For an increase in the bulk modulus of a material but without any change in the density, what happens to the speed of sound in t

The speed of sound, c, is given by the Newton-Laplace formula
c = \sqrt{ \frac{K}{\rho} }
where
K = bulk modulus
ρ =  density

Because the density is constant, the speed of sound is proportional to the square root of the bulk modulus.

Therefore when the bulk modulus increases, the speed of sound increases by the square root of the bulk modulus.

For example, if K is doubled, then
c = \sqrt{2K} = \sqrt{2} \sqrt{K}

Answer:
If the bulk modulus increases by a factor of n, then c increases by a factor of √n.

Why is the SI system a consistent system?
Goryan [66]
S.I. System is same for all countries, so if any Scientist uses it, then another Scientist from any place around the world can figure it out, that what is he saying, how exactly is the magnitude of the object. That's why it is a Consistent system

Hope this helps!

THE RIGHT ANSWER WILL RECEIVE A BRAINLESS AND POINTS AND THANKS!!!
poizon [28]

Answer:

391.67Hz

Explanation:

The fundamental frequency formula in string is expressed as;

Fo = V/2L

V is the velocity of the wave = 329m/s

L is the length of the string = 42cm = 0.42m

Substitute

Fo = 329/2(0.42)

Fo = 329/0.84

Fo = 391.67Hertz

Hence the  fundamental frequency of a mandolin string is 391.67Hz

Why do you think it is a driving force of weather around the world?
Finger [1]

Answer:

The sun.

Explanation:

The sun provides energy for living organisms, and it drives our planet’s weather and climate patterns.

Remember, Earth is spherical and the energy from the sun does not reach all areas with equal intensity. Areas exposed to the sun are directly on the sun’s rays (i.e. those nearest to the equator) and hence, receive greater solar input. In contrast, those in higher latitudes receive sunlight that is spread over a larger area and that has taken a longer path through the atmosphere. As a result, these higher latitudes receive less solar energy.

Also, ocean circulation and precipitation are all factors of weather

The normal force acting on an object and the force of static friction do zero work on the object. However the reason that the wo
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

<em>The normal force is perpendicular to the displacement</em>

<em>The static friction force produces no displacement</em>

Explanation:

Work Done By Special Forces

The work is a physical magnitude that measures the dot product of the force applied to an object by the displacement it produces in it.

W=\vec F\ \vec r

It can be written in its scalar version as

W=F.d.cos\theta

Being F and d the magnitudes of the force and displacement, and \theta the angle between them

If the angle is zero, the work is at maximum, it the angle is 90°, the work is zero. If the angle is between 90° and 180°, the work is negative.

The normal force acts in the vertical direction when the object is being pushed horizontally. It means the angle between the force and the displacement is 90°, thus the work is

W=N.d.cos90^o=0

The work is zero because the force and the displacement are perpendicular

The static friction force exists only when the object is being applied a force of a magnitude not large enough to produce movement, i.e. the object is at rest. If the object is moved, the friction force is still present, but it's called dynamic friction force, usually smaller than the static.

Since in this case, there is no displacement, d=0, and the work is

W=F_r(0)cos180^o=0

Gauss’ law: a. Relates the surface charge density to the electric field.b. Relates the electric field at points on a closed surf
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

b. Relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the flux of certain fields through a closed surface is proportional to the magnitude of the sources of that field within the same surface. The electric flux expresses the measure of the electric field that crosses a certain surface. Therefore, the electric field on a closed surface is proportional to the net charge enclosed by that surface.
