Justify why sound waves need a medium to propagate with example??

Physics
1 answer:
Lana71 [14]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Sound needs a material medium for their propagation like solid, liquid or gas to travel because the molecules of solid, liquid and gases carry sound waves from one point to another. Sound cannot progress through the vacuum because the vacuum has no molecules which can vibrate and carry the sound waves.

A uniform disk has a mass of 3.7 kg and a radius of 0.40 m. The disk is mounted on frictionless bearings and is used as a turnta
nevsk [136]

Answer:

1.25 kgm²/sec

Explanation:

Disk inertia, Jd =

Jd = 1/2 * 3.7 * 0.40² = 0.2960 kgm²

Disk angular speed =

ωd = 0.1047 * 30 = 3.1416 rad/sec

Hollow cylinder inertia =

Jc = 3.7 * 0.40² = 0.592 kgm²

Initial Kinetic Energy of the disk

Ekd = 1/2 * Jd * ωd²

Ekd = 0.148 * 9.87

Ekd = 1.4607 joule

Ekd = (Jc + 1/2*Jd) * ω²

Final angular speed =

ω² = Ekd/(Jc+1/2*Jd)

ω² = 1.4607/(0.592+0.148)

ω² = 1.4607/0.74

ω² = 1.974

ω = √1.974

ω = 1.405 rad/sec

Final angular momentum =

L = (Jd+Jc) * ω

L = 0.888 * 1.405

L = 1.25 kgm²/sec

The coefficient of kinetic friction between Gary's shoes and the wet kitchen floor is 0.09. If Gary has a mass of 65 kg, what is
mariarad [96]

Answer:

57 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram.  There are three forces:

Weight force mg pulling down.

Normal force N pushing up.

Friction force F pushing horizontally.

Sum of the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

Friction force is the product of normal force and coefficient of friction:

F = Nμ

F = mgμ

F = (65 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (0.09)

F = 57.3 N

Rounded, the friction force is 57 N.
