What happens when a sound wave passes from water to air?

Sound travells much faster in water than in air.

The wave is both reflected and tranmitted. Some goes into the water..and goes FASTER and some bounces back.

It slows down. The molecules/particles aren't as close together, resulting in slower movement.

Charge flows from low potential to high potential.<br> O True<br> or<br> O False
inn [45]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Think of the electric potential in terms of potential energy. If you imagine a place with high elevation (A) and another one at sea level (B), a ball will roll from high potential to low potential (A-->B).

Everything in our universe wants to reach a lower state of energy if no external force is acted upon it. Every object tends to slow down (friction), a radioactive element dissipates energy (an unstable element releases energy to get to a stable state), water in the clouds comes down to the ground (rain experiencing difference in potential energy).

Electric potential is exactly the same, you just can't see it! It flows from higher voltage (which is a synonym for electric potential) to lower voltage.

A ball of mass 0.120 kg is dropped from rest from a height of 1.25 m. It rebounds from the floor to reach a height of 0.600 m. W
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
Before we find impulse, we need to find the initial and final momentum of the ball.

To find the momentum of the ball before it hit the floor, we need to figure out its final velocity using kinematics.

Values we know:
acceleration(a) - 9.81m/s^2 [down]
initial velocity(vi) - 0m/s
distance(d) - 1.25m [down]

This equation can be used to find final velocity:

Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2ad

Vf^2 = (0)^2 + (2)(-9.81)(-1.25)

Vf^2 = 24.525

Vf = 4.95m/s [down]

Now we need to find the velocity the ball leaves the floor at using the same kinematics concept.

What we know:
a = 9.81m/s^2 [down]
d = 0.600m [up]
vf = 0m/s

Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2ad

0^2 = Vi^2 + 2(-9.81)(0.6)

0 = Vi^2 + -11.772

Vi^2 = 11.772

Vi = 3.43m/s [up]

Now to find impulse given to the ball by the floor we find the change in momentum.

Impulse = Momentum final - momentum initial

Impulse = (0.120)(3.43) - (0.120)(-4.95)

Impulse = 1.01kgm/s [up]

A motorboat traveling from one shore to the other at a rate of 5m/s east encounters a current flowing at a rate of 3.5m/s north
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Resultant velocity will be equal to 6.10 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given a motorbike is traveling with 5 m/sec in east

And a current is flowing at a rate of 3.5 m /sec in north

We know that east and north is perpendicular to each other

So resultant velocity will be vector sum of both velocity

So resultant velocity v=\sqrt{5^2+3.5^2}=6.10m/sec

So resultant velocity will be equal to 6.10 m/sec

How does the buoyant force affect a submerged object
NeX [460]

Answer:

The buoyant force is the pressure of the object being forced upward.  

<em>Weight of the object affects the buoyant force</em> of the submerged object; as weight is added to the object, it will cause the object to sink.  The more weight...the more it will sink.

If the weight is less than the buoyant force, it will cause the object to go up.

If the weight is the same as the buoyant force, the object will stay in the same position.
