Answer:

24 cm/s

Explanation:

Applying

Pythagoras theorem,

a² = b²+c²............. Equation 1

Where a = resultant, b = vertical component, c = horizontal component

From the question,

Given: a = 26 cm/s, c = 10 cm/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

26² = b²+10²

676 = b²+100

b² = 676-100

b² = 576

b = √576

b = 24 cm/s

3- (a) What is the period of rotation of Earth in seconds? (b) What is the angular velocity of Earth? (c) Given that Earth has a
ASHA 777 [7]

Explanation:

a) The Earth makes 1 rotation in 24 hours.  In seconds:

24 hr × (3600 s / hr) = 86400 s

b) 1 rotation is 2π radians.  So the angular velocity is:

2π rad / 86400 s = 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s

c) The earth's linear velocity is the angular velocity times the radius:

40075 km × 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s = 2.91 km/s

Which part of the ear receives the signal from the eardrum?​
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Ossicles

Explanation:

Sound causes eardrums to vibrate. These vibrations are then passed on to the ossicles, which is made up of 3 small bones-- the malleus, incus, and stapes. The stapes are connected to the inner ear, specifically to the cochlea which transforms sound waves into electrical signals that are sent to the brain.

How can you increase the intensity of sound waves
VladimirAG [237]

Answer

The intensity of a sound wave depends on the pressure of the wave,density of the medium and speed of sound in the medium. Higher density and higher sound speed both give a lower intensity. and may be it is because that sound wave is more characterize by wavelength than frequency..explanation

Explanation:

As decibel levels get higher, sound waves have greater intensity and sounds are louder. For every 10-decibel increase in the intensity of sound, loudness is 10 times greater. Intensity of sound results from two factors: the amplitude of the sound waves and how far they have traveled from the source of the sound.
