Answer: A

Causing air molecules to vibrate

Explanation:

Sound is made by vibrations. And it is an energy. When any object vibrates, it causes movement in the air particles. These particles bump into the particles close to them, which makes them vibrate too causing them to bump into more air particles. This movement, called sound waves, keeps going until they run out of energy.

A gas undergoes a process in a piston–cylinder assembly during which the pressure-specific volume relation is pv1.3 = constant.
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Change in specific internal Energy=250\ \rm Btu/lb

Explanation:

Given:

  • Mass of the gas, m=0.4 lb
  • Initial pressure and volume are p_1=160\ \rm lbf/in^2\ and\ v_1=1\ \rm ft^3\\
  • Final pressure and temperature are p_1=480\ \rm lbf/in^2
  • Heat transfer from the gas is 2.1 Btu

Since the process is isotropic we have

p_1v_1^{1.3}=p_2v_2^{1.3}\\160\times 1^{1.3}=480\times v_2^{1.3}\\v_2=0.43\ \rm ft^3\\

So the final volume of the gas is calculated.

Work in any isotropic is given by w

w=\dfrac{p_1v_1-P_2v_2}{n-1}\\\\w=\dfrac{160\times1-480\times0.43}{1.3-1}\\w=-154.67\ \rm Btu\\

According to the first law of thermodynamics we have

Q=\Delta U+w\\-2.1=\Delta U-154.67\\\Delta U=152.56\ \rm Btu\\

So the Specific Internal Change is given by

\Delta u=\dfrac{\Delta U}{m}\\\Delta u=\dfrac{152.56}{0.4}\\\Delta u=250\ \rm Btu/lb

So the specific Change in Internal energy is calculated.

David is driving a steady 30.0 m/s when he passes Tina, who is sitting in her car at rest. Tina begins to accelerate at a steady
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let after time t , Tina catches up David .

Distance travelled by them are equal ,

Distance travelled by Tina

s = ut + 1/2 a t²

= .5 x 2.10 t²

= 1.05 t²

Distance travelled by David

= 30 t ( because of uniform velocity )

1.05 t² = 30t

t = 28.57 s

Distance travelled by Tina

= 1/2 a t²

= .5 x 2.10 x 28.57²

= 857 m approx.

A person throws a ball straight up in the air. The ball rises to a maximum height and then falls back down so that the person ca
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

The acceleration is about 9.8 m/s2 (down) when the ball is falling.

Explanation:

The ball at maximum height has velocity zero

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² (positive downward and negative upward)

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=u-9.8\times t\\\Rightarrow u=9.8t

The accleration 9.8 m/s² will always be acting on the body in opposite direction when the body is going up and in the same direction when the body is going down. The acceleration on the body will never be zero
