What happens when a sound wave passes from oil into air? A. the sound wave slows down and bounces back B. the sound wave slows d
1 answer:
Oil is optically denser than water. When sound/light goes from optically denser medium to optically rarer medium, their velocity increase and they moves away for normal.
<h3><u>Appropriate</u><u> </u><u>Answer</u><u>:</u></h3>The sound wave speeds up and bends
As, In optics we learnt that light undergoes refraction when travels from medium of different densities. Similarly, Sound also follows the law of refraction.
- It is due to the change of speed of water in different mediums, This makes it speed up or down depending upon the medium and their densities.

The final velocity of the block A will be 2.5 m/sec. The principal of the momentum conversation is used in the given problem.
<h3>What is the law of conservation of momentum?</h3>According to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the body before the collision is always equal to the momentum of the body after the collision.
In a given concern, mass m₁ is M, mass m₂ is 3M. Initial speed for the mass m₁ and m₂ will be u₁=5 and u₂=0 m/s respectively,
According to the law of conservation of momentum
Momentum before collision =Momentum after collision
m₁u₁+m₂u₂=(m₁+m₂)v
M×5+3M×0=[M+3M]v
The final velocity is found as;
V=51.25 m/s
The velocity of block A is found as;
Hence, the final velocity of the block A will be 2.5 m/sec.
