Answer:

Light does not need a medium to travel travel through, but since waves must have a medium to vibrate, sound is not created where no air is present.

A container is ﬁlled with water to a depth of 26.2 cm. On top of the water ﬂoats a 16.1 cm thick layer of oil with a density of

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

1.34 x 10^3 Pa

Explanation:

density of oil = 0.85 x 10^3 kg/m^3

g = 9.81 m/s^2

height of oil column = 16.1 cm = 0.161 m

Pressure on the surface of water = height of oil column x density of oil x g

= 0.161 x 0.85 x 10^3 x 9.81 = 1.34 x 10^3 Pa

Thus, the pressure on the surface of water is 1.34 x 10^3 Pa.

the specific heat of water is 4.2 j/c. if it takes 31,500 joules to heat to warm 750 g of water, what was the temperature change

defon

The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of a substance by $\Delta T$ is given by
$Q=mC_s \Delta T$
where
m is the mass of the substance
$C_s$ the specific heat capacity
$\Delta T$ the increase in temperature

In our problem, the mass of the water is m=750 g, the specific heat is $C_s = 4.2 J/g ^{\circ}C$ and the amount of heat supplied is $Q=31500 J$ , so if we re-arrange the previous formula we find the increase in temperature of the water:
$\Delta T= \frac{Q}{m C_s}= \frac{31500 J}{(750 g)(4.20 J/g^{\circ} C)}=10^{\circ}C$

A transformer is designed to provide 6 V from a 150 V supply. If the primary coil has 1000 turns, how many turns does the second

zavuch27 [327]

The applicable relationship is N1/N2 = V1/V2, meaning the ratio of primary voltage to secondary voltage is equal to the ratio of primary turns to secondary turns.

Here N1 = 1000, V1 = 250, V2 = 400V and N2 = TBD.

Rewriting the above relationship, N2 = N1 V2/V1 = 1000 x 400/250 = 1600 turns.
