what causes sounds? A. electromagnectic energy B. the release of sensory neurons C.movement that causes changes in air placement

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

D.vibrations that cause changes in air pressure

Explanation:

Sound is a type of wave.

A wave is a periodic disturbance/oscillation that trasmits energy without transmitting matter. There are two different types of waves:

- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the direction of the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. These waves are characterized by the presence of crests (points of maximum positive displacement) and troughs (points of maximum negative displacement). Examples of transverse wave are electromagnetic waves.

- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the direction of the oscillation is parallel to the direction of motion of the wave. These waves are characterized by the presence of compressions (regions where the density of particle is higher) and rarefactions (regions where the density of particle is lower). Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.

Sound waves, in particular, consist of vibrations of the particles in a medium - most commonly, air - that occur back and forth along the direction of motion of the wave. Because of these motion, the air will have areas of higher pressure (which correspond to the compressions), where the density of particles is higher, and areas of lower pressure (which correspond to the rarefactions), where density of particles is lower.

A girl stands on the edge of a merry-go-round of radius 1.71 m. If the merry go round uniformly accerlerates from rest to 20 rpm

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

$a = 0.53 m/s^2$

Explanation:

initially the merry go round is at rest

after 6.73 s the merry go round will accelerates to 20 rpm

so final angular speed is given as

$\omega = 2\pi f$

$\omega = 2\pi ( \frac{20}{60})$

$\omega = 2.10 rad/s$

so final tangential speed is given as

$v = r\omega$

$v = 1.71 (2.10) = 3.58 m/s$

now average acceleration of the girl is given as

$a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{\Delta t}$

$a = \frac{3.58 - 0}{6.73}$

$a = 0.53 m/s^2$

Continuous and aligned fiber-reinforced composite with cross-sectional area of 340 mm2 (0.53 in.2) is subjected to a longitudina

Alecsey [184]

(a) 23.4

The fiber-to-matrix load ratio is given by

$\frac{F_f}{F_m}=\frac{E_f V_f}{E_m V_m}$

where

$E_f = 131 GPa$ is the fiber elasticity module

$E_m = 2.4 GPa$ is the matrix elasticity module

$V_f=0.3$ is the fraction of volume of the fiber

$V_m=0.7$ is the fraction of volume of the matrix

Substituting,

$\frac{F_f}{F_m}=\frac{(131 GPa)(0.3)}{(2.4 GPa)(0.7)}=23.4$ (1)

(b) 44,594 N

The longitudinal load is

F = 46500 N

And it is sum of the loads carried by the fiber phase and the matrix phase:

$F=F_f + F_m$ (2)

We can rewrite (1) as

$F_m = \frac{F_f}{23.4}$

And inserting this into (2):

$F=F_f + \frac{F_f}{23.4}$

Solving the equation, we find the actual load carried by the fiber phase:

$F=F_f (1+\frac{1}{23.4})\\F_f = \frac{F}{1+\frac{1}{23.4}}=\frac{46500 N}{1+\frac{1}{23.4}}=44,594 N$

(c) 1,906 N

Since we know that the longitudinal load is the sum of the loads carried by the fiber phase and the matrix phase:

$F=F_f + F_m$ (2)

Using

F = 46500 N

$F_f = 44594 N$

We can immediately find the actual load carried by the matrix phase:

$F_m = F-F_f = 46,500 N - 44,594 N=1,906 N$

(d) 437 MPa

The cross-sectional area of the fiber phase is

$A_f = A V_f$

where

$A=340 mm^2=340\cdot 10^{-6}m^2$ is the total cross-sectional area

Substituting $V_f=0.3$ , we have

$A_f = (340\cdot 10^{-6} m^2)(0.3)=102\cdot 10^{-6} m^2$

And the magnitude of the stress on the fiber phase is

$\sigma_f = \frac{F_f}{A_f}=\frac{44594 N}{102\cdot 10^{-6} m^2}=4.37\cdot 10^8 Pa = 437 MPa$

(e) 8.0 MPa

The cross-sectional area of the matrix phase is

$A_m = A V_m$

where

$A=340 mm^2=340\cdot 10^{-6}m^2$ is the total cross-sectional area

Substituting $V_m=0.7$ , we have

$A_m = (340\cdot 10^{-6} m^2)(0.7)=238\cdot 10^{-6} m^2$

And the magnitude of the stress on the matrix phase is

$\sigma_m = \frac{F_m}{A_m}=\frac{1906 N}{238\cdot 10^{-6} m^2}=8.0\cdot 10^6 Pa = 8.0 MPa$

(f) $3.34\cdot 10^{-3}$

The longitudinal modulus of elasticity is

$E = E_f V_f + E_m V_m = (131 GPa)(0.3)+(2.4 GPa)(0.7)=41.0 Gpa$

While the total stress experienced by the composite is

$\sigma = \frac{F}{A}=\frac{46500 N}{340\cdot 10^{-6}m^2}=1.37\cdot 10^8 Pa = 0.137 GPa$

So, the strain experienced by the composite is

$\epsilon=\frac{\sigma}{E}=\frac{0.137 GPa}{41.0 GPa}=3.34\cdot 10^{-3}$

How heavy is an object that displaces 400N of water in a pool?

julia-pushkina [17]

All we can say is that the object's volume is about 41 liters. That's the same as the volume of water displaced.

We can't say anything about the object's weight. There is no direct connection between the weight of the object and the weight of the water it displaces.
