Sound energy cannot travel through a vacuum.

Explanation:

Waves are periodic disturbance of the space, which travel carrying energy but not matter.

There are two types of waves:

  1. Mechanical waves: mechanical waves propagate through the vibrations of the particles in a medium. Examples of mechanical waves are sound waves.
  2. Electromagnetic waves: these waves consist of periodic oscillations of electric and magnetic fields, perpendicular to each other. These waves do not need a medium to propagate, so they can also travel in a vacuum.

In this problem, we are analyzing sound energy, which is the energy carried by sound waves. Sound waves are mechanical waves, so they need a medium to propagate: therefore, they cannot travel through a vacuum, since there is no medium.

So, sound energy cannot travel through a vacuum.

Se coloca una piedra de 600 g en una Honda de 50 cm y se la hace girar a una velocidad de 4 m/s. Dibuja la fuerza que ejerce la
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Fc = 19.2 N

Explanation:

In this case, the force of the Honda over the rock, is a centripetal force. Then, you have:

F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}

m: mass of the rock = 600g = 0.6 kg

v: tangential velocity of the Honda = 4m/s

r: radius of the Honda = 50cm = 0.5m

You replace the values of m, r and v in the equation for Fc:

F_c=(0.6kg)\frac{(4m/s)^2}{0.5m}\\\\F_c=19.2N

hence, the force has a magnitude of 19.2 N

If the rock would have more mass the centripetal force would be higher

Projectiles that strike objects are good examples of inelastic collisions. A 0.1 kg nail driven by a gas powered nail driver col
Ratling [72]
In an inelastic collision, only momentum is conserved, while energy is not conserved.

1) Velocity of the nail and the block after the collision
This can be found by using the total momentum after the collisions:
p_f=(m+M)v_f=4.8 kg m/s
where
m=0.1 kg is the mass of the nail
M=10 kg is the mass of the block of wood
Rearranging the formula, we find v_f, the velocity of the nail and the block after the collision:
v_f= \frac{p_f}{m+M}= \frac{4.8 kg m/s}{0.1 kg+10 kg}=  0.48 m/s

2) The velocity of the nail before the collision can be found by using the conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum before the collision is given only by the nail (since the block is at rest), and it must be equal to the total momentum after the collision:
p_i = mv_i = p_f
Rearranging the formula, we can find v_i, the velocity of the nail before the collision:
v_i =  \frac{p_f}{m}= \frac{4.8 kg m/s}{0.1 kg}=48 m/s
