Answer:
<u><em>0.03 m/s</em></u>
Explanation:
<em>Applying law of conservation of momentum, </em>
- <em>m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v</em>
- <em>0.105(24) + 75(0) = (0.105 + 75)v</em>
- <em>75.105v = 2.52</em>
- <em>v = 2.52/75.105</em>
- <em>v = </em><u><em>0.03 m/s</em></u>
Answer:
Required energy Q = 231 J
Explanation:
Given:
Specific heat of copper C = 0.385 J/g°C
Mass m = 20 g
ΔT = (50 - 20)°C = 30 °C
Find:
Required energy
Computation:
Q = mCΔT
Q = 20(0.385)(30)
Required energy Q = 231 J
Sound waves travel faster through <em>solids</em> than they do through gases or liquids. <em>(C) </em>They don't travel through vacuum at all.
Example:
Speed of sound in normal air . . . around 340 m/s
Speed of sound in water . . . around 1,480 m/s
Speed of sound in iron . . . around 5,120 m/s
