When the volcano Krakatoa erupted in 1883, it was heard 5000 km away. Which statement about the sound from the volcano is not co

rrect?
a. If such a loud sound were to be made today, an astronaut orbiting in space (a vacuum) at a height of 400 km could hear it.
b. People further from the volcano heard the sound later than people nearer to the volcano.
c. The amplitude of the sound waves would have been smaller further from the volcano.
d. The sound was very loud because a lot of energy was transferred to vibrations of the air.

A block on a horizontal frictionless plane is attached to a spring, as shown below. The block oscillates along the x-axis with s
AleksandrR [38]

The question is about unclear since no picture provided. But from the question, it could be guessed that the box is moving back and forth on the frictionless plane at the amplitude of A in simple harmonic motion.

Answer:

D. At x=0, it's acceleration is at a maximum

Explanation:

As the box move forward, it reaches point A and than move backward. Theoretically, the box will move backwards, through its origin, to point -A and then going forward.

Point A is the maximum displacement of the box in this case. At this point, the box instantaneously stop to go backward. Therefore the velocity at that moment is zero.

From point -A, the box travel forward and keep building up speed due to the release in potential energy of the spring. And at point x=0, the velocity become maximum. After point x=0, the velocity of the box slows down due to the conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy of the spring. And as it reaches point A, it reaches zero velocity.

The same can be said as the box travels backward from point A to -A

Anyone know how to do this?
MrMuchimi

The voltage from one side of the battery all the way around to the other side of the battery is 12v .

If 4 of those volts show up across the circle-thing, then the rest of the 12v ... 8v ... Must show up across the set of parallel rectangles.

To get that answer, I subtracted the 4 from the 12.

Just like it says in choice-C.

If a substance is found to be reactive flammable soluble and explosive what observation is also a physical property
Ainat [17]

Answer:

  • <u><em>soluble</em></u>

Explanation:

Chemical properties only manifest when a chemical reaction occurs. Being reactive, flammable and explosive are chemical properties, because they involve chemical reactions: the substances are changed; the chemical bonds of some substances, called reactants, are broken, and the chemical bonds are created, forming other substances, called products.

Solubility is a<em> physical property</em> because during dissolution no new substances are formed. You can prove it when the solvent evaporates leaving behind the same original substance.

The the observation that the substance is <em>soluble</em> is describing a <em>physical property.</em>

Does the under water pressure depend on the molecules of the air or what does it depend on
miskamm [114]

Answer:the pressure depends on gas and it will be half as much underwater

Explanation:

Water pressure increases with the depth of the water. This is because the weight of the column of water above the object increases. But a large, shallow pond may have more water in it than a small, deep pond.

This is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure, the force per unit area exerted by a liquid on an object. The deeper you go under the sea, the greater the pressure of the water pushing down on you. For every 33 feet (10.06 meters) you go down, the pressure increases by one atmosphere .
