Sound is a mechanical wave; therefore, it __________.

Physics
2 answers:
avanturin [10]3 years ago

A mechanical wave such as sound needs a medium to travel through. This is why they say that in space, no one can hear you scream (because space is a vacuum and no medium exists). On the contrary, light can exist in wave or particle form. This is why we have the ability to see beyond the realms of the Earth.

Answer:

The answer is A. Must travel trought a medium.

Explanation:

The transmission of sound depends on the existence of a material medium (solid, liquid, air particles) where the vibration of the molecules are perceived as a sound wave, which are converted into mechanical waves in the human ear, to be later perceived by the brain.

According to the relationship between torque and angular acceleration, what happens when you have more torque (given a constant
gogolik [260]

Answer:

The angular acceleration increases.

Explanation:

The relationship between the torque and angular acceleration is :

\tau=I\times \alpha

Where

I is the moment of inertia

\alpha is the angular acceleration

We can see that the torque is directly proportional to the angular acceleration. So, when we have more torque it means angular acceleration increases. Hence, the correct option is (A).

You need to remove a broken light bulb from a lamp. without a pair of gloves, you are likely to cut yourself on the jagged glass
mojhsa [17]
<span>You have just demonstrated an insight learning. Internal insight occurs if one learned a new way without the help of environmental factors. In here, what the person initially learned that if one saw a broken light bulb from a lamp, he can be cut through the jagged glass if one does not wear a pair of gloves. And maybe because at the moment, the person could not find one, he felt using a cut potato to pick up the pieces of the broken lamp. This is a demonstration of insight learning. The person found a way to pick up the pieces of the broken lamp by using his instinct at the moment. The person is not influenced by an outside source to tell him to use a potato. </span>
