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>.

Answer:

The answer is D

Explanation:

Sound does not travel around the air outside of the balloon as well as it does through the denser air pressure inside the balloon

A force of 8.0 N is along x direction, another force of 6.0 N is along +y direction. If both forces are acting on a point object
Darya [45]

Answer:

Resultant force, R = 10 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting along +x direction, F_x=8\ N

Force acting along +y direction, F_y=6\ N

Both the forces are acting on a point object located at the origin. Let the resultant force of the object is given by R. So,

R=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2+F_xF_y\ cos\theta}

Here \theta=90^{\circ}

R=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

R=\sqrt{8^2+6^2}

R = 10 N

So, the resultant force on the object is 10 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

You are operating a powerboat at night. Your red sidelight must be visible to boats approaching from which direction(s)
Dmitriy789 [7]

The answer is the red sidelight on a powerboat should be visible from the front and from the left (port side).

What are Sidelights?

  • There is various combinations of lights that must be used on a boat when it is dark, and these are:
  • Sidelights: These lights are called combination lights and are red and green. The red sidelight must be visible from the port side and the green light indicates the right side (the starboard).
  • Stern light: The stern light is seen at the back end of the vessel.
  • Masthead Light: The masthead light is a white light that shines forwards and on all sides of the vessel. All powered vessels must use this light.
  • All-Round white light: This light is the major light that is used to join the masthead light and the stern light. This single light is visible to all vessels from all directions.
  • Thus, as a rule for a boat rider, he should show the vision of red light and it should be visible from the front and from the left (port side).
