What happens when a sound wave passes from oil into air? A. the sound wave slows down and bounces back B. the sound wave slows d
Jlenok [28]

Oil is optically denser than water. When sound/light goes from optically denser medium to optically rarer medium, their velocity increase and they moves away for normal.

<h3><u>Appropriate</u><u> </u><u>Answer</u><u>:</u></h3>

The sound wave speeds up and bends

\Large{ \underline{ \boxed{ \pink{ \bf{Option \: (D)}}}}}

As, In optics we learnt that light undergoes refraction when travels from medium of different densities. Similarly, Sound also follows the law of refraction.

  • It is due to the change of speed of water in different mediums, This makes it speed up or down depending upon the medium and their densities.

The sensitivity of a measuring instrument is the value of the smallest quantity that can be read or estimated with it. What is t
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The smallest part of a millimeter that can be read with a digital caliper with a four digit display is 0.02mm. Thus, it has to be converted to centimetre. So, divide by 10, we then have 0.02/10= *0.002cm* not mm.

Brainly the unit of current in which 6,240,000,000,000,000,000 electrons flow past a given point in a circuit in one second is t
BigorU [14]
In electronics, the SI unit for current is Ampere. It is the amount of charge in Coulombs per unit time. It is named after the father of electrodynamics, Andre-Marie Ampere. Also, the current can be easily determined through the Ohm's Law, which states that current is equal to volts divided by the resistance. The answer is letter D.

The amplitude of a paricular wave is 4.0 m. The crest to trough distance
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The crest to trough distance = 8 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The amplitude of a particular wave is 4.0 m.

We need to find the crest to trough distance.

We know that,

Amplitude = The distance from the base line to the crest or the the distance from the baseline to the trough.

It means,

Distance from crest to trough = 2(Amplitude)

= 2(4)

= 8 m

Hence, the crest to trough distance is equal to 8 m.

What is the main determining factor in defining boundaries between layers of earth's atmosphere?
konstantin123 [22]
The main determining factor in defining boundaries between layers of earth's atmosphere would be temperature changes in these layers. Temperature is one essential property that varies in the atmosphere. Based from this variation, the atmosphere is divided into four major layers and further to three smaller layers -  troposphere, tropopause, the stratosphere,  stratopause, the mesosphere, mesopause, and the thermosphere.The troposphere is the layer that is nearest to the surface of the Earth. It is the part where humans, plants and animals survive. Also, it is the warmest layer of the atmosphere. And as we go higher the atmosphere, the temperature would drop making it much cooler.
