Sound needs medium to travel and it can not travel without medium

so sound wave is a travelling wave

now we also know that sound wave propagate in form of rarefaction and compression.

So all medium particles travel in the direction of wave only

so it is a longitudinal wave also

so correct answer will be

<em>mechanical longitudinal </em>

Pls help A car starts from rest and gains a velocity of 20m/s in 10 seconds calculate its acceleration and the distance covered

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Acceleration \ (a) = 2 \ m/s^{2}}$

$\boxed{\sf Distance \ covered \ (s) = 100 \ m}$

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 20 m/s

Time taken (t) = 10 sec

To Find:

(i) Acceleration (a)

(ii) Distance covered (s)

Explanation:

$\sf (i) \ From \ 1^{st} \ equation \ of \ motion:$

$\sf \implies v = u + at$

$\sf \implies 20 = 0 + a(10)$

$\sf \implies 10a = 20$

$\sf \implies \frac{10a}{10} = \frac{20}{10}$

$\sf \implies a = 2 \: m/ {s}^{2}$

$\sf (ii) \ From \ 2^{nd} \ equation \ of \ motion:$

$\sf \implies s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}$

$\sf \implies s = (0)(10) + \frac{1}{2} \times 2 \times {(10)}^{2}$

$\sf \implies s = \frac{1}{ \cancel{2}} \times \cancel{2} \times {(10)}^{2}$

$\sf \implies s = {10}^{2}$

$\sf \implies s = 100 \: m$

A 2.0 kg sphere with a velocity of 6.0 m/s collides head-on and elastically with a stationary 10 kg sphere

dmitriy555 [2]

Question: A 2.0 kg sphere with a velocity of 6.0 m/s collides head-on and elastically with a stationary 10 kg sphere, What is thier velocities after collision.

Answer:

v = 6 m/s, v' = 0 m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

For Elastic collision,

mu+m'u' = mv+m'v'......................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the first sphere, m' = mass of the second sphere, u = initial velocity of the first sphere, u' = initial velocity of the second sphere, v = final veolocity of the first sphere, v' = final velocity of the second sphere.

Also,

The relative velocity before collision = relative velocity after collision

u-u' = v-v'............................ Equation 2

Given: m = 2 kg, m' = 10 kg, u = 6 m/s, u' = 0 m/s

Substitute into equation 1 and 2

2(6)+10(0) = 2v+10v'

2v+10v' = 12.............. Equation 3

6-0 = v-v'

v-v' = 6 ................... Equation 4

Solve equation 3 and 4 simultaneously.

v = 6+v'............. Equation 5

Substitute equation 5 into equation 3

2(6+v')+10v' = 12

12+2v'+10v' = 12

12v' = 12-12

v' = 0/12

v' = 0 m/s.

Also substitute the value of v' into equation 5

v = 6+0

v = 6 m/s

Fill in the blanks for the following:

storchak [24]

Answer:

<em>a. 4.21 moles</em>

<em>b. 478.6 m/s</em>

<em>c. 1.5 times the root mean square velocity of the nitrogen gas outside the tank</em>

Explanation:

Volume of container = 100.0 L

Temperature = 293 K

pressure = 1 atm = 1.01325 bar

number of moles n = ?

using the gas equation PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

R = 0.08206 L-atm- $mol^{-1}$ $K^{-1}$

Therefore,

n = (1.01325 x 100)/(0.08206 x 293)

n = 101.325/24.04 = <em>4.21 moles</em>

The equation for root mean square velocity is

Vrms = $\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M} }$

R = 8.314 J/mol-K

where M is the molar mass of oxygen gas = 31.9 g/mol = 0.0319 kg/mol

Vrms = $\sqrt{\frac{3*8.314*293}{0.0319} }$ = <em>478.6 m/s</em>

<em>For Nitrogen in thermal equilibrium with the oxygen, the root mean square velocity of the nitrogen will be proportional to the root mean square velocity of the oxygen by the relationship</em>

$\frac{Voxy}{Vnit}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{Mnit}{Moxy} }$

where

Voxy = root mean square velocity of oxygen = 478.6 m/s

Vnit = root mean square velocity of nitrogen = ?

Moxy = Molar mass of oxygen = 31.9 g/mol

Mnit = Molar mass of nitrogen = 14.00 g/mol

$\frac{478.6}{Vnit}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{14.0}{31.9} }$

$\frac{478.6}{Vnit}$ = 0.66

Vnit = 0.66 x 478.6 = <em>315.876 m/s</em>

<em>the root mean square velocity of the oxygen gas is </em>

<em>478.6/315.876 = 1.5 times the root mean square velocity of the nitrogen gas outside the tank</em>
