The speed of sound is not constant in all materials. speed of sound is determined by elasticity,density, and temperature. S<span>ound  does travel faster in solids than in water and air. 
Vaccum is an empty space through which sound cannot travel through. This is because sound is basically vibrating properties and in a vacuum there are no properties.</span>

 -speed of sound is not constant in all materials. speed of sound is determined by elasticity,density, and temperature. Sound defiantly travels faster in solids than in water and air.-Vaccum is an empty space and sound cannot travel through it. This is cuz sound is basically vibrating properties and in a vacuum there has  no properties.

A floating leaf oscillates up and down two complete cycles in one second as a water wave passes by. The wave's wavelength is 10
postnew [5]

Answer:

C) 20 m/s

Explanation:

Wave: A wave is a disturbance that travels through a medium and transfers energy from one point to another, without causing any permanent displacement of the medium itself. Examples of wave are, water wave, sound wave, light rays, radio waves. etc.

The velocity of a moving wave is

v = λf ............................ Equation 1

Where v = speed of the wave, λ = wave length, f = frequency of the wave.

Given: f = 2 Hz (two complete cycles in one seconds), λ = 10 meters

Substituting these values into equation 1

v = 2×10

v = 20 m/s.

Thus the speed of the wave = 20 m/s

The right option is C) 20 m/s

A screw incorporates which other simple machine?
Radda [10]

Answer:

Inclined plane.

Explanation:

Geometrically, a screw is a narrow inclined plane that is wrapped around a cylinder. Like the other simple machines a screw can amplify force; a small rotational force (torque) on the shaft can exert a large axial force on a load.

A screw is a cylinder with a head (solid top) at one end and a pointed tip (like a nail) at the other end.

The mechanical advantage of the screw depends on the space between the threads and the length (and thickness) of the screw. The closer the threads are, the greater the mechanical advantage. It is easier to drive a screw into an object if the thread spacing is smaller.
