Answer:Reflection

Explanation:

The throwing back of a sound wave without absorbing it is called reflection

In acoustic reflection of sound is termed as echo i.e. sound arrived at the listener after a particular delay depending upon the position of barrier to the observer.

The reflection of sound is used in many devices like megaphone, trumpets, etc. It is also used in auditorium such that the ceiling of the auditorium is curved for multiple reflections of sound so that sound can be reached at every corner of the auditorium.

A ball is dropped from a rooftop 60m high. How long is the ball in the air?

alina1380 [7]

Answer: 3.49 s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equation of motion:

$y=y_{o}+V_{o}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (1)

Where:

$y=0 m$ is the final height of the ball

$y_{o}=60 m$ is the initial height of the ball

$V_{o}=0 m/s$ is the initial velocity (the ball was dropped)

$g=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleratio due gravity

$t$ is the time

Isolating $t$ :

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2 y_{o}}{g}}$ (2)

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2 (60 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}}$ (3)

Finally we find the time the ball is in the air:

$t=3.49 s$ (4)

Lee pushes horizontally with a force of 75 n on a 36 kg mass for 10 m across a floor. calculate the amount of work lee did. answ

svlad2 [7]

To find work, you use the equation: W = Force X Distance X Cos (0 degrees)
Following the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy cannot be destroyed nor created.

So you would do 75 N x 10m x Cos (0 degrees)= 750 J

Which region of the early universe was most likely to become a galaxy?

kramer

Answer:

This is likely possible for a region whose matter density is higher than the normal average.

Explanation:

A galaxy is a collection of lumps in space which are clumped together and interact with each other. There are a lot of speculations on how galaxies were birthed. some believe its formed by a collection of massive gas, dust which eventually collapsed under their own gravitational pull. others says its formed by the combination of large lumps of matter which accumulated forming thee galaxies. The possibility of a galaxy forming is dependent on how massive the matter in the region of the universe is.
