Answer:

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

Explanation:

As different mediums have different amount and size of particles, for example, the speed of sound is faster through solid than liquid as solids have closely packed particles whereas liquids are loosely packed.

A 12,000-N car is raised using a hydraulic lift, which consists of a U-tube with arms of unequal areas, filled with oil and capp

Bond [772]

Answer:

= 925.92 N

≅ 926N

Explanation:

Pressure due to car = pressure due to applied force

12000/18^2 = Force / 5^2

force = 12000 * 25/ 324

= 925.92 N

For equilibrium

Pressure1 = Pressure2

A1F1 = A2F2

12000*pi*(5^2) = F2 ( pi)*(18^2)

so, F2 = Applied force to lift car = 925.92 N

Pascal's principle

Pressure1 = Pressure2

F1/A1 = F2/A2 (F=force and A=area)

A1 =Pi*(0.05)²

A2 =Pi(0.18)²

F2=12000

F1 = 12000*(0.05)² / (0.18)² = 926N

3. A lady walks 15.0 meters east and then 20.0 meters north.

NemiM [27]

Answer:

a. 25m

b. 25m

c. 35m

Explanation:

Given the distances walked as 15m east and 20m north:

Using Pythagoras Theorem, we calculate displacement as:

$a^2+b^2=c2, a=15,b=-20\\\\15^2+20^2=c^2\\\\c=\sqrt{15^2+20^2}=\sqrt{625}\\\\c=25m$

Hence, the resultant displacement is 25m

b. The distance from her start point is obtained by drawing a straight line from her final point to her initial point.

Given the distances walked as 15m east and 20m north:

Using Pythagoras Theorem, we calculate displacement as:

$a^2+b^2=c2, a=15,b=-20\\\\15^2+20^2=c^2\\\\c=\sqrt{15^2+20^2}=\sqrt{625}\\\\c=25m$

Hence, she is 25m away from her starting point.

c. The distance traveled is calculated by summing the total distance walked:

$d=d_1+d_2\\\\=15+20\\\\=35m$

Hence, the total distance traveled is 35m
