Why does sound propagate faster in solid bodies than in liquids and faster in liquids than in air?

Physics
1 answer:
storchak [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

this is because particles in solids are packed very closely together, thus , the particles collide with each other frequently and thus transfer of energy is faster. however, particles in liquid are closely packed but not as close as in solid so the particles do not collide as frequently. thus, transfer of energy slower than in solid. furthermore, the particles in gas are spaced far apart from each other, thus the particles don't collide with each other frequently, thus transfer of energy is very slow in gas.

hope you get it,

How is wind generated?
just olya [345]

Answer:

Explanation:

Wind is caused by the uneven heating of the atmosphere by the sun, variations in the earth's surface, and rotation of the earth. ... Wind turbines convert the energy in wind to electricity by rotating propeller-like blades around a rotor. The rotor turns the drive shaft, which turns an electric generator

Which of the following is the most likely end for a star that formed from a very small nebular cloud? . . Black hole . . Planeta
vekshin1
The answer for this question would be Planetary Nebula.

Black holes are created when the star core has a mass of more than 2.5 times of the Sun. In Supernova, fo<span>r stars with mass of more than 8 times the mass of the Sun, death is signalled by a gigantic explosion: during the first second it can be as bright as a whole galaxy with hundreds of billions of stars. In Red Giants, it is </span>due to explosion of average stars like the Sun. Lastly, in Planetary Nebula, f<span>or small stars (that is less than 8 times the mass of the Sun), at the end of the Red Giant phase, the star can’t contract enough to generate the temperatures needed for further nuclear fusion.</span>

A 10 kg box accelerates for at a rate of 12 miles per second what is the force acting on the box
lions [1.4K]

193080N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the box = 10kg

Acceleration = 12miles per second

Unknown:

Force on the box = ?

Solution:

The force acting on the box is function of the mass and acceleration of the box.

  Force = mass x acceleration

   Now we need to convert the given acceleration to m/s

     1000m = 1km

      1.609km = 1miles

    \frac{12 miles }{seconds } x \frac{1.609km}{1miles} x \frac{1000}{1km}

      = 19308m/s

 Force on box = 10 x 19308 = 193080N
