Sound will travel slowest through which medium?

Physics

The speed of sound depends on the medium in which it is transported.

Sound travels fastest through solids, slower through liquids and slowest through gases. 

So it will travel slowest through water at 55 degrees

Answer:

water at 55°C

Explanation:

Sound is a mechanical wave, which travels through a medium by the vibrations of the particles in the medium, which collide with each other, allowing the sound wave to propagate through the medium.

Based on this explanation, we can understand two facts:

1) sound waves travel faster in solids than in liquids. This is because the particles inside a solid are much closer together than in a liquid, so the wave can be transferred faster because there are more collisions between the particles of the solid

2) The speed of a sound wave increases as the temperature increases. This is because at higher temperatures, particles move faster, so the wave can be transmitted faster.

Therefore, #1 tells us that sound travels slower in water than in ice, while #2 tells us that sound travels slower at 55°C  than at 75°C . Therefore, sound travels slowest in water at 55°C .

Which is the result of using a machine?
Eddi Din [679]
Correct Answers is A.

The machines gives us some mechanical advantage. This means the mechanical average makes the work output greater than the work input
Simple most example is a lever. The force applied is smaller and the output work is larger as compared to input.

Option B cannot be true, as there must be a force to get some work done.
Option C and D are inverse of what a machine is designed for. A small force can be exerted through a large distance to have a large force exerted through a small distance. Common Example of this principle is a screw opener.

What is the surface area to volume ratio of this cube
tamaranim1 [39]

I can't see that cube from here.

But if the length of the side of the cube is ' K ' units,
then the surface area of the cube is  6K² units², and
the volume of the cube is  K³ units³.

The ratio of the surface area to the volume is

               (6K² units²) / (K³ units³)  =  (6) / (K units) .

So for example, if the side of the cube is 2 inches, then
the ratio of surface area to volume is  "3 per inch".

That's the answer.  I did the whole thing in order to earn
the points, but I don't expect you to understand much of it,
because I see from your username that you suck at math.
I'm sorry you decided that.  Now that you've put up the
brick wall, it'll be even harder for any math to find its way
in there, and you'll miss out on a lot of the fun.
