Physics

Answer:

d.  The air density increases and decreases repeatedly before returning to normal.

Explanation:

when sound wave travel in the air then the air molecules will move to and fro about their mean position due to which sound energy propagate into the medium.

Due to this propagation of sound through the medium the pressure in the medium will go increasing and decreasing in form of rarefaction and compression and given as

P = BAK sin(\omega t + kx + \phi)

so here since pressure is changing from maximum to minimum so here density of medium also changes. So correct answer will be

d.  The air density increases and decreases repeatedly before returning to normal.

D. The air density increases and decreases repeatedly before returning to normal. At rest, before the bell is rung, the density of the air is fairly undisturbed. Once the bell is rung, oscillating sound waves will cause the surrounding air to compress and expand due to the wave crests and troughs generated by the sound. This will result in a variety of destructive and constructive interference events. Eventually, the energy generated from the bell will be lost to the environment and the sound will subside as the sound waves become smaller and enough destructive interference has occurred.

Which of the following is a typical property of an ionic compound
Yanka [14]

The answer is C.

Ionic compounds are those that bring together anions and cations bonded together by ionic bonds. The electrostatic forces of the different charges are significant in the bonds that make them strong hence require high energy to break them (high melting point).  Due to the regular structure of ionic compound that tend to form lattices in solid form, when struck, they shatter along the lines of weakness of the lattice.

A ball is thrown into the air with a vertical velocity of 50 m/s and a horizontal
daser333 [38]

\mathfrak{\huge{\pink{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Projectile Motion.

Since, here given that, vertical velocity= 50m/s

we know that u*sin(theta) = vertical velocity

so the time taken to reach the maximum height or the time of Ascent is equal to

T = Usin(theta) ÷ g, here g = 9.8 m/s^2

so we get as,

T = 50/9.8

T = 5.10 seconds

thus the time taken to reach max height is 5.10 seconds.

For a star with a parallax angle of 1/2 of an at arcsecond, what will be its distance in parsec?
avanturin [10]

(1 parsec) is the distance at which an object has a parallax of 1 arcsecond. The distance is about 3.26 light years.

Another way to understand it is:  The distance from which the Earth's orbit appears 1 arcsecond across.

For a parallax angle of 1/2 arcsecond, the distance is <em>2 parsecs </em>(about 6.52 light years).

1 arcsecond is 1/3600 of a degree, 0.00028 degree.
