Your boss asks you to design a room that can be as soundproof as possible and provides you with three samples of material. The o

nly information on each sample's label is the material's coefficient of absorption. The coefficient of absorption listed on Sample A is 30%, on Sample B is 47%, and on Sample C is 62%. When your boss asks for your choice and the reasoning behind it, what would you tell him? A. Sample A would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the largest. B. Sample C would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest. C. Sample A would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest. D. Sample C would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the largest.

What were four of Galileo’s discoveries that were important to astronomy?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Explanation:

1. Phases of Venus: Galileo was the first astronomer to use a telescope to observe the celestial objects. Through a telescope he observed that Venus shows the phases just like the Moon. This proved the Heliocentric theory correct against the then prevalent Geocentric theory.

2. Law of Falling bodies: The acceleration due to gravity is independent of weight of the objects that means two bodies of different mass will hit the ground at the same time if dropped from the same height.

3. The uneven surface of the Moon: He observed that the surface of the Moon is uneven and rough.

4. Discovery of the 4 Moons of Jupiter

Sunspots appear dark because they are cooler than the surrounding solar surface. True or false
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

False, Sunspots appear dark (in visible light) due to their low temperature(cooler) than rest of the sun

Explanation:

Sunspots appear dark because they are much cooler( have low temperature than the rest of the surface contained by Sun. As they appear dark, but still they have very temperature that's why so hot. Sunspots have temperatures ranges  3,500 Celsius (3773 kelvin) and the surrounding surface of the sun has a temperature much higher of about 5,500 Celsius(5773 Kelvin). Even if we see a sunspot alone in space,  it will glow so brightly.

A meter stick is suspended vertically at a pivot point 22 cm from the top end. It is rotated on the pivot until it is horizontal
suter [353]

Answer:

5.82812 rad/s

Explanation:

L = Length of meter stick = 1 m = 100 cm

m_c = The center of mass of the stick = \frac{L}{2}-0.22=0.5-0.22=0.28\ m

\omega = Angular velocity

Moment of inertia of the system is given by

I=I_c+mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{mL^2}{12}+mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{m1^2}{12}+m0.28^2\\\Rightarrow I=m(\frac{1}{12}+0.0784)

As the energy in the system is conserved

mgh=I\frac{\omega^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow mgh=m(\frac{1}{12}+0.0784)\frac{\omega^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow gh=(\frac{1}{12}+0.0784)\frac{\omega^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\frac{2gh}{\frac{1}{12}+0.0784}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 9.81\times 0.28}{\frac{1}{12}+0.0784}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=5.82812\ rad/s

The maximum angular velocity is 5.82812 rad/s

What quantity of heat is needed to convert 1 kg of ice at -13 degrees C to steam at 100 degrees C?
Effectus [21]

Answer:

Heat energy needed = 3036.17 kJ

Explanation:

We have

     heat of fusion of water = 334 J/g

     heat of vaporization of water = 2257 J/g

     specific heat of ice = 2.09 J/g·°C

     specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g·°C

     specific heat of steam = 2.09 J/g·°C

Here wee need to convert 1 kg ice from -13°C to vapor at 100°C

First the ice changes to -13°C from 0°C , then it changes to water, then its temperature increases from 0°C to 100°C, then it changes to steam.

Mass of water = 1000 g

Heat energy required to change ice temperature from -13°C to 0°C

          H₁ = mcΔT = 1000 x 2.09 x 13 = 27.17 kJ

Heat energy required to change ice from 0°C to water at 0°C

          H₂ = mL = 1000 x 334 = 334 kJ

Heat energy required to change water temperature from 0°C to 100°C  

          H₃ = mcΔT = 1000 x 4.18 x 100 = 418 kJ    

Heat energy required to change water from 100°C to steam at 100°C  

          H₄ = mL = 1000 x 2257 = 2257 kJ    

Total heat energy required

          H = H₁ +  H₂ + H₃ + H₄ = 27.17 + 334 + 418 +2257 = 3036.17 kJ

Heat energy needed = 3036.17 kJ
