5 0

Answer:

The type of medium affects a sound wave as sound travels with the help of the vibration in particles.

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

101 meters

Explanation:

Distance traveled by the tourist:

d = 3.60 m/s × t

Distance traveled by the bear:

d + 39.3 m = 5.00 m/s × t

Substitute:

3.6 t + 39.3 = 5 t

39.3 = 1.4 t

t = 28.1

d = 101

Which errors might occur when measuring length of object​
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Generally errors are classified into three types: systematic errors, random errors and blunders. Gross errors are caused by mistake in using instruments or meters, calculating measurement and recording data results.Measurement Error (also called Observational Error) is the difference between a measured quantity and its true value. It includes random error (naturally occurring errors that are to be expected with any experiment) and systematic error (caused by a mis-calibrated instrument that affects all measurements).

What is the half-life of this radioactive isotope that decreases to one-fourth its original amount in 18 months?
o-na [289]
The half-life of this radioactive isotope is 9 months for it decreases to one-fourth its original amount in 18 months. Half-life means a certain length of time after which half of the amount of radioactive element has decayed.
Therefore, the half-life of this particular isotope is 18 months. After 18 months the isotope was at one-half, then another 18 months, the isotope was at one-fourth, which is 9 months where one-fourth is one-half of one half.
