Answer:

Explanation: Sound is a mechanical wave that results from the back and forth vibration of the particles of the medium through which the sound wave is moving. The movement of the particles is parallel (and anti-parallel) to the direction of the energy transport. This is what describes/shows sound waves in air as (related to studying things over a long time) waves.

Hope this helps

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

1.The Sun is located at one of the foci of the planets' elliptical orbits.

2.The path of the planets around the Sun is elliptical in shape.

Explanation:

As per Kepler's law of planet motion we know that all planets revolve around the sun in elliptical path in such a way that position of Sun must be at one of the focii of the path

So all planets are in elliptical path always

Position of sun is always at one of the focus

so correct answer will be

1.The Sun is located at one of the foci of the planets' elliptical orbits.

2.The path of the planets around the Sun is elliptical in shape.

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the one-dimensional equation

v_f=v_0+at where vf is the final velocity of the dog, v0 is the initial velocity of the dog, a is the acceleration of the dog, and t is the time it takesto reach that final velocity. For us:

0 = 2 + -.43t and

-2 = -.43t so

t = 4.7 seconds
