magnetism is significant
ser-zykov [4K]
It has been hypothesized, and some studies have supported the conjecture,
that certain species of insects and birds are able to sense the direction of external
magnetic fields.

I don't think there is any such notion where human beings are concerned.
