Answer:

When water freezes, it's volume INcreases, which naturally results in a DEcrease in it's density. That's why cubes and bergs float.

Explanation:

I'm pretty sure that water is the only known substance that behaves this way. Which is lucky for us, because if it didn't, then life on Earth would be impossible. Oceans and lakes would freeze from the bottom up. Once! And then they would never thaw, because the sun could never cut through the layer of warm water on top, to melt the ice below.

If a stress of 1.05 × 107 n/m2 is applied to his ligament, how much will it stretch? the young\'s modulus for the acl is 1.10 ×
Ainat [17]

As we know that

Young's\: Modulus = \frac{stress}{strain}

here we know that

Young's Modulus = 1.10 \times 10^8

stress = 1.05 \times 10^7

now by the above formula we will have

1.10 \times 10^8 = \frac{1.05 \times 10^7}{strain}

strain = \frac{1.05 \times 10^7}{1.10 \times 10^8}

strain = 0.095

Marysya12 [62]

Explanation:

A) The distance between the two successive compressions (or rarefactions) is actually called the wavelength of the longitudinal waves.

B) Wavelengths of longitudinal and transverse waves are comparable in the fact that in a transverse wave, the particles move perpendicular to the direction the wave travels whereas in a longitudinal wave the particles are displaced along the direction to the direction the wave travels
