Answer:
A) Propagation of pressure fluctuations in a medium
B) air is the medium in which the wave is transported,
Explanation:
Part A.
A sound wave is a longitudinal oscillation of the molecules that forms in a material medium, they can be solid, liquid or gases, therefore the wave propagates in the same direction as the oscillation of the particles.
The most correct answer is:
* Propagation of pressure fluctuations in a medium
Part b
air is the medium in which the wave is transported, otherwise it cannot propagate
Meters ?? or just a variable
Answer: The drag force goes up by a factor of 4
Explanation:
The <u>Drag Force</u> equation is:
(1)
Where:
is the Drag Force
is the Drag coefficient, which depends on the material
is the density of the fluid where the bicycle is moving (<u>air in this case)
</u>
is the transversal area of the body or object
the bicycle's velocity
Now, if we assume
,
and
do not change, we can rewrite (1) as:
(2)
Where
groups all these coefficients.
So, if we have a new velocity
, which is the double of the former velocity:
(3)
Equation (2) is written as:
(4)
Comparing (2) and (4) we can conclude<u> the Drag force is four times greater when the speed is doubled.</u>
An element is a pure substance that cant be broken down into simpler substances by chemical or physical means. hope it helps :)
