Hey user!

your answer is here..

correct option is A. steel

we know that sounds travel faster in solid as compared to gas and liquids. in gas the molecules are very loosely packed and there is lot of space between so it takes more time to pass sound from each other. and in liquid, the molecules are closer as compared to gas hence it will be little faster and in solid, the molecules are very tightly packed so it will be the fastest. and among these options, steel is the only solid so the speed of sound in steel will be the fastest.

and note that the closer the molecules are to each other ( tightly packed ) makes the bond also tighter and less time to pass sound.

cheers!!

17. A volleyball weighs about 300 grams.

atroni [7]

Answer:

PE = 44.1 J

Explanation:

Ok, to have the specific data, the first thing we must do is convert from grams to kilograms. Since mass must always be in kilograms (kg)

We have:

1 kilograms = 1000 grams.

We convert it using a rule of 3, replacing, simplifying units and solving:

$\boxed{\bold{x=\frac{gr*1\ kg}{1000\ gr}=\frac{300\ gr*1\ kg}{1000\ gr}=\frac{300\ kg}{1000}=\boxed{\bold{0.3\ kg}}}}$

==================================================================

Earth's gravity is known to be 9.8 m/s², so we have:

Data:

m = 0.3 kg
g = 9.8 m/s²
h = 15 m
PE = ?

Use formula of potencial energy:

$\boxed{\bold{PE=m*g*h}}$

Replace and solve:

$\boxed{\bold{PE=0.3\ kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*15\ m}}$

$\boxed{\boxed{\bold{PE=44.1\ J}}}$

Since the decimal number, that is, the number after the comma is less than 5, it cannot be rounded, then we have this result.

The potential energy of the volleyball is <u>44.1 Joules.</u>

Greetings.

A mass weighting 16 lbs stretches a spring 3 inches. The mass is in a medium that exerts a viscous resistance of 20 lbs when the

const2013 [10]

Answer:

The equation for the object's displacement is $u(t)=0.583cos11.35t$

Explanation:

Given:

m = 16 lb

δ = 3 in

The stiffness is:

$k=\frac{m}{\delta } =\frac{16}{3} =5.33lb/in$

The angular speed is:

$w=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } =\sqrt{\frac{5.33*386.4}{16} } =11.35rad/s$

The damping force is:

$F_{D} =cu$

Where

FD = 20 lb

u = 4 ft/s = 48 in/s

Replacing:

$c=\frac{F_{D} }{u} =\frac{20}{48} =0.42lbs/in$

The critical damping is equal:

$c_{c} =\frac{2k}{w} =\frac{2*5.33}{11.35} =0.94lbs/in$

Like cc>c the system is undamped

The equilibrium expression is:

$u(t)=u(o)coswt+u'(o)sinwt\\u(o)=7=0.583\\u'(o)=0\\u(t)=0.583coswt\\u(t)=0.583cos11.35t$
