Explanation :

Helium gas is present inside air balloon. Its density is less than air i.e. it is lighter than air.

The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s and around 972 m/s in He.

So, when Lisa placed a balloon to her ear, she was able to hear what her sister was whispering from the other side of the room because the sound waves are travelling with faster speed to Lisa.

When she removed the balloon, she was no longer able to hear what her sister was saying. It is because speed of sound in air is <em>343 m/s</em>.

Explain Why a flying aeroplane has more Kinetic Energy than a flying insect?
Airida [17]

Answer:

Why do insects fly so high?

Because the angle of attack is so high, a lot of momentum is transferred downward into the flow. These two features create a large amount of lift force as well as some additional drag. The important feature, however, is the lift.

Why an Aeroplane flying has kinetic  

A flying aeroplane has potential energy has it flies above the ground level. And since the aeroplane is flying motion is associated with it and thus possesses kinetic energy. Hence a flying aeroplane has both potential and kinetic energ

If a sample of an unknown material with a mass of 0.68 g and a volume of 0.8 cm3 is dropped
Anna71 [15]
As the density of the unknown substance is 0.68g/0.8ml = 0.85g/ml, it is less dense than the maple syrup at 1.33g/ml and will float.
