Why do sound waves move faster through the ground than through the air?

Physics
1 answer:
lana [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: The answer is option A.

Explanation:  Particles of matter are packed more loosely in the ground than in the air. This is true because it doesn't have thig like buildings and people stopping the sound waves.

Potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy, a good example of this is when a pole-vaulter bends the pole during a lea
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The pole stores elastic potential energy when the pole is bent because its shape is change from its natural shape and it will want to go back to its original form, just like a spring or stretched elastic material.

The current through a 10 ohm resistor is 1.2 amperes.What is the potential difference across the resistor?
Natalija [7]

<u>Answer</u>: The potential difference across the resistor is 12 volts.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the potential difference cross the resistor, we use Ohm's Law. This law states that the potential difference across two wires is directly proportional to the current flowing through that wire.

Mathematically,

V\propto I\\V=IR

Where,

V = potential difference = ?V

I = Current flowing = 1.2 A

R = Resistor = 10\Omega

Putting values in above equation, we get:

V=1.2\times 10=12V

Hence, the potential difference across the resistor is 12 volts

In science, Bob learns that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the waves amplitude. If the energy of
KIM [24]
The energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the waves amplitude. Therefore, E = A² where A is the amplitude. This therefore means when the amplitude of a wave is doubled the energy will be quadrupled, when the amplitude is tripled the energy increases by a nine fold and so on.
Thus, in this case if the energy is 4J, then the amplitude will be  √4 = 2 .

A toy train is pushed forward and released at Xi = 4.0 m with a speed of 2.5 m/s. It rolls at a steady speed for 2.0 s, then one
Fittoniya [83]
I don't think that 4m has anything to do with the problem. anyway. here. A___________________B_______C where A is the point that the train was released. B is where the wheel started to stick C is where it stopped From A to B, v=2.5m/s, it takes 2s to go A to B so t=2 AB= v*t = 2.5 * 2 = 5m The train comes to a stop 7.7 m from the point at which it was released so AC=7.7m then BC= AC-AB = 7.7-5 = 2.7m now consider BC v^2=u^2+2as where u is initial speed, in this case is 2.5m/s v is final speed, train stop at C so final speed=0, so v=0 a is acceleration s is displacement, which is BC=2.7m substitute all the number into equation, we have 0^2 = 2.5^2 + 2*a*2.7 0 = 6.25 + 5.4a a = -6.25/5.4 = -1.157 so acceleration is -1.157m/(s^2)
