How fast is sound when traveling through water?

Physics
1 answer:
IgorLugansk [536]3 years ago
4 0

Sound travels 1,480 meters per second, which is about 4.3 times as fast as air. Sound travels much slowly in air. This has to do with the frequency, intensity and amplitude of waves, which are affected differently in water and air.

One barometer tube has twice the cross-sectional area of another. mercury in the smaller tube will rise _____.
Andreas93 [3]
The answer is "the same than the mercury in the bigger tube".

If one barometer tube has twice the cross-sectional area of another, mercury in the smaller tube will rise the same than the mercury in the bigger tube.

The mercury will rise to the point where the column of mercury has the same weight as the force exerted by the atmosphere.

The force exerted by the atmosphere is pressure * cross-sectional area

Anf the weight of the column of mercury, W, will be:

W = m* g

where m = density * volume, and volume = cross-sectional area * height

=> W = density * cross-sectional area * height

Then,  you make W = F and get:

density * cross-sectional area * height = P * cross-sectional area

The term cress-sectional area appears on both sides so it gets cancelled, and the height of the column of mercury does not depend on the cross-sectional area of the barometer.

A magician quickly pulls a silk tablecloth out from under a set table without disturbing the dishes and silverware placed on it.
expeople1 [14]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

  the dishes and silverware are in inertia of rest

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Newton's first law of motion is that things at rest tend to stay at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

A silk tablecloth will have a fairly slippery surface, so there is not much friction to cause tableware to be accelerated.
