Why do sound waves move faster through the ground than through the air? a. Particles of matter are packed more loosely in the gr

ound than in the air. b. Particles of matter are packed more tightly in the ground than in the air. c. Air doesn’t contain any particles of matter to transmit sound waves. d. The elevation of the ground is lower than the elevation of the air space.

The correct answer is

b. Particles of matter are packed more tightly in the ground than in the air.

Sound waves generally move faster in solids than liquids and gases. The reason is that sound waves are vibrations of the molecules of the medium: therefore, if the particles of the medium are closer together (as in solids), the vibrations can be transmitted faster, and the wave can travel faster. On the contrary, in gases the particles are spread apart, so the vibrations are not transmitted so easily (because there are less collisions between the particles) and the wave travels slower.

A 200g(m2) mass is pulling the cart (m1) across the table as shown below. If it covers 1.12m in 4.8 seconds starting from rest,
Vsevolod [243]

Answer: 20.21 kg

Explanation:

The mass hanging from the pulley is pulling the cart. The force by which cart is being pulled is equal to weight of the hanging mass.

F=m_2g

⇒F=0.200 kg ×9.8 m/s²=1.96 N

Since there is no other force acting on the cart and there is no friction, so this force will pull the cart.

The Cart covers 1.12 m distance in 4.8 s.

From the equation of motion,

s = u t + 0.5 × a t²

We will find the acceleration of the cart,

Distance covered, s = 1.12 m

Initial velocity, u = 0 ( staring from rest)

Time taken, t = 4.8 s

⇒1.12 m = 0 + 0.5 × a × (4.8 s)²

⇒a = 0.097 m/s²

Now the force which causes this acceleration is:

F = ma

where m is the mass of the cart and a is the acceleration of the cart

⇒1.96 N = m×0.097 m/s²

⇒m = 20.21 kg

Hence, the mass of the cart is 20.21 kg.

dalvyx [7]
The correct answer is:
<span>B) orange, yellow, green, blue 

the energy of the photons of light is directly proportional to the frequency of the light. This means that the lower the frequency, the lower the energy, and the higher the frequency, the greater the energy. 

Therefore, the order in increasing energy  is exactly the same as the order in increasing frequency, which is:
