Sound waves travel faster through <em>solids</em> than they do through gases or liquids.  <em>(C)  </em>They don't travel through vacuum at all.

Example:

Speed of sound in normal air . . . around 340 m/s

Speed of sound in water . . . around 1,480 m/s

Speed of sound in iron . . . around 5,120 m/s

To move a heavy object, like a refrigerator what could be used to help decrease the frictional force?
Olenka [21]

Answer:

A. Remove everything in the refrigerator to lighten the load.

B. Put a lubricant between the surface of the object and the floor

C. Use round objects, like pencils , to decrease the friction and push the refrigerator over the pencils more easily

Explanation:

Force of friction is a resistance force which acts between two surfaces which are in relative motion. Friction is both boon and bane. Due to friction, we are able to sit, walk etc but also, due to friction there is dissipation of energy. Friction can be reduced by applying lubricants, reducing contact area, reducing the load.

F = μN where N is the normal force which depends on the mass.

Thus, by reducing the load, force of friction can be reduced. Round objects like wheels can also be used. By this the contact area reduces.

A fixed mass of an ideal gas is heated from 50°C to 80°C (a) at constant volume and (b) at constant pressure. For which case do
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Specific heat at constant pressure is =  1.005 kJ/kg.K

Specific heat at constant volume is =  0.718 kJ/kg.K

Explanation:

given data

temperature T1 =  50°C

temperature T2 = 80°C

solution

we know energy require to heat the air is express as

for constant pressure and volume

Q  = m ×  c × ΔT     ........................1

here m is mass of the gas and c is specific heat of the gas and Δ T is change in temperature of the gas

here both Mass and temperature difference is equal and energy required is dependent on specific heat of air.

and here at constant pressure Specific heat  is greater than the specific heat at constant volume,

so the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one unit mass by one degree at constant pressure is

Specific heat at constant pressure is =  1.005 kJ/kg.K

and

Specific heat at constant volume is =  0.718 kJ/kg.K

The power lines are at a high potential relative to the ground, so there is an electric field between the power lines and the gr
Amanda [17]

Answer:

The tube should be held vertically and perpendicular to the ground.

Explanation:

Answer: The tube should be held vertically and perpendicular to the ground. The reason is as follows:

Reasoning:

The power lines are parallel to the ground hence, their electric field will be perpendicular to the ground and equipotential surface will be cylindrical.

Hence, if you will put fluorescent tube parallel to the ground then both the ends of the tube will lie on the same equipotential surface and the potential difference will be zero.

So, to maximize the potential the ends of the tube must be on different equipotential surfaces. The surface which is near to the power line has high potential value and the surface which is farther from the line has lower potential value.

hence, to maximize the potential difference, the tube must be placed perpendicular to the ground.
