Sound waves travel fastest through a A) gas. B) liquid. C) solid. D) vacuum.
earnstyle [38]

Sound waves travel faster through <em>solids</em> than they do through gases or liquids.  <em>(C)  </em>They don't travel through vacuum at all.

Example:

Speed of sound in normal air . . . around 340 m/s

Speed of sound in water . . . around 1,480 m/s

Speed of sound in iron . . . around 5,120 m/s

A horizontal spring with spring constant 950 N/m is attached to a wall. An athlete presses against the free end of the spring, c
OLga [1]

Answer:

66.5N

Explanation:

F = kx

Where F = force

K = spring constant

x = compression

Given

K = 950N/m

x = 7.0cm

F = ?

First convert the compression to meters .

7.0cm = 7.0 x 0.01

= 0.07 meters

Therefore

F = 950 x 0.07

= 66.5N

In a drill during basketball practice, a player runs the length of the 30-meter court and back. The player does this three times
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

0 m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity of an object is given by the net displacement divided by time taken. Displacement is equal to the shortest path covered by the object.

In this problem, a player runs the length of the 30-meter court and back. The player does this three times in 60 seconds.

As the player runs the court and returns to the original point. It would mean that the shortest path covered is 0.

Average velocity = displacement/time

v=0/30

v = 0 m/s

Hence, the correct option is (1).

Why does atmospheric pressure decrease with altitude.
ella [17]

Answer:

<em>Earth's gravity pulls air as close to the surface as possible. ... As altitude increases, the amount of gas molecules in the air decreases—the air becomes less dense than air nearer to sea level. This is what meteorologists and mountaineers mean by "thin air." Thin air exerts less pressure than air at a lower altitude.</em>

In her hand, a softball pitcher swings a ball of mass 0.245 kg around a vertical circular path of radius 59.8 cm before releasin
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

The velocity is v_b = 20.17 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the ball is  m = 0.245 \ kg

   The radius is  r =  59.8 \  cm  =  0.598 \ m

   The force is  F =  30.9 \ N

   The speed of the ball is  v = 16.0 \ m/s.

Generally the kinetic energy at the top of the circle is mathematically represented as

    K_t  =  \frac{1}{2} *  m  *  v^2

=> K_t  =  \frac{1}{2} *  0.245   *  16.0 ^2  

=> K_t  =  31.36 \ J  

Generally the work done by the force applied on the ball from the top to the bottom  is mathematically represented as

       W =  F *  d

Here  d is the length of  a semi - circular arc which is mathematically represented as

       d =  \pi * r

So

      W =  30.9 *  0.598

      W = 18.48 \ J

Generally the kinetic energy at the bottom is mathematically represented as

      K_b  =  \frac{1}{2} *  m *  v_b^2

=>    K_b  =  \frac{1}{2} *  0.245  *  v_b^2

=>   K_b  =  0.1225  *  v_b^2

From the law of energy conservation

     K_t +  W  =K_b

=>    31.36+  18.48 = 0.1225  *  v_b^2

=>    v_b = 20.17 \ m/s
