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.

Distant galaxies appear to be much larger than those nearby. true or false
jonny [76]

Answer:True

Explanation: Distant galaxies appear to be larger than those close by because of cosmic expansion. light from nearer galaxies travel farther and makes the other to be billions of years away. The farther it takes to get to another galaxy, the bigger it appears

A constant force is exerted for a short time interval on a cart that is initially at rest on an air track. This force gives the
Ilya [14]

Answer:

d) is the same as when it started from rest

Explanation:

using equation of motion

v = u + at

second law of momentum defines

F = ma

a = F /m

the equation becomes

v = u + (F/m)t

from hear

since v is directly proportional to the force and the force remain the same, the increase in the cart speed will also remain the same.
