It'll last 20 hours. If it travels 110 miles in one hours, 110 times 20 equals 2,200.
Answer:
The fraction of the object that is below the surface of the water is ¹⁷/₂₀
Explanation:
Given;
specific gravity of the object, γ = 0.850
Specific gravity is given as;
Fraction of the object's weight below the surface of water is calculated as;
Therefore, the fraction of the object that is below the surface of the water is ¹⁷/₂₀
Answer:
k1 + k2
Explanation:
Spring 1 has spring constant k1
Spring 2 has spring constant k2
After being applied by the same force, it is clearly mentioned that spring are extended by the same amount i.e. extension of spring 1 is equal to extension of spring 2.
x1 = x2
Since the force exerted to each spring might be different, let's assume F1 for spring 1 and F2 for spring 2. Hence the equations of spring constant for both springs are
k1 = F1/x -> F1 =k1*x
k2 = F2/x -> F2 =k2*x
While F = F1 + F2
Substitute equation of F1 and F2 into the equation of sum of forces
F = F1 + F2
F = k1*x + k2*x
= x(k1 + k2)
Note that this is applicable because both spring have the same extension of x (I repeat, EXTENTION, not length of the spring)
Considering the general equation of spring forces (Hooke's Law) F = kx,
The effective spring constant for the system is k1 + k2
The conclusion is, medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media.
<h3>
Effect of density on speed of sound</h3>
Sound wave is mechanical wave that requires material medium for its propagation.
A high dense medium, is a medium with closely packed molecules. Since sound wave requires material medium for its propagation, it will travel faster in a high dense medium than a less dense medium.
Thus, the speed of sound increases as the density of the medium increases.
<h3>Speed of sound in the different media</h3>
The conclusion that can be made from the speed of sound in the different media is "Medium Q is most likely a solid because solids have the highest density and sound waves travel fastest in high density media".
