Below are four statements about acceleration. Which statement is not correct? A Acceleration always involves changing speed. B C
True [87]

Answer:

A. Acceleration always involves changing speed.

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.

Velocity is a vector quantity and is defined as speed in a given direction. Therefore, when any or both of the components of velocity is changing with time, a body is said to be accelerating i.e. acceleration involves a change of speed or change in direction, or a change in both speed and direction.

Considering the statements:

A. Acceleration always involves changing speed is false because acceleration can occur when speed is constant but direction is changing.

B. Changing direction always involves acceleration is true because, a change in direction results in a change in velocity.

C Changing speed always involves acceleration is true because, changing speed results in a change in velocity.

D. Circular motion always involves acceleration is true because in circular motion the direction is always changing, and this results in a change in velocity

What Converts sound to a signal in a telephone
Irina-Kira [14]

The part you talk into, that converts the sound of your voice
into an electrical signal, is a tiny microphone.

-- The sound waves from your voice are ripples in the air.

-- In most microphones, there's a tiny coil of wire hanging
between the ends of a tiny magnet.   

-- When the ripples in the air hit the little coil of wire, they
make it vibrate (wiggle) slightly.

-- When a coil of wire wiggles in the field of a magnet,
a current flows in the wire.

There's
your electrical signal !
