Through which medium will sound have slowest speed? Group of answer choices

Physics
1 answer:
Vinvika [58]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Air

Explanation: Of the three mediums (gas, liquid, and solid) sound waves travel the slowest through gases, faster through liquids, and fastest through solids.  Air and hydrogen have nearly the same elastic properties, but the density of hydrogen is less than that of air. Sound thus travels faster (about 4 times as fast) in hydrogen than in air.

An astronaut in space pushes a piece of equipment to get it into the correct position. What does Newton's third law of motion te
Agata [3.3K]

Answer: C and D

The equipment would have stayed in the same exact location indefinitely until the very moment the astronaut applied force to it.

The equipment will continue moving in the same direction indefinitely unless another force is applied to stop it.

Explanation: According to Newton's first law of motion which state that; A body at rest will continue to be at rest, or in linear motion will continue to move in a straight line, unless an external force act on it.

The equipment would have stayed in the same exact location indefinitely until the very moment the astronaut applied force to it.

immediately the astronaut apply force to the object by pushing in, Newton's first law will be manifested in which the equipment will continue moving in the same direction indefinitely unless another force is applied to stop it.

Three cars (car F, car G, and car H) are moving with the same speed and slam on their brakes. The most massive car is car F, and
Crazy boy [7]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Normal Force, frictional force, kinematic equations of motion and Newton's second law.

From the kinematic equations of motion we know that the relationship of acceleration, velocity and distance is given by

v_f^2=v_i^2+2ax

Where,

v_f = Final velocity

v_i = Initial Velocity

a = Acceleration

x = Displacement

Acceleration can be expressed in terms of the drag coefficient by means of

F_f = \mu_k (mg)  \rightarrowFrictional Force

F = ma \rightarrow Force by Newton's second Law

Where,

m = mass

a= acceleration

\mu_k = Kinetic frictional coefficient

g = Gravity

Equating both equation we have that

F_f = F

\mu_k mg=ma

a = \mu_k g

Therefore,

v_f^2=v_i^2+2ax

0=v_i^2+2(\mu_k g)x

Re-arrange to find x,

x = \frac{v_i^2}{2(-\mu_k g)}

The distance traveled by the car depends on the coefficient of kinetic friction, acceleration due to gravity and initial velocity, therefore the three cars will stop at the same distance.

How many amps are there in the current of a circuit if the voltage source is 140v and the resistance is 2 ohms?
VLD [36.1K]
Voltage (V)= Current (I) * Resistance (R)
I=V/R=140/2=70A

Hope this helps!
