Answer:
D.vibrations that cause changes in air pressure
Explanation:
Sound is a type of wave.
A wave is a periodic disturbance/oscillation that trasmits energy without transmitting matter. There are two different types of waves:
- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the direction of the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. These waves are characterized by the presence of crests (points of maximum positive displacement) and troughs (points of maximum negative displacement). Examples of transverse wave are electromagnetic waves.
- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the direction of the oscillation is parallel to the direction of motion of the wave. These waves are characterized by the presence of compressions (regions where the density of particle is higher) and rarefactions (regions where the density of particle is lower). Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.
Sound waves, in particular, consist of vibrations of the particles in a medium - most commonly, air - that occur back and forth along the direction of motion of the wave. Because of these motion, the air will have areas of higher pressure (which correspond to the compressions), where the density of particles is higher, and areas of lower pressure (which correspond to the rarefactions), where density of particles is lower.
Answer:
t = 4.21x10⁻⁷ s
Explanation:
The time (t) can be found using the angular velocity (ω):
<em>Where θ: is the angular displacement = π (since it moves halfway through a complete circle)</em>
We have:
<u>Where</u>:
<em>v: is the tangential speed </em>
<em>r: is the radius</em>
The radius can be found equaling the magnetic force with the centripetal force:
Where:
m: is the mass of the alpha particle = 6.64x10⁻²⁷ kg
q: is the charge of the alpha particle = 2*p (proton) = 2*1.6x10⁻¹⁹C
B: is the magnetic field = 0.155 T
Hence, the time is:
Therefore, the time that takes for an alpha particle to move halfway through a complete circle is 4.21x10⁻⁷ s.

This topic is actually quite controversial, but the answer in this case would be C.
Just some food for thought, the 2nd law of thermodynamics entropy of the universe is always increasing, but that doesn't necessarily mean that earth's entropy has to. As long as the net change in entropy of the universe is increasing it doesn't matter if one planet is decreasing a nominal amount. Next, Earth as said is not a closed system and you could argue that the sunlight and energy from the sun is increasing the total energy within the system that is earth meaning that it is increasing in entropy. Next, if you consider increasing entropy as an increase in the number of possible permutations that the universe or parts of the universe can take, then it is completely possible that an ordered planet and life is possible, although rare. This theory explains why there are so many life forms and why entropy is actually increasing when divergent evolution occurs.
Distance travelled in south direction= 1.5hr*0.75km/hr= 1.125km
Distance travlled in north direction= 0.90*2.5=2.25
Net displacement = 2.25-1.125= 1.125 to the north
