Geneva says that the only thing that is needed for people to hear the sounds around us is a vibrating object

Sample Response: No, I do not agree with her. In order for sounds to be heard, the sound wave produced by a vibrating object needs to travel from the vibrating object to the ear through a medium.

She is false. The sound waves also needs a medium to travel through, such as air

A 27.0-m steel wire and a 48.0-m copper wire are attached end to end and stretched to a tension of 145 N. Both wires have a radi
algol13

Answer:

The time taken by the wave to travel  along the combination of two wires is 458 ms.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of steel wire= 27.0 m

Length of copper wire = 48.0 m

Tension = 145 N

Radius of both wires = 0.450 mm

Density of steel wire \rho_{s}= 7.86\times10^{3}\ kg/m^{3}

Density of copper wire \rho_{c}=8.92\times10^{3}\ kg/m^3

We need to calculate the linear density of steel wire

Using formula of linear density

\mu_{s}=\rho_{s}A

\mu_{s}=\rho_{s}\times\pi r^2

Put the value into the formula

\mu_{s}=7.86\times10^{3}\times\pi\times(0.450\times10^{-3})^2

\mu_{s}=5.00\times10^{-3}\ kg/m

We need to calculate the linear density of copper wire

Using formula of linear density

\mu_{c}=\rho_{s}A

\mu_{c}=\rho_{s}\times\pi r^2

Put the value into the formula

\mu_{c}=8.92\times10^{3}\times\pi\times(0.450\times10^{-3})^2

\mu_{c}=5.67\times10^{-3}\ kg/m

We need to calculate the velocity of the wave along the steel wire

Using formula of velocity

v_{s}=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_{s}}}

v_{s}=\sqrt{\dfrac{145}{5.00\times10^{-3}}}

v_{s}=170.3\ m/s

We need to calculate the velocity of the wave along the steel wire

Using formula of velocity

v_{c}=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_{c}}}

v_{c}=\sqrt{\dfrac{145}{5.67\times10^{-3}}}

v_{c}=159.9\ m/s

We need to calculate the time taken by the wave to travel  along the combination of two wires

t=t_{s}+t_{c}

t=\dfrac{l_{s}}{v_{s}}+\dfrac{l_{c}}{v_{c}}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{27.0}{170.3}+\dfrac{48.0}{159.9}

t=0.458\ sec

t=458\ ms

Hence, The time taken by the wave to travel  along the combination of two wires is 458 ms.

Why are there zero hours of daylight at the north pole and south pole in the winter
raketka [301]

Answer:

The seasons are caused by the tilt of Earth's axis in relation to the sun. ... During summer, Antarctica is on the side of Earth tilted toward the sun and is in constant sunlight. In the winter, Antarctica is on the side of Earth tilted away from the sun, causing the continent to be dark.

The amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a material one degree is
charle [14.2K]
The amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a material to one degree is called D. its heat capacity.

The relationship of the heat when applied to the object and the change in temperature of the object when heat is being applied is directly proportional to each other. This means that when heat is applied to the object, the temperature of the object increases and when heat is not applied to the object, the temperature of the object decreases.

A student pushes on a crate with a force of 100 Newtons directed to the right.
romanna [79]

Answer:

100N

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Therefore 100N of force is exerted by the crate on student as a reaction to his action
