Sound is a mechanical wave; therefore, it __________.

2 answers:

8 0

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.

What is know as law of inertia?

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

mark me brianliest plz

Explanation:

Law of inertia, also called Newton's first law, postulate in physics that, if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.
Law of Inertia states that a body in a state of rest or uniform motion remains in the same state until and unless an external force acts on it.
A body continues to be in its state of rest or in uniform motion along a straight line unless an external force is applied on it. This law is also called law of inertia.

Changes in behavior of managers, coworkers, and subordinates can be a warning sign before a layoff. True or false

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is - true.

Explanation:

Changes in the higher authorities or managers or coworkers can be a warning sign before a layoff, however, a company or organization needs to give an official notice before a particular time period before the layoff.

The layoff is a temporary suspension or permanent termination from the employment of an employee due to reasons related to business such as reducing manpower or staff and less work in the organization. These reasons can lead to a change in the behavior of the managers, coworkers, and subordinates.

A block is resting on a platform that is rotating at an angular speed of 2.4 rad/s. The coefficient of static friction between t

Sloan [31]

Answer:

r = 0m is the Minimum distance from the axis at which the block can remain in place wothout skidding.

Explanation:

From a sum of forces:

$Ff = m*a$ where Ff = μ * N and $a = \frac{V^2}{r}=\omega^2*r$

N - m*g = 0 So, N = m*g. Replacing everything on the original equation:

$\mu*m*g = m*\omega^2*r$ (eq2)

Solving for r:

$r = \frac{\mu*g}{\omega^2}=1.41m$

If we analyze eq2 you can conclude that as r grows, the friction has to grow (assuming that ω is constant), so the smallest distance would be 0 and the greatest 1.41m. Beyond that distance, μ has to be greater than 0.83.
