Longitudinal sound waves cannot propagate through

Physics
1 answer:
strojnjashka [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A vacuum

Explanation:

Sound waves are examples of mechanical waves. Mechanical waves are waves which are transmitted through the vibrations of the particles in a medium.

For example, sound waves in air consist of oscillations of the air particles, which vibrate back and forth (longitudinal wave) along the direction of propagation of the wave itself.

Given this definition of mechanical wave, we see that such a wave cannot propagate if there is no medium, because there are no particles that would oscillate. Therefore, among the choices given, the following one:

a vacuum

represent the only situation in which a sound wave cannot propagate through: in fact, there are no particles in a vacuum, so the oscillations cannot occur. In all other cases, instead, sound waves can propagate.

Difference between reproducibility and replicability
victus00 [196]
Suppose you are doing an experiment where you determine the value of one parameter, say density of a liquid. You have two methods in doing this. By finding the mass and volume, and by using a densitometer. Reproducibility is when you get the same value of density for both methods. Replicability is when you have similar results in one method. So, replicability is a measure of precision, while reproducibility is a measure of accuracy.

A square loop of wire with a small resistance is moved with constant speed from a field free region into a region of uniform B f
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

A) False

B) False

C) True

D) False

Explanation:

A) False, because when leaving the field, the coil experiences a magnetic force to the right.

B) When the loop is entering the field, the magnetic flux through it will increase. Thus, induced magnetic field will try to decrease the magnetic flux i.e. the induced magnetic field will be opposite to the applied magnetic field. The applied magnetic field is into the plane of figure and thus the induced magnetic field is out of the plane of figure. Due to that reason, the current would be counterclockwise. So the statement is false.

C) When the loop is leaving the field, the magnetic flux through the loop will decrease. Thus, induced magnetic field will try to increase the magnetic flux i.e. the inducued magnetic field will be in the same direction as the applied magnetic field. The applied magnetic field is into the plane of figure and thus the induced magnetic field is also into the plane of figure. Due to that reason, the current would be clockwise. So the statement is true.

D) False because when entering the field magnetic force will be toward left side

A bucket filled woth water seems light while it sinks into water.Also show their relation using formula
slavikrds [6]

Answer: This phenomenon happens due to upthrust exerted by water.

Explanation:

We know that,

Liquid Pressure is directly proportional to the height of the vertical column in the liquid.(P∝h)

When a bucket filled water is sunk into the water container, there occur difference in the pressure in top and bottom of the water container. Due to this, water exerts an upward force on the bucket filled with water. This is called Uprthrust.

Upthrust on the bucket makes the bucket filled with water lose some of it's weight and causes apparent loss in weight.

Hence, the bucket filled with water seems light while it sinks into water.
