Answer: Yes

Air serves as a propagation medium.

Explanation:

Propagation of sound wave require a medium for transmission. Sound is produced by vibrating objects, The matter or substance through which sound is transmitted is called a medium. It can be solid, liquid or gas. Therefore to propagate sounds (human voice) from one end of a lecture hall to the other we need a propagation medium which is air. Air serves as a propagation medium.

bagirrra123 [75]

By the law of momentum conservation:-
=>m¹u¹ + m²u² = m1v1 + m²v² {let East is +ve}
=>u¹ + u² = v¹ + v² {as m1=m2}
=>3.5 - 2.75 = v1-1.5
<span> =>v¹ = 2.25 m/s (East) </span>

A beam of light, with a wavelength of 4170 Å, is shined on sodium, which has a work function (binding energy) of 4.41 × 10 –19 J

Lyrx [107]

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of the light, $\lambda=4170\ A=4170\times 10^{-10}\ m$

Work function of sodium, $W_o=4.41\times 10^{-19}\ J$

The kinetic energy of the ejected electron in terms of work function is given by :

$KE=h\dfrac{c}{\lambda}-W_o\\\\KE=6.63\times 10^{-34}\times \dfrac{3\times 10^8}{4170\times 10^{-10}}-4.41\times 10^{-19}\\\\KE=3.59\times 10^{-20}\ J$

The formula of kinetic energy is given by :

$KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2KE}{m}} \\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 3.59\times 10^{-20}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}} \\\\v=2.8\times 10^5\ m/s$

Hence, this is the required solution.

If a train travels 500 kilometers from Stockholm to

o-na [289]

Hello,

Average speed is total distance divided by total time. From the problem, our total distance is given as 500 kilometers and given time is 5 hours. Therefore, the average speed is:

$\displaystyle{v_\text{average}=\sum_{i=1}^n \dfrac{s_i}{t_i}}\\\\\displaystyle{v=\dfrac{500\ \text{km}}{5 \ \text{h}}}\\\\\displaystyle{v=100 \ \text{km/h}}$

Therefore, the average speed is 100 km/h. Please let me know if you have any questions!

For Mass

K.E = (1/2*mv^2)

Explanation:

Kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared. For example, if a an object with a mass of 10 kg (m = 10 kg) is moving at a velocity of 5 meters per second (v = 5 m/s), the kinetic energy is equal to 125 Joules, or (1/2 * 10 kg) * 5 m/s2.
