Based on the type of medium, what can you assume about the speed of sound in glass?

Physics
1 answer:
adelina 88 [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

"It will be more than the speed of sound waves in air at 20*C and water at 20*C."

Explanation:

Speed of sound in a medium depends upon the density and elasticity of the medium.

If the elasticity of a medium is greater and the density of that medium is lower, sound will travel faster. Although density is also a factor but the major factor is Elasticity.

Hence, sound travel faster in solids than in liquids and even slower in gases due to elasticity difference.

                        Speed of sound = V = \sqrt{\frac{Elasticity}{Density} }

That is why the speed of sound in glass will be more than the speed of sound waves in air at 20*C and water at 20*C.

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

"The principle is that the slope of the line on a position-time graph is equal to the velocity of the object. If the object is moving with a velocity of +4 m/s, then the slope of the line will be +4 m/s."

The plates of a spherical capacitor have radii 6.25 cm and 15.0 crn. The space between the two spheres is filled with a material
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Capacitance is 0.572×10⁻¹⁰ Farad

Explanation:

Radius = R₁ = 6.25 cm = 6.25×10⁻² m

Radius = R₂ = 15 cm = 15×10⁻² m

Dielectric constant = k = 4.8

Electric constant = ε₀ = 8.854×10⁻¹² F/m

ε/ε₀=k

ε=kε₀

Capacitance\ (C)=\frac{4\pi k\epsilon_0 R_1\times R_2}{R_2-R_1}\\\Rightarrow C=\frac{4\pi 4.8\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 15\times 10^{-2}\times 6.25\times 10^{-2}}{15\times 10^{-2}-6.25\times 10^{-2}}\\\Rightarrow C=0.572\times 10^{-10}\ Farad

∴ Capacitance is 0.572×10⁻¹⁰ Farad

Write the formula of Lever, Pulleys, wheel and axle and inclined plane.<br>​
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Lever => d_{e} = d_{r}

Pulley => G = M x n (gravitational acceleration)

Wheel and axle => M.A = Radius of the wheel/radius of the axle = R/r

Inclined plane => It can be divided into two components: Fi = Fg * sinθ - parallel to inclined plane. Fn = Fg * cosθ - perpendicular one.

A 5 kg mass is oscillating on a spring with a time period of 2.8 seconds. What is the spring constant k of the spring?
katrin [286]

Answer:

<em>k = 25.18 N/m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Simple Harmonic Oscillator</u>

It consists of a weight attached to one end of a spring being allowed to move forth and back.

If m is the mass of the weight and k is the constant of the spring, the period of the oscillation is given by:

\displaystyle T=2\pi {\sqrt {\frac {m}{k}}}

If the period is known, we can find the value of the constant by solving for k:

\displaystyle k=m\left(\frac{2\pi}{T}\right)^2

Substituting the given values m=5 Kg and T=2.8 seconds:

\displaystyle k=5 \left(\frac{2\pi}{2.8}\right)^2

k = 25.18 N/m

Solve for the unknown in each of these circuits
Tamiku [17]

<u> Ohms law: </u> This law relates voltage difference between two points. Mathematically, the law states that V=IR;

                Where

                          V = voltage difference ; in volts

                          I = Current ; in Amperes

                          R = Resistance ; in ohms

<u>1. Answer : </u> given that R = 10 ; V= 12 V ;  I = ?

From ohms law,    I = V/R

                                = 12/10

                                = 1.2 Amp.

<u>2. Answer:</u>  given that R = 10 ; V= ? ;  I = 5

From ohms law,    V = IR

                                 = 10×5 = 50 V

<u>3 . Answer:</u>  given that R = ? ; V= 120 ;  I = 5

From ohms law,    R =  V/I

                                 = 120/5

                                 = 24 Ω

<u>4 . Answer:</u>  given that R = ? ; V= 10 ;  I = 20

From ohms law,    R =  V/I

                                 = 10/20

                                 = 0.5 Ω

<u>5 . Answer:</u>  given that R = 480 ; V= 24 ;  I = ?

From ohms law,  I =  V/R

                              = 24/480

                              = 0.05 A

<u>6. Answer:</u>  given that R = 150 ; V= ? ;  I = 1

From ohms law,  V = IR

                               = 1 × 150

                               = 150 V
