Answer:

See the explanation.

Explanation:

The speeds of sound depend upon the temperature of the medium. As the temperature increased in the afternoon, the speed of sound increases. Then the time taken by reflected sound will be less than 0.1 sec in the afternoon. And to hear an echo the time gap between an original sound and reflected sound must be at least 0.1 sec. That is why the student could not hear the echo at all in the afternoon.

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

A substance in its liquid state is closer to the density of its solid phase than the density of its gaseous phase.

Explanation:

For a substance in its liquid state we can expect the density of the substance more closer to the density of its solid state than its gaseous state because the the inter-molecular space is much close near to incompressible in the liquid state and the the inter-molecular force of attraction is much higher as compared to gaseous state.

In contrast to the molecular properties in liquid state gases have almost negligible inter-molecular force of attraction and very huge inter-molecular spacing which makes it well compressible.

maxonik [38]

Answer: work must be done on the system  (Option A)

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics is the fundamental law of nature; it states that energy can be transferred from cold objects to hot objects only, if work is done on the system. If energy is added to the system then as a result the thermal energy would increase. Second law of thermodynamics is used to determine whether a process is spontaneous or not.  Moreover,the second law of thermodynamics is also used in refrigerators.
