What happens to a sound wave as air temperature decreases?

1 answer:

weqwewe [10]3 years ago

8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

goes down as the temperature decreases, and vice versa. Sound's frequency is independent of temperature, while its speed is directly proportional to temperature. Heat, like sound, is a form of kinetic energy. Molecules at higher temperatures have more energy, thus they can vibrate faster. Since the molecules vibrate faster, sound waves can travel more quickly. ... This is faster than 331 meters per second, which is the speed of sound in air at freezing temperatures.

hope this helps!!!!

Which one of the following is not equivalent to 2.50 miles?

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Choice C is not equivalent to 2.50 miles.

Explanation:

The given data is now converted into feet, inches, kilometers, yards and centimeters:

mi - ft

$x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(5280\,\frac{ft}{mi} \right)$

$x = 13200\,ft$

$x = 1.320\times 10^{4}\,ft$ (Choice A)

mi - in

$x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(5280\,\frac{ft}{mi} \right)\cdot \left(12\,\frac{in}{ft} \right)$

$x = 158400\,in$

$x = 1.584\times 10^{5}$ (Choice B)

mi - km

$x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(1.61\,\frac{km}{mi} \right)$

$x = 4.025\,km$ (Different from Choice C)

mi - yd

$x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(5280\,\frac{ft}{mi}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{1}{3}\,\frac{yd}{ft} \right)$

$x = 4400\,yd$

$x = 4.40\times 10^{3}\,yd$ (Choice D)

mi - cm

$x = (2.50\,mi)\cdot \left(1.61\,\frac{km}{mi} \right)\cdot \left(100000\,\frac{cm}{km}\right)$

$x = 402500\,cm$

$x = 4.025\times 10^{5}\,cm$ (Choice E)

Choice C is not equivalent to 2.50 miles.

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

allows for better thermal equilibrium

Explanation:

Due to the cone shape, most of the liquid will be closer to the bottom than the top. The large surface area of the bottom allows for faster heating.
