Answer:

Lowering the humidity of the air.

Explanation:

The mathematical formula for the speed of sound wave is given by :

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{\gamma RT}{M}}

Where

\gamma is the adiabatic constant

T is the temperature of air

M is the molecular mass of the gas

or

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{B}{\rho}}

B is the bulk modulus

\rho is the density of the air

As the humidity of the air increases, then the number of water molecules increase. As a result, molar mass decreases and ultimately the speed of sound increases and vice versa.

So, the correct option is (A) " lowering the humidity of the air ". Hence, this is the required solution.

You are asked to calculate how long a new battery will last on a flashlight when the flashlight is turned on. how long should yo
valina [46]

Answer:

           Depends on the capacity of battery. Mostly our phones flashlight can be used up to 8 to 10hrs continuosly

Explanation:

Capacity of the battery is level to which battery is charged, &  amount of current drawn by the flashlight, you can calculate the answer yourself if u know the capacity of that light.

Moreover you can calculate this by using equation,

         E =Pt

So, for time

      t=E/P

Batteries are rated in Amp hours, like 10 amp hours will supply us 1 amp for 10 hours

2 amps will give us 5 hours

to learn more about lasting of flashlight,

Sam and Reagan are arguing about waves. Sam says that sound waves are transverse, but Reagan says they Are longitude. Who is rig
sergij07 [2.7K]

The correct answer is Reagan is right because sound waves are compressional waves.

Reason is because Sound is transmitted through gases, plasma, and liquids as longitudinal waves, also called compression waves. It requires a medium to propagate. Through solids, however, it can be transmitted as both longitudinal waves and transverse waves.
