What is the part of the sound wave called where molecules are expanded and are farther apart?

Physics
1 answer:
Lesechka [4]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Rarefactions

Explanation:

The sound waves travel in compressions and rarefactions.

As the name suggests compressions are the areas which particles are closer than their usual positioning.

In rarefactions the vibrating particles can be observed further apart than the usual.

The moment of inertia for a 5500 kg solid disc is 12100 kg-m^2. Find the radius of the disc? (a) 2.111 m (b) 2.579 m (c) 1.679
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The radius of the disc is 2.098 m.

(e) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Moment of inertia I = 12100 kg-m²

Mass of disc m = 5500 kg

Moment of inertia :

The moment of inertia is equal to the product of the mass and square of the radius.

The moment of inertia of the disc is given by

I=\dfrac{mr^2}{2}

Where, m = mass of disc

r = radius of the disc

Put the value into the formula

12100=\dfrac{5500\times r^2}{2}

r=\sqrt{\dfrac{12100\times2}{5500}}

r= 2.098\ m

Hence, The radius of the disc is 2.098 m.

A) an electron has an initial speed of 226000 m/s. if it undergoes an acceleration of 4.0 x 1014 m/s2, how long will it take to
KIM [24]

initial speed of 226000 m/s

acceleration of 4.0 x 1014 m/s2,

speed of 781000 m/s

What is Acceleration?

  • Acceleration is a rate of change of velocity with respect to time with respect to direction and speed.
  • A point or an object moving in a straight line is accelerated if it speeds up or slows down.
  • Acceleration formula can be written as,

                    a = (v - u ) / t m/s²

As we have to find the time taken, the formula can be altered as,

t = \frac{v-u}{a}

where, t - time taken to reach a final speed

v - final velocity

u - initial velocity

a - acceleration.

Substituting all the given values,

t =\frac{781000 - 226000} {4* 1014}

= 1.3875 × 10⁻⁹ seconds.

So, taken to reach the final speed is found to be 1.3 × 10⁻⁹ 8iH..

A 86 kg human stands on the surface of Venus. The mass of Venus is 4.9 × 1024 kg and its radius is 6.1 × 106 m. Collapse questio
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

755.37 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of venus=m_1=4.9\times 10^{24}kg

Radius=r=6.1\times 10^6m

Mass of human=m_2=86 kg

We know that the gravitational force between two bodies

F=G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}

Where G=Gravitational constant=6.67\times 10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2

Using the formula

The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by Venus on the human=F=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 86\times 4.9\times 10^{24}}{(6.1\times 10^6)^2}

The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by Venus on the human=F=755.37N
