Answer:

increasing the temperature of the rod

Explanation:

Sound wave is a longitudinal wave and its speed in a solid rod is given by the formula

$v = \sqrt{\frac{Y}{\rho}}$

here we know that

Y = young's modulus

$\rho$ = density of the medium

so as we increase the temperature of rod the density of the rod will decrease while the elasticity will remain same

So on increasing the temperature we can say that speed will increase due to decrease in the density

If a trapezoidal channel has side slopes of 1:1, hydraulic depth is 5 feet, the bottom width is 8 feet, flow is 2,312 cubic feet

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

$S = \dfrac{1}{2.5}$

Explanation:

given,

side slope = 1 : 1

hydraulic depth(y) = 5 ft

bottom width (b)= 8 ft

x = 1

Q = 2,312 ft³/s

n = 0.013

slope of channel = ?

$R = \dfrac{A}{P}$

$R = \dfrac{y(b + xy)}{b+2y\sqrt{1+x^2}}$

$R = \dfrac{5(8+ 5)}{8+2\times 5\sqrt{1+1^2}}$

R = 4.69 m

using manning's equation

$Q = \dfrac{1}{n}AR^{2/3} S^{1/2}$

$2312= \dfrac{1}{0.013}\times (5(8+5))\times 4.69^{2/3} S^{1/2}$

$2312=14009.37\times S^{1/2}$

S = 0.406

$S = \dfrac{1}{2.5}$

What are the conditions of the thermonuclear fusion reaction in the sun?

Verizon [17]

High temperature gives the hydrogen atoms enough energy to overcome the electrical repulsion between the protons. Fusion requires temperatures of about 100 million Kelvin (approximately six times hotter than the sun's core).

Two astronauts are playing catch in a zero gravitational field. Astronaut 1 of mass m1 is initially moving to the right with spe

Ede4ka [16]

The final velocity ( $v_1_f$ ) of the first astronaut will be greater than the <em>final velocity</em> of the second astronaut ( $v_2_f$ ) to ensure that the total initial momentum of both astronauts is equal to the total final momentum of both astronauts <em>after throwing the ball</em>.

The given parameters;

Mass of the first astronaut, = m₁
Mass of the second astronaut, = m₂
Initial velocity of the first astronaut, = v₁
Initial velocity of the second astronaut, = v₂ > v₁
Mass of the ball, = m
Speed of the ball, = u
Final velocity of the first astronaut, = $v_f_1$
Final velocity of the second astronaut, = $v_f_2$

The final velocity of the first astronaut relative to the second astronaut after throwing the ball is determined by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum.

$m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 = m_2v_2_f + m_1v_1_f$

if v₂ > v₁, then $v_1_f > v_2_f$ , to conserve the linear momentum.

Thus, the final velocity ( $v_1_f$ ) of the first astronaut will be greater than the <em>final velocity</em> of the second astronaut ( $v_2_f$ ) to ensure that the total initial momentum of both astronauts is equal to the total final momentum of both astronauts after throwing the ball.
