Sound waves travel faster through <em>solids</em> than they do through gases or liquids. <em>(C) </em>They don't travel through vacuum at all.
Example:
Speed of sound in normal air . . . around 340 m/s
Speed of sound in water . . . around 1,480 m/s
Speed of sound in iron . . . around 5,120 m/s
Answer:
1977.696 J
Explanation:
Given;
Weight of the box = 28.0 kg
Force applied by the boy = 230 N
angle between the horizontal and the force = 35°
Therefore,
the horizontal component of the force = 230 × cosθ
= 230 × cos 35°
= 188.405 N
Coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.24
Force by friction, f = μN
here,
N = Normal force = Mass × acceleration due to gravity
or
N = 28 × 9.81 = 274.68 N
therefore,
f = 0.24 × 274.68
or
f = 65.9232 N
Now,
work done by the boy, W₁ = 188.405 N × Displacement
= 188.405 N × 30
= 5652.15 J
and,
the
work done by the friction, W₂ = - 65.9232 N × Displacement
= - 65.9232 N × 30 m
= - 1977.696 J
[ since the friction force acts opposite to the direction of motion, therefore the workdone will be negative]
Answer:
Explanation:
The amplitude of resultant wave as the result of overlap of two waves depends upon the phase difference between the two. If the waves meet crest to trough , the phase difference is 180 degree or they are in opposite phase . Hence they will destroy each other . The amplitude of resultant wave can be obtained by subtracting the amplitudes of two waves. They will interfere destructively.
Amplitude of resultant gives waves = 4.6 - 2 = 2.6 cm.
Answer: The correct answers are (A) and (C).
Explanation:
The expression from electrostatic force is as follows;

Here, F is the electrostatic force, k is constant, r is the distance between the charges and
are the charges.
The electrostatic force follows inverse square law. It is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges. It is directly proportional to the product of the charges.
Like charges repel each other. There is a force of electrostatic repulsion between the like charges. Unlike charges attract each other. There is a force of electrostatic attraction between unlike charges.
The charges are induced on the neutral object when it is placed nearby the charged object without actually touching it.
Therefore, the true statements from the given options are as follows;
Like charges repel.
Unlike charges attract.
