Sound waves move the fastest through which medium?

Physics
2 answers:
pogonyaev3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Sound travels fastest through solids.

Explanation:

This is because molecules in a solid medium are much closer together than those in a liquid or gas, allowing sound waves to travel more quickly through it. In fact, sound waves travel over 17 times faster through steel than through air.

Perhaps to confuse a predator, some tropical gyrinid beetles(whirligig beetles) are colored by optical interference that is duet
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

The grating spacing of the beetle is 1.078*10^{-6}m

Explanation:

The concept to solve this problem is relate to interference effect given in the Young's Slits. Here was demonstrated that the length of the side labelled \lambda is known as the path difference. The equation is given by,

n\lambda = dsin\theta

Where,

\lambda= wavelenght of light

N = a positive integer: 1,2,3...

\theta = Angle from the center of the wall to the dark spot

d= width of the slit

Replacing our values we have that for n=1,

dsin\theta = n\lambda

dsin(30)=(1)(539*10^{-9})

d=1.078*10^{-6}m

Therefore the grating spacing of the beetle is 1.078*10^{-6}m

A 10 g bullet moving horizontally with a speed of 2000 m/s strikes and passes through a 4.0 kg block moving with a speed of 4.2
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The answer is "512 J".

Explanation:

bullet mass m_1 = 10 g= 10^{-2} \ kg\\\\

initial speed u_1 = 2\ \frac{Km}{s}= 2000\ \frac{m}{s}\\\\

block mass m_2 = 4\ Kg

initial speed v_2 =-4.2 \frac{m}{s}

final speed v_2= 0

Let v_1 will be the bullet speed after collision:

throughout the consevation the linear moemuntum

\to M_1V_1+m_2v_2=M_1U_1+m_2u_2\\\\\to (10^{-2} kg) V_1 +0 = (10^{-2} kg)(2000 \frac{m}{s}) + (4 \ kg)(-4.2 \frac{m}{s}) \\\\\ \to 10^{-2} v_1 = 20 -16.8\\\\

                = 320 \frac{m}{s}

The kinetic energy of the bullet in its emerges from the block

k=\frac{1}{2} m_1 v_1^2

   =\frac{1}{2} \times 10^{-2} \times 320\\\\=512 \ J

A soccer ball was kicked off the roof of a building going
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Final vertical velocity = -29m/s

Horizontal distance = 100m

Height = 20.41m

Explanation:

1. The vertical final velocity can be calculated thus: vy = vyo - gt

Where;

vy = vertical velocity (m/s)

vyo = vertical initial velocity (20m/s)

g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s²)

t = time (5s)

Hence, vy = vyo - gt

vy = 20 - (9.8 × 5)

vy = 20 - 49

vy = -29m/s

2. x = V0 x t

Where;

x = horizontal distance (m)

Vo = initial velocity

t = time (s)

x = 20 × 5

x = 100m

3. Maximum height = (voy)²/2g

= 20²/ 2 × 9.8

= 400/19.6

= 20.41m
