B.compressions

Explanation:

This is a characteristics of the "longitudinal waves".

Longitudinal waves are waves where the oscillation of the particles of the medium occurs in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave (an example of longitudinal waves are sound waves). As a consequence, this oscillation creates some regions where particles are closer together, and other regions where particles are more spread apart. The former are called "compressions", while the latter are called "rarefactions".

What are dimensionless quantities??​
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Characteristic numbers are dimensionless numbers used in fluid dynamics to describe a character of the flow. To compare a real situation with a small-scale model it is necessary to keep the important characteristic numbers the same. Names of these numbers were standardized in ISO 31, part 12.

What is the speed of a commercial jet which travels form New York to Los Angeles (4800) in 6 hours
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Speed = 800km}/hr

Explanation:

Given

Distance = 4800km

Time = 6hr

Required

Determine the speed of the jet

The speed is calculated as:

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}

Substitute 4800 km for Distance and 6hr for Time

Speed = \frac{4800km}{6hr}

Speed = 800km}/hr

<em>Hence, the speed of the commercial jet is 800km/hr</em>

The magnitude of the momentum of an object is the product of its mass m and speed v. If m = 3 kg and v = 1.5 m/s, what is the ma
Oliga [24]

Answer:

Momentum, p = 5 kg-m/s

Explanation:

The magnitude of the momentum of an object is the product of its mass m and speed v i.e.

p = m v

Mass, m = 3 kg

Velocity, v = 1.5 m/s

So, momentum of this object is given by :

p=3\ kg\times 1.5\ m/s

p = 4.5 kg-m/s

or

p = 5 kg-m/s

So, the magnitude of momentum is 5 kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

How does diffraction enable somebody to hear your voice from anywhere in the room?
Vilka [71]
Diffraction means spreading out of waves that has the same wavelength as the size of the gap. Sound waves have high wavelength and so it diffracts\spreads out and enables anyone to hear your voice from anywhere outside the room.

For inside the room, the sound waves doesn't actually diffract. They collide with the air particles, causing a series of compressions and rarefactions which spreads out in the air particles and anyone can hear your voice.

Air is the medium for the sound waves to travel.
