Answer: C. Steel

Explanation: When a sound wave travels through a solid body consisting

of an elastic material, the velocity of the wave is relatively

high. For instance, the velocity of a sound wave traveling

through steel (which is almost perfectly elastic) is about

5,060 meters per second. On the other hand, the velocity

of a sound wave traveling through an inelastic solid is

relatively low. So, for example, the velocity of a sound wave

traveling through lead (which is inelastic) is approximately

1,402 meters per second.

What happens to the magnitude of the gravitational force as the distance between two bodies increase?
Anna [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force will decrease

Explanation:

The gravitational force is one of the four fundamental forces of nature. It is an attractive force exerted between every object having mass.

Its magnitude is given by the equation:

F=\frac{Gm_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1 is the mass of the first object

m2 is the mass of the second object

r is the separation between the objects

As we see from the equation, the magnitude of the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects:

F\propto \frac{1}{r^2}

Therefore, this means that as the distance between two bodies increases, the gravitational force will decrease.

Which part of a wind-powered system ultimately produces the electricity? A. nacelle B. blade C. turbine D. generator
djverab [1.8K]
<span>The correct answer is: (D) Generator

Explanation:
In wind-powered systems, the wind energy turns the blades around the rotor of a wind turbine. That rotor is connected to a generator that generates electricity. In other words, the kinectic energy of the wind is converted into electrical energy by using the generator in the wind-powered systems.</span>

A cylinder with a movable piston contains 2.00 g of helium, He, at room temperature. More helium was added to the cylinder and t
Katen [24]

Answer:

0.358g

Explanation:

Density of Helium = 0.179g/L

ρ=m/v

m=ρv

when the volume was 2L

m1= 0.179*2

m1=0.358g

when the volume increased to 4L

m2= 0.179*4

m2=0.716g

gram of helium added = 0.716g-0.358g

=0.358g
