The diameter of Earth (to two significant figures) is 7900 miles. Calculate its circumference.

Physics
1 answer:
Bess [88]4 years ago

Answer:

The circumference of the Earth is 24818.58 miles

Explanation:

Analysis conceptual : The formula of the circumference is the following:

L= π*D Formula (1)

Where:

L : is the length of the circumference in miles (mi)

π : is the constant

D : is the diameter of the circumference in miles (mi)

Known data

π = 3.1416

D= 7900 miles:  Diameter of the Earth

Problem development

We apply the formula 1 to calculate the circumference of the Earth  (L):

L= π*7900 miles

L= 24818.58 miles

What happens when a sound wave passes from oil into air? A. the sound wave slows down and bounces back B. the sound wave slows d
Jlenok [28]

Oil is optically denser than water. When sound/light goes from optically denser medium to optically rarer medium, their velocity increase and they moves away for normal.

<h3><u>Appropriate</u><u> </u><u>Answer</u><u>:</u></h3>

The sound wave speeds up and bends

\Large{ \underline{ \boxed{ \pink{ \bf{Option \: (D)}}}}}

As, In optics we learnt that light undergoes refraction when travels from medium of different densities. Similarly, Sound also follows the law of refraction.

  • It is due to the change of speed of water in different mediums, This makes it speed up or down depending upon the medium and their densities.

a student measures the speed of yellow light in water to be 2.00 x 10(to the 8th power) meters per second, 1.87 x 10(to the 8th
mamaluj [8]
<span>3) Neither precise or accurate. This is because of the deviation between the measurements, they vary and are not within a good range. And they are not close to the accepted value. In order to be precise the measurements have to be relatively close to each other, and to be accurate they have to be close to the accepted value.</span>
