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.

Two neutral metal spheres on wood stands are touching. A negatively charged rod is held directly above the top of the left spher
FrozenT [24]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

As we know that metals are able to conduct electricity so, when a negatively charges rod is kept closer to the left sphere then electrons will enter the sphere.

Since, like charges repel each other. Hence, some of the negative changes from the rod will repel the negative charges of left sphere.

As both left and right spheres are touching each other so, the electrons will move towards the right sphere. As a result, there will be too many electrons (negative charge) present on the right sphere and very less electrons present in the left sphere.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement right sphere is negatively charged, another is charged positively, is true.

Bogdan [553]
A rotating disc supplied with constant power where the relationship of the angular velocity of the disc and the number of rotations made by the disc is governed by Newton's second law for rotation. This law is specially made for rotating bodies which is extracted from Newton's second law of motion.

Suppose that a car traveling to the west (-x direction) begins to slow down as it approaches a traffic light. Which statement co
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Its acceleration is positive

Explanation:

As the car is moving in the negative x-direction than after applying brake then there will be a decrease in the acceleration but in the opposite direction.

As decreasing acceleration consider to be negative but the car is moving in negative direction which means increasing acceleration is negative by sign convention but by applying brake acceleration decrease but in opposite direction than it will give positive value of acceleration.

On your first day at work as an electrical technician, you are asked to determine the resistance per meter of a long piece of wi
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

0.06\Omega/m

Explanation:

Firstly, when you measure the voltage across the battery, you get the emf,

E = 13.0 V

In order to proceed we have to assume that the voltmeter offers no loading effect, which is a valid assumption since it has a very high resistance.

Secondly, the wires must be uniform. So the resistance per unit length is constant (say z). Now, even though the ammeter has very little resistance it cannot be ignored as it must be of comparable value/magnitude when compared to the wires. This is can seen in the two cases when currents were measured. Following Ohm's law and the resistance of a length of wire being proportional to it's length, we should have gotten half the current when measuring with the 40 m wire with respect to the 20 m wire (I=\frac{V}{R}). But this is not the case.

Let the resistance of the ammeter be r

Hence, using Ohm's law we get the following 2 equations:

\frac{13}{20z+r} =7.6   .......(1)

\frac{13}{40z+r} =4.5     ......(2)

Substituting the value of r from (2) in (1), we have,

13=152z+7.6\times\frac{13-180z}{4.5}

which simplifying gives us, z=0.0589\Omega/m\approx0.06\Omega/m (which is our required solution)

putting the value of z in either (1) or (2) gives us, r = 0.5325 \Omega
