S waves can't go through liquids. S waves do pass through the mantle to the core. On certain parts of the earth's surface there are "shadow zones" or places where these waves are not transmitted.

In the absence of gravity, t<span>he rocks and debris
would never accrete into a planet. (B)

Also by the way, it wouldn't matter much, because
there wouldn't be a star to orbit around, AND orbits
wouldn't exist either.</span>

A high speed train is traveling at a speed of 44.7 m/s when the engineer sounds the 415 Hz warning horn. The speed of sound is 3
il63 [147K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed of the source of sound = v = 44.7 m/s

Speed of sound = V = 343 m/s

a) Apparent  frequency as the train approaches = f =  [V /(V -v) ] × f

= [343 / (343 - 44.7) ] × 415  = 477.18 Hz

Wave length =  λ = v / f = 343 / 477.18 = 0.719 m

b) Frequency heard as the train leaves = f ' =  [V / ( V + v) ] f

                                                                     = [343 / { 343 + 44.7 ) ] x 415

                                                                      = 367.2 Hz

Wavelength when leaving = v / f = 343 / 367.2 = 0.934 m

A chunk of ice with a mass of 1.2 kg melts and absorbs 3.33 x 10³J of energy. Which best describes what has happened in this sys
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

- Its entropy increases.

Explanation:

Entropy is defined as a 'measure of the amount of energy in a physical system that cannot be used to do work.' It is also employed to denote randomness, disorder, or uncertainty of the arrangement/system. In the given system, the melting of ice denotes the 'increase in entropy' as the amount of energy unavailable to do work increases('absorbs 3.33 x 10³J of energy'). Thus, <u>this signifies that the entropy increases with a rise in temperature as it allows the substance to have greater kinetic energy</u>.
