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.

Two boxes are at rest on a smooth, horizontal surface. The boxes are in contact with one another. If box 1 is pushed with a forc
Maslowich

Answer:

mass of box 1 = 2.20 kg

mass of box 2 = 5.93 kg

Explanation:

Let the mass of box 1 and box 2 is respectively

m_1 and m_2

so we will have

Force applied on box 1 then acceleration

a = \frac{F}{m_1 + m_2}

1.50 = \frac{12.2}{m_1 + m_2}

m_1 + m_2 = 8.13

Now we know that contact force between them in above case is given as

F_n = m_2a

8.90 = m_2(1.5)

m_2 = 5.93 kg

now we have

m_1 = 2.20 kg

What changes in airplane longitudinal control must be made to maintain altitude while the airspeed is being decreased?
garik1379 [7]

Explanation:

The  changes can be made in airplane longitudinal control to maintain altitude while the airspeed is being decreased is

We can increase the angle of attack this would compensate for the decreasing lift. As the angle of attack directly controls the distribution of pressure on the wings. Moreover, increase in angle of attack will also cause the drag to increase.
