Answer:

Sound energy wave is transferred through a substance as a series of compressions.

Explanation:

Sound is caused by regular oscillating that produce regions of compression (high pressure) and rarefaction (low pressure) that move through a substance. Sound not only travels through air, it can travel through any substance, solid, liquid or gas. Whales can hear other whales across whole oceans through water, an Earthquake is low frequency sound moving through the solid Earth

A vibrating object compresses the air and sound waves move from the source, much like waves in water if you drop a stone into it. These sound waves can carry great distances depending on their loudness and frequency.

A 150kg person stands on a compression spring with spring constant 10000n/m and nominal length of 0.50.what is the total length

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

The total length of the spring would be 0.65 m

Explanation:

The Concept

Hooke's law evaluates the increment of spring in relation to the force acting on the body. Hooke's law states that for a spring undergoing deformation, the force applied is directly proportional to the deformation experienced by the spring. Hooke's law is represented thus;

F = k x ..................1

where F is the force applied to the spring

k is the spring constant

x is the spring stretch or extension

Step by Step Calculations

We have to obtain x before adding it to the nominal length, We make x the subject formula in equation 1;

x = F/k

but F = m x g

so, x = (m x g)/k

given that, the mass of the person m =150 kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/ $s^{2}$

k is the spring constant = 10000 N/m

then x = (9.81 m/ $s^{2}$ x 150 kg)/10000 N/m

x = 0.14715 m

the extension experienced by the spring after the compression is 0.14715 m

The total length of the spring would be;

L = 0.14715 m + 0.5 m = 0.64715

L ≈ 0.65 m

Therefore the total length of the spring would be 0.65 m

A person measures his or her heart rate by counting the number of beats in 30s. If 40±1 beats are counted in 30.0±0.5s, what is

nordsb [41]

Answer:

$Rate = 1.33 \pm 0.055$ beats per second

Explanation:

Number of heart beats = $40 \pm 1$

time taken = $30.0 \pm 0.5 s$

now we have

$N = 40 \pm 2.5$ %

$t = 30.0 \pm 1.67$ %

now rate of heart beat is defined as number of heart beat per unit of time

so we have

$Rate = \frac{N}{t}$

$Rate = \frac{40 \pm 2.5}{30 \pm 1.67}$

so we have

$Rate = 1.33 \pm (2.5 + 1.67 )$

$Rate = 1.33 \pm 4.17$ %

$Rate = 1.33 \pm 0.055$ beats per second

The metal cases of electrical appliances are connected to an earth wire.Which statement is not correct?A The live wire may becom

labwork [276]

Given that metal cases of electrical appliances are connected to the wire, let's select the statement which is not correct from the list of statements.

The earth wire is used to protect you and help reduce the risk of receiving an electric shock. The earth wire reduces the risk of electric shock by creating a path for a fault or lose current to flow to the Earth.

The Live wire may become loose and touch the metal case. In this case, the earth wire will channel the fault current to the earth thereby reducing the risk of electric shock.

If the metal case becomes live, the earth wire conducts current to the ground. This helps prevent electric shock from the metal case.

The Earth wire has low or no resistance. It is always made of copper.

It provides a low resistance path to the ground.

Therefore, the statement ''the earth wire needs to have high resistance'' is NOT current.

ANSWER:

C. The earth wire needs to have a high reistance.
