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 82-kg fisherman in a 112-kg boat throws a package of mass m = 15 kg horizontally toward the right with a speed of vi = 4.8 m/s
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

0.37 m/s to the left

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.  Initial momentum = final momentum.

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

Initially, both the fisherman/boat and the package are at rest.

0 = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

Plugging in values and solving:

0 = (82 kg + 112 kg) v + (15 kg) (4.8 m/s)

v = -0.37 m/s

The boat's velocity is 0.37 m/s to the left.

A defibrillator containing a 18.4 μF capacitor is used to shock the heart of a patient by holding it to the patient's chest. Jus
gregori [183]

Answer:

The energy E is 1603.008 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitor = 18.4 μF

Voltage = 13.2 kV

We need to calculate the energy

Using formula of energy

E=W=\int{Q}\ dV.....(I)

We know that,

Q=CV

Put the value of Q in equation (I)

E=\int{CV}dV

On integration

E=\dfrac{CV^2}{2}

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{18.4\times10^{-6}\times(13.2\times10^{3})^2}{2}

E=1603.008\ J

Hence, The energy E is 1603.008 J.

A luggage handler pulls a 20.0 kgkg suitcase up a ramp inclined at 32.0 ∘∘ above the horizontal by a force F⃗ F→ of magnitude 16
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

a)    W₁ = 8242.2 J, b)      W₁ = 8242.2 J , c)  W₃ = 0 , d)  W₄ = -189.51 J  ,

f) v = 27.24 m / s

Explanation:

a) Work is defined by

         W = F. d ​​= F d sin θ

where angle is between force and displacement

n this case the suitcase is going up and the outside F is parallel to the plane, so the angle is zero and the cosine is 1

         W = F d

           

Let's calculate

         W = 169 3.8

          W₁ = 8242.2 J

b) the gravitational force is vertical so it has an angle with respect to the horizontal parallel to the plane of

           θ’= 90 - θ

           θ'= 90-32 = 58º

           

           W = m g d thing θ ’

            W = 20 9.8 3.8 thing (180 + tea ’) =

            W = 744.8 cos (180 + 32)

            W₂ = -631.6 J

c) The normal work, as it has 90º with respect to the displacement, its work is zero

         W₃ = 0

d) the work of the friction force

           

Let's write Newton's second law the Y axis

         N- Wy = 0

         Cos 32 = Wy / W

          N = W cos 32

The expression for friction force is

         fr = μ N

         fr = μ mg cos 32

         fr = 0.300 20 9.8 cos (32)

         fr = 49.87 N

The work of the friction force

         W = fr d cos 180

         W₄ = -49.87 3.8

          W₄ = -189.51 J

 

E) The total work

         W = W₁ + W₂ + W₃ + W₄

         W = 8242.2- 631.6 + 0 -189.51

          W_total = 7421.09 J

F) Usmeosel theorem of work and energy

          W = ΔK

          W = ΔK = ½ m v² - 0

          v =√ 2W / m

          v = √ (2 7421.09 / 20)

          v = 27.24 m / s
