How does diffraction enable somebody to hear your voice from anywhere in the room?

Physics

Vilka [71]3 years ago

Diffraction means spreading out of waves that has the same wavelength as the size of the gap. Sound waves have high wavelength and so it diffracts\spreads out and enables anyone to hear your voice from anywhere outside the room.

For inside the room, the sound waves doesn't actually diffract. They collide with the air particles, causing a series of compressions and rarefactions which spreads out in the air particles and anyone can hear your voice.

Air is the medium for the sound waves to travel.

Among the alkali earth metals, the tendency to react with other substances
padilas [110]
Answer D
In alkali earth metals reacrivity increases from top to bottom (opposite of b)
This is because as you go down, the electron shells increase by 1 shell. The farther away a shell is from the nucleus, the higher its tendency to react.
D is true because the more reactive an alkali metal is, the more vigorous the reaction will be with water.

. A 13-g goldfinch has a speed of 8.5 m/s. What is its kinetic energy?
lesya692 [45]
PLEASE PRESS THE “Thanks!” BUTTON! :)
13 g —> 0.013 kg
KE = 1/2(m)(v)^2
KE = 1/2(0.013)(8.5)^2
KE = 0.47 J
