Sound cannot travel through a vacuum. Explain why.

Physics

3 0

Answer:

A vacuum is an area without any air, like space. So sound cannot travel through space because there is no matter for the vibrations to work on it.

Explain how a current is induced in the wire?
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

If a coil of wire is placed in a changing magnetic field, a current will be induced in the wire. This current flows because something is producing an electric field that forces the charges around the wire. (It cannot be the magnetic force since the charges are not initially moving). ... that determines the induced current.

Two water jets are emerging from a vessel at a height of 50 centimeters and 100 centimeters. If their horizontal velocities at t
givi [52]
For t1:

t1 = square root of 2h1 / g = square root of 2 * 0.5 / 9.8 = 0.319 sec

For t2:

t2 = sqaure root of 2h2 / g = square root of 2 * 1.0 / 9.8 = 0.451 sec

Wherein:
t = time(s) for the vertical movement
h= height
g = gravity (using the standard 9.8 m/sec measurement)

d1 = 1*0.319 = 0.319 m
d2 = 0.5 * 0.451 = 0.225 m

Where:

d = hor. distance

ratio = d1:d2
= 0.319 : 0.225
=3.19 : 2.25

The answer is 3.19 : 2.25

As you move farther away from a source emitting a pure tone, the ___________ of the sound you hear decreases.
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

frequency

Explanation:

The phenomenon of apparent change in frequency due to the relation motion between the source and the observer is called Doppler's effect.

So, when we move farther, the frequency of sound decreases. The formula of the Doppler's effect is  

f' = \frac{v + v_o}{v+ v_s} f

where, v is the velocity of sound, vs is the velocity of source and vo is the velocity of observer, f is the true frequency. f' is the apparent frequency.
