The wave speed of sound waves traveling through four different media was measured at a constant temperature. Results are summari

zed in the table. Which statement provides a plausible hypothesis based on these results?
Medium Wave Speed of Sound
Cork 366 m/s
Water 1,433 m/s
Glass 5,640 m/s
Steel 6,100 m/s

A.
Changing the composition of a medium from metals to nonmetals enables sound waves to be transmitted at higher speeds.
B.
Changing the state of a medium from liquid to solid enables sound waves to be transmitted at higher speeds.
C.
Decreasing the brittleness of a medium enables sound waves to be transmitted at higher speeds.
D.
Increasing the density of molecules in a medium enables sound waves to be transmitted at higher speeds.

A mass M is attached to an ideal massless spring. When this system is set in motion with amplitude A, it has a period T. What is
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

<em>The period of the motion will still be equal to T.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

for a system with mass = M

attached to a massless spring.

If the system is set in motion with an amplitude (distance from equilibrium position) A

and has period T

The equation for the period T is given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M}{k} }

where k is the spring constant

If the amplitude is doubled, the distance from equilibrium position to the displacement is doubled.

Increasing the amplitude also increases the restoring force. An increase in the restoring force means the mass is now accelerated to cover more distance in the same period, so the restoring force cancels the effect of the increase in amplitude. Hence, <em>increasing the amplitude has no effect on the period of the mass and spring system.</em>

How does the theory of plate tectonics explain these similarities of location?
Nookie1986 [14]
<span>he theory states that Earth's outermost layer, the lithosphere, is broken into 7 large, rigid pieces called plates: the African, North American, South American, Eurasian, Australian, Antarctic, and Pacific plates. Several minor plates also exist, including the Arabian, Nazca, and Philippines plates. The plates are all moving in different directions and at different speeds</span>

What caused magnetic fields? What happens If you keep breaking a magnet in two until you reach a single atom?
mote1985 [20]

magnetic materials will produce magnetic field near it

All magnets are made up of small magnet type atoms which are known as domains

These all atoms will align itself so that they all produce strong magnetic field along the axis

this magnetic field will become more strong as more number of atoms are aligned.

Now if we break the magnet into small piece then the magnetic field strength will start decreasing and at the end when only one atom will remain then the magnetic field strength will reduce to the field of one atom only.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

A) 1000 kg

Explanation:

vf = vi + at

0 = 20 + (a)(10)

a = -2.0 m/s^2

F = ma

2000 = (m)(2)

m = 1000 kg
