Why does sound travel faster under water??

Physics
1 answer:
Gre4nikov [31]3 years ago
5 0
In water, the particles are much closer together, and they can quickly transmit vibration energy from one particle to the next. This means that the sound wave travels over four times faster than it would in air, but it takes a lot of energy to start the vibration.

A 45.0-kg sample of ice is at 0.00°C. How much heat is needed to melt it? For water, Lf=334 kJ/kg and Lv=2257 kJ/kg 
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Heat required to change the phase of ice is given by

Q = m* L

here

m = mass of ice

L = latent heat of fusion

now we have

m = 45 kg

L = 334 KJ/kg

now by using above formula

Q = 45 * 334 * 10^3

Q = 1.5 * 10^7 J

In KJ we can convert this as

Q = 1.5 * 10^4 kJ

so the correct answer is D option
