Answer:

greater

Explanation:

the speed of sound in steel is greater than water. the speed of sound in wood is not, In water, the particles are much closer together, and they can quickly transmit vibration energy from one particle to the next. This means that the sound wave travels over four times faster than it would in air, but it takes a lot of energy to start the vibration.

Wood is less dense and force can make a sound.

The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9. 8 m/s2. What is the weight of a 75 kg person on Earth? 9. 8 N 75 N 85 N 735 N.

Illusion [34]

The weight of a 75 kg person on Earth, which has an acceleration due to gravity of 9.8m/s², is 735N.

CALCULATE WEIGHT:

Weight is a force, hence, measured in Newton. It is a function of an object's mass in relation to gravity.

Weight of an object can be calculated using the following formula:

W = mg

Where;

W = weight (N)
m = mass (kg)
g = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)

The weight of the person in this question can be calculated as follows:

W = 75 × 9.8

W = 735N

Therefore, the weight of a 75 kg person on Earth, which has an acceleration due to gravity of 9.8m/s², is 735N.

Consider Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation: FG= G (m1 m2)/d2 .

bixtya [17]

Answer:

Mass is directly proportional to the Force of Gravity. If Mass increases, then the Force of Gravity increases; however, Distance is indirectly (or inversely) proportional to the Force of Gravity. If Distance increases, then the Force of Gravity decreases.

Explanation:

The formula for the force of gravity between two objects is

$F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{d^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

d is the separation between the two objects

We notice the following:

- F is directly proportional to the masses, $F\propto m_1, m_2$ . This means that if one of the masses increases, then the force between them, F, increases in a proportional way

- F is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, $F\propto \frac{1}{d^2}$ . This means that if the distance between the two objects is increased, the force between them will decrease, and vice-versa.

So, the correct answer is

Dinosaurs’ skeletons can be distinguished from those of other reptiles by the structure of the hips and legs.

jeyben [28]

True, they had a hole in their hip socket that allowed them to run faster than other reptiles of their size at the time. As well as most reptiles besides reptiles had legs to the side, rather than under them like dinosaurs did.

Hope this helps!
