Sound energy cannot travel through a vacuum.
Explanation:
Waves are periodic disturbance of the space, which travel carrying energy but not matter.
There are two types of waves:
- Mechanical waves: mechanical waves propagate through the vibrations of the particles in a medium. Examples of mechanical waves are sound waves.
- Electromagnetic waves: these waves consist of periodic oscillations of electric and magnetic fields, perpendicular to each other. These waves do not need a medium to propagate, so they can also travel in a vacuum.
In this problem, we are analyzing sound energy, which is the energy carried by sound waves. Sound waves are mechanical waves, so they need a medium to propagate: therefore, they cannot travel through a vacuum, since there is no medium.
So, sound energy cannot travel through a vacuum.

Answer:
friction is the centripetal force for cars moving around a racetrack. 2. D. 3. D. 4. D. 5. Answers will vary. Sample Answer: The tether ball experiences ...
Explanation:
According to Coulomb's Law , The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges. So ,if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the electrostatic force will become weak by one fourth of the original force.
a substance dissolves.
like adding a soluble salt to water, it just dissolves, i.e dissociates homogeneously as water is able to dissociate salts (ionic compounds) into its ions. (it can also dissociate other non-ionic compounds like HCL)
the salt still remains chemically as a salt and is unchanged chemically thus it is not an indication of a chemical reaction as no chemical reaction has taken place.
the formation of a precipitate is a chemical reaction because a new substance (i.e new chemical) is formed. For example adding aqueous sodium hydroxide into an aqueous solution with CU2+ cations will form a blue precipitate (that is copper (II) hydroxide which is insoluble, hence it precipitates). Since a new chemical is formed, a chemical reaction has taken place and thus indicates a chemical reaction.
color change... im not sure but usually a color change will only occur when a new substance is formed. Like iron corrodes (i.e rust) slowly in moist air to form hydrated iron (III) oxide that is rust. (brown color).
usually adding a mixture to a mixture has little energy change, i.e little heat taken in by the reaction mixture or little heat given out by the reaction mixture. Whereas when a new substance is formed, there is usually noticeable energy change like the container gets colder or hotter (without heat being supplied of course). For example dissolving basic oxides into water releases energy ( more energy released than gained = exothermic reaction).
i think that should be the answer... hope it helped :D
