Air resistance, also called drag, acts upon a falling body by slowing the body down to thr point where it stops accelerating, and it falls at a constant speed, known as the terminal volocity of a falling object. Air resistance depends on the cross sectional area of the object, which is why the effect of air resistance on a large flat surfaced object is much greater than on a small, streamlined object.
Answer:
because it is less dense than the surrounding air
Explanation:
Answer: The correct answer is "Instrument A is placed closer to Sam than instrument B".
Explanation:
The sound can be soft or loud. Loudness depends on the amplitude of the sound wave. Higher the amplitude, more will be loudness. Lower the amplitude, lesser will be loudness.
Pitch depends on the frequency.
In the given problem, the instruments A and B generate sound waves of the same amplitude and at the same time.
Loudness depends on the sound energy produced as the energy of the sound is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude. It also depends on the distance between the source and the receiver.
Sam records a louder sound from instrument A than from instrument B. It means that there is mismatch in loudness. It can happen due to the placement of the instrument A closer to Sam than instrument B.
Therefore, the correct option is "Instrument A is placed closer to Sam than instrument B".
Answer: b. infrared
Explanation:
The visible light with the smaller frequency is associated with the color red.
While the blue is the one with the larger frequency.
Now, as the name says, infrared waves are the ones with a frequency just below the one of the red visible light.
Where the frequency of the red light is something around (4.3*10^14 Hz)
and the frequency of the infrared waves is in the range between (10^12 Hz and 10^14 Hz)
Then the correct option is b, infrared.
The loudness would increase
