Answer: send the message underwater because a more dense medium would make the sound travel faster.
Explanation:
Dolphins communicate using compression waves - longitudinal waves. Longitudinal waves requires a medium to travel. A longitudinal wave transfers energy by the vibration of medium particles in the direction of the wave motion. Compression are the regions where density of the medium is higher and rarefaction is a low density region.
A longitudinal wave travels faster in a denser medium. It has maximum speed in solid and minimum in gas. Thus, to transfer message quickly to dolphin B., dolphin A should send the message underwater and not in air. This is because water has higher density than air. Molecules collide more quickly in water than in air and it takes less time for signal to travel.
Answer:
Yes , insulation has no role
Answer:
Explanation:
Using the below formula
Speed of sound = ( distance between observers) *2/(total time taken)
Now putt the given values ,
time taken = 0.80 sec
distance = 256 m
hence
V of sound= 256*2/0.80
V of sound = 640 m/sec
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Potential difference has a SI Unit of Volt and its symbol is <em>V</em>. Hence answer is <u>B</u>.
A is wrong as it has the unit Joule <em>(J)</em> which is the SI unit for energy.
C is wrong as it has the unit Newton <em>(N)</em> which is the SI unit for force.
D is wrong as it has the unit Coulomb <em>(C)</em> which is the SI unit of charge.
This leads to a paradox known as the Gibbs paradox, after Josiah Willard Gibbs. The paradox allows for the entropy of closed systems to decrease, violating the second law of thermodynamics. A related paradox is the "mixing paradox".
