These are all the characteristics of what is called the adiabatic process. This process occurs when there is no transfer of heat between the surroundings and the thermodynamic system. This is a key process for thermodynamics and it is of great importance for the first law of thermodynamics.

Human are eurkaryotic.  Eukaryotes are organisms that have cells with a nucleus.  Prokayotes are cells without a nucleus.  Protists are eukaryotic but they are usually single cellular. Also, human are not fungus.  Fungus cannot move and have to get food from its surrounding area.

Comparing sound waves with different frequencies and wavelengths traveling through air,
aleksklad [387]

Explanation:

The speed of sound wave only depends on the property of the medium like density and the bulk modulus of the medium particle. The speed of sound also depends on the temperature of the medium.

On comparing sound waves with different frequencies and wavelengths traveling through air, the speed of the wave doesn’t depend on the frequency or the wavelength. Hence, the correct option is (1).

Maybe you can split up the questions. I will try to answer your first question.

1. In an elastic collision, momentum is conserved. The momentum before the collision is equal to the momentum after the collision. This is a consequence of Newton's 3rd law. (Action = Reaction)

2. Momentum: p = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

m₁ mass of ball A
v₁ velocity of ball A
m₂ mass of ball B
v₂ velocity of ball B

Momentum before the collision:
p = 2*9 + 3*(-6) = 18 - 18 = 0

Momentum after the collision:
p = 2*(-9) + 3*6 = -18 + 18 = 0

3: mv + m(-v) = m(-v) + m(v)
the velocities would reverse.

4.This question is not factual since the energy of an elastic collision must also be conserved. The final velocities should be: v₁ = -1 m/s and v₂ = 5 m/s. That said assuming the given velocities were correct:
before collision
p = 10*3 + 5*(-3) = 30 - 15 = 15
after collision:
p = 10*(-2) + 5 * v₂ = 15
v₂ = 7

5.You figure out.

A(n) _____ satellite system employs many satellites, each in an orbit at an altitude of less than 1,000 miles.
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

The correct answer is a Low earth orbit.

Explanation:

A low earth orbit can be understood as an earth orbit with an altitude of 1,000 miles or less. It is a satellite sustem that employs many satelites, in fact, most man-made objects that are currently in outer-space are part of this low earth orbit. (LEO).

The most famous LEO satellite system is the one from planet earth. Almost every space flight that human beings have ever done are done in LEO, and every spacial station is located in this zone.

In conclusion, A low earth orbit satellite system employs many satellites, each in an orbit at an altitude of less than 1,000 miles.
