Answer:

1. Light is electromagnetic waves while sound is mechanical.

Light wave is transverse and sound is longitudinal.

Explanation:

2.

<i = <r

3.

A block of wood has density 0.500 g/cm3 and mass 2 000 g. It floats in a container of oil (the oil's density is 0.750 g/cm3). Wh
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

2,666.67cm^3

Explanation:

All we need to do in this problem is divide the mass of the wooden block to the oil's density.

2000/0.750 ≈ 2,666.67cm^3

Best of Luck!

Calculate the acceleration of a 1400-kg car that stops from 39 km/h "on a dime" (on a distance of 1.7 cm).
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

a=-3449.67\frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

The car is under an uniforly accelerated motion. So, we use the kinematic equations. We calculate the acceleration from the following equation:

v_f^2=v_0^2+2ax

We convert the initial speed to \frac{m}{s}

39\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}=10.83\frac{m}{s}

The car stops, so its final speed is zero. Solving for a:

a=\frac{v_0^2}{2x}\\a=-\frac{(10.83\frac{m}{s})^2}{2(1.7*10^{-2}m)}\\a=-3449.67\frac{m}{s^2}
