A sound wave traveling downward with a speed of about 4000 m per 2nd suddenly slows to 1500 m per 2nd not far below the Earth's

surface what has the sound wave most likely encountered
Physics

Answer: the waves probably hits an open cavity

Explanation:

Sound waves transfers energy in form of vibration through water,the speed of sound is greatest in solids followed by liquids and gases,for we to observe such a reduction from 4000m/s to 1500m/s that means it sound had been transmitted through air like open cavity seen in intrusive rock beneath the earth.

Options:

a) A different kind of rock

b) An underground lake

c) An open cavity

d) A pile of dinosaur bones

Answer:

Option B. An underground lake

Explanation:

The speed of sound in water ranges from 1450 m/s to 1500 m/s. The speed of the sound wave changes because it has crosses two media of different densities. This wave is bound to have a change in direction because of change in the density and speed of the media it passes.

The 1500 m/s speed in the second medium shows that the medium is a pool of water. The only option that applies is an underground lake

Physical anthropology studies the human body. This discipline is aimed at analyzing the evolution and diversity of human beings.

<h3>What is physical anthropology?</h3>

Physical anthropology is a branch of anthropology that studies the evolution and diversity of human beings.

Physical anthropology is also called biological anthropology due to its close relation with biological sciences.

This branch of anthropology (physical anthropology) is aimed at assessing the evolution and physical variation and/or behaviors of human beings.

Several different compounds can share the same empirical formula. The Molecular weight for three compounds with the empirical fo
Pie

Molecular formulas:

  1. CH₂O;
  2. C₂H₄O₂;
  3. C₆H₁₂O₆.
<h3>Explanation</h3>

The empirical formula of a compound tells only the ratio between atoms of each element. The empirical formula CH₂O indicates that in this compound,

  • for each C atom, there are
  • two H atoms, and
  • one O atom.

The molecular weight (molar mass) of the molecule depends on how many such sets of atoms in each molecule. The empirical formula doesn't tell anything about that number.

It's possible to <em>add</em> more of those sets of atoms to a molecular formula to increase its molar mass. For every extra set of those atoms added, the molar mass increase by the mass of that set of atoms. The mass of one mole of C atoms, two mole of H atoms, and one mole of O atoms is 12.0 + 2\times 1.0 + 16.0 = 30.0\;\text{g}.

  • CH₂O- 30.0 g/mol;
  • C₂H₄O₂- 30.0 + 30.0 = 2 × 30.0 = 60.0 g/mol;
  • C₃H₆O₃- 30.0 + 30.0 + 30.0 = 3 × 30.0 = 90.0 g/mol.

It takes one set of those atoms to achieve a molar mass of 30.0 g/mol. Hence the molecular formula CH₂O.

It takes two sets of those atoms to achieve a molar mass of 60.0 g/mol. Hence the molecular formula C₂H₄O₂.

It takes \dfrac{180.0}{30.0} = 6 sets of those atoms to achieve a molar mass of 180.0 g/mol. Hence the molecular formula C₆H₁₂O₆.

Part CPart complete Determine the maximum force P that can be applied without causing the two 43-kg crates to move. The coeffici
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

the maximum force will be equal to 134.84 N  

Explanation:

We have given mass m = 43 kg

Coefficient of static friction \mu _s=0.32

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m.sec^2

We have to find the maximum force which , when applied there is no movement of crates

This maximum force will be equal to frictional force

Frictional force is given by f=\mu mg=0.32\times 43\times 9.8=134.84N

So the maximum force will be equal to 134.84 N
