Answer:

The speed of sound is faster in aluminum than in water.  

Sound moves faster in most solids than in gasses.

The speed of sound is slightly faster in the summer than in the winter.

Explanation:

As we know that the speed of sound is given by the formula

v = \sqrt{\frac{Y}{\rho}} (in solids)

v = \sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho}} = \sqrt{\frac{\gamma RT}{M}} (in gases)

So here from above formulas we can say that elasticity of solids is more than the elasticity of liquids or gases

so here we have

1). The speed of sound is faster in aluminum than in water.  

3). Sound moves faster in most solids than in gasses.

Also as we can see that the speed of sound is directly depends on the temperature of the medium or gas

so here as we increase the temperature the speed of the sound in that medium will increase

so here we have

5). The speed of sound is slightly faster in the summer than in the winter.

Li is riding her bicycle at 8.0 m/s. She slows down to 4.0 m/s. Her change in velocity is m/s. If Li takes 2 seconds to make thi
forsale [732]
You will have to use this formula:
v = vo + a \times t

Final Velocity (V) = 4m/s
Initial Velocity (Vo) = 8m/s
Acceleration (a) = ? m/s^2
Time (t) = 2 secs

Then:

-> 4 = 8 + a x 2
-> 4 - 8 = 2a
-> -4 = 2a
-> a = -4/2
-> a = -2 m/s^2

Ps: It's value is negative because the she was in retrograde motion.

Answer: Her acceleration is -2 m/s^2.

A centrifuge in a medical laboratory rotates at an angular speed of 3,650 rev/min. when switched off, it rotates through 48.0 re
AlladinOne [14]
First of all we need to convert everything into SI units.

Let's start with the initial angular speed, \omega _i = 3650 rev/min. Keeping in mind that
1 rev = 2 \pi rad
1 min=60 s
we have
\omega _i = 3650  \frac{rev}{min} \cdot  \frac{2 \pi rad/rev}{60 s/min} =382.0 rad/s

And we should also convert the angle covered by the centrifuge:
\theta = 48.0 rev= 48.0 rev \cdot  2 \pi  \frac{rad}{rev}=301.4 rad

This is the angle covered by the centrifuge before it stops, so its final angular speed is \omega_f =0.

To solve the problem we can use the equivalent of
2aS = v_f^2 -v_i^2
of an uniformly accelerated motion but for a rotational motion. It will be
2 \alpha \theta = \omega_f^2-\omega_i^2
And by substituting the numbers, we can find the value of \alpha, the angular acceleration:
\alpha=- \frac{\omega_i^2}{2 \theta}=- \frac{(382 rad/s)^2}{2 \cdot 301.4 rad}=-242.1 rad/s^2

A meteorite strikes the Moon at the speed of 11 km/s. It has KE of 60,500,000 J. What will be its mass?
Vikentia [17]
KE=1/2 mv²
60,500,000 = 1/2 m ( 11,000 m/s )²
60,500,000= 1/2 ( 11,000 )² m
60,500,000= 60,500,000 x m
m= 60,500,000/60,500,000
m= 1 kg
