In an experiment, a ringing bell is placed in a vacuum jar that does not have any air in it. What best describes why the bell is

seen vibrating but not heard? Light waves have high frequencies and are able to pass through the vacuum jar, but the frequencies of sound waves are too low to vibrate a vacuum. Light waves travel faster than sound waves, so they are able to travel through the vacuum jar, but sound waves do not have enough energy to vibrate glass. Light does not need a medium to travel through, but since sound waves must have a medium to vibrate, sound is not created where no air is present. Light is a longitudinal wave that is able to pass through the vacuum jar, but sound is a transverse wave that has to move perpendicular to air.

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the third option. The bell is seen vibrating but not heard because l<span>ight does not need a medium to travel through, but since sound waves must have a medium to vibrate, sound is not created where no air is present. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

You drive on Interstate 10 from San Antonio to Houston, half the time at 72 km/h and the other half at 98 km/h. On the way back
zimovet [89]

Answer: a. 85km/hr b.82.3km/hr

c. 84km/hr

Explanation: first let take the total time from San Antonio to Houston to be 2hr.

Half time 1hr was covered with speed of 72km/hr

Distance = speed*time=72km/hr *1hr

=72km

So too with the second half of 1hr covered with speed of 98km/hr

Distance = 98km

Total distance from Houston to San Antonio is 98+72 =170km

a. Average speed from San Antonio to Houston is

S1 =170/2

=85km/hr

b.half distance from Houston to San Antonio which is 170km/2

= 85km was covered with speed of 72km/hr first half, so time

t = dist/speed

t = 85/72 = 1hr 12 mins

Remaining 85 km covered with a speed of 98km/hr

Time = 85/98 = 0.88*60min

= 52 mins

Total time = 1hr +12mins +52mins

=2hr4mins= 124/60 hr

So average speed = distance/time

=170/124/60

Using reciprocal law

Average speed S2= 170*60/124

= 82.3km/hr

C. Average speed to and fro(entire tripe)

= (85+82.3)/2

=84km/hr

A car travels at a steady 40.0 m/s around a horizontal curve of radius 200 m. What is the minimumcoefficient of static friction
zhenek [66]

Answer:

c. 0.816

Explanation:

Let the mass of car be 'm' and coefficient of static friction be 'μ'.

Given:

Speed of the car (v) = 40.0 m/s

Radius of the curve (R) = 200 m

As the car is making a circular turn, the force acting on it is centripetal force which is given as:

Centripetal force is, F_c=\frac{mv^2}{R}

The frictional force is given as:

Friction = Normal force × Coefficient of static friction

f=\mu N

As there is no vertical motion, therefore, N=mg. So,

f=\mu mg

Now, the centripetal force is provided by the frictional force. Therefore,

Frictional force = Centripetal force

f=F_c\\\\\mu mg=\frac{mv^2}{R}\\\\\mu=\frac{v^2}{Rg}

Plug in the given values and solve for 'μ'. This gives,

\mu = \frac{(40\ m/s)^2}{200\ m\times 9.8\ m/s^2}\\\\\mu=\frac{1600\ m^2/s^2}{1960\ m^2/s^2}\\\\\mu=0.816

Therefore, option (c) is correct.

gladu [14]

Wind Energy is the kind of energy will Cassie uses to power the boat.

What is wind energy?

The method of producing electricity using air or wind currents that naturally occur in the earth's atmosphere is known as wind energy (or wind power). Electricity is produced by modern wind turbines that harness the kinetic energy of the wind. Wind passing across the turbine's blades is the initial step.

What is the major problem with wind energy?

Wind energy has the potential to have negative environmental effects, including the possibility of reducing, fragmenting, or deteriorating habitat for wildlife, fish, and plants, as with all energy supply choices. Furthermore, flying animals like birds and bats may be harmed by turbine blades in operation.
