Sound travels faster through rigid material like steel rather than through spongy materials like rubber. Why?

Physics

<span>since sound travels using mechanical waves and needs a material medium to propagate and since mechanical waves spread through vibrations ...and since hard materials have their atoms packed closely....they need to vibrate with a smaller amplitude to pass on the wave....thus sound travels faster in a denser medium than a less dense one.</span>

Describe the differences between a plum pudding model and a nuclear model.
sleet_krkn [62]
The plum pudding model, which has been abandoned since the discovery of the nucleus, stated that electrons were embedded in a "mush" of positive material. The nuclear model says they are placed around a central nucleus.

Describe your ecological footprint. What do the results mean? What are some things
bixtya [17]

The ecological footprint finds the person demand on natural demand.

<h3>What is ecological footprint?</h3>

The ecological footprint is the method promoted by the Global Footprint Network to find human demand on natural capital. The quantity of nature it takes to support people or an economy. It tracks this demand through an ecological accounting system.

Some things which could do to reduce your footprint is Reduce Your Use of Single-Use, Disposable Plastics, Switch to Renewable Energy, Eat Less Meat, Reduce your Waste, Recycle Responsibly, Drive Less, Reduce Your Water Use, Support Local.

Thus, the ecological footprint is to find person demand on natural demand.

A plate drops onto a smooth floor and shatters into three pieces of equal mass.Two of the pieces go off with equal speeds v at r
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Speed of the this part is given as

v_3 = \sqrt2 v

Also the direction of the velocity of the third part of plate is moving along 135 degree with respect to one part of the moving plate

Explanation:

As we know by the momentum conservation of the system

we will have

P_1 + P_2 + P_3 = P_i

here we know that

P_1 = P_2

the momentum of two parts are equal in magnitude but perpendicular to each other

so we will have

P_1 + P_2 = \sqrt{P^2 + P^2}

P_1 + P_2 = \sqrt2 mv

now from above equation we have

P_3 = -(P_1 + P_2)

mv_3 = -(\sqrt 2 mv)

v_3 = \sqrt2 v

Also the direction of the velocity of the third part of plate is moving along 135 degree with respect to one part of the moving plate

A 150-W lamp is placed into a 120-V ac outlet. What is the peak current?
devlian [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Formula

W = I * E

Givens

W = 150

E = 120

I = ?

Solution

150 = I * 120   Divide by 120

150/120 = I

5/4  = I

I = 1.25

Note: This is an edited note. You have to assume that 120 is the RMS voltage in order to go any further. That means that the peak voltage is √2 times the size of 120. The current has the same note applied to it. If the voltage is its rms value, then the current must (assuming the properties of the bulb do not change)

On the other hand, if the voltage is the peak value at 120 then 1.25 will be correct.

However I would go with the other answerer's post and multiply both values by  √2
