How does the type of medium affect a sound wave?

1 answer:

7 0

The type of medium affects a sound wave as sound travels with the help of the vibration in particles. As different mediums have different amount and size of particles, for example, the speed of sound is faster through solid than liquid as solids have closely packed particles whereas liquids are loosely packed. Therefore the vibration is quicker in solids than liquids.

Hope it helps you! :)

This is problem of free falling objects, which can be solved using the formula:

V = sqrt(2gy)

Where v is the velocity upon impact

G is the acceleration due to gravity ( 9.81 m/s2)

Y is the height

Since Venessa is 3.5 m

Y = 30 -3.5 = 26.5 m

V = sqrt(2 (9.81 m/s2) ( 26.5 m))

V = 22.8 m/s

What's the formula to find out power

Julli [10]

In general,

   Power = (energy moved) / (time to move the energy) .

If it's mechanical power, then

   Power = (work done) / (time to do the work) .

If it's electrical power, then it can be any one of these:

   Power = (volts) x (amperes)

   Power = (volts)² / (resistance, ohms)

   Power = (amperes)² x (resistance, ohms) .

Whatever kind of energy you're dealing with, power always
turns out to be

(amount of energy produced, used, or moved)
divided by
(time taken to produce, use, or move the energy) .
