Answer:

Sound travels faster in liquids than in gases because molecules are packed more closely together. This means that when the water molecules begin to vibrate, they quickly begin to collide with each other forming a rapidly moving compression wave. Sound travels over four times faster than in air

What quantity is the rate of change of velocity? Displacement Acceleration Final velocity

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Acceleration

Explanation:

The quantity of the rate of change of velocity is termed the acceleration of the body.

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time;

A = $\frac{v - u}{t}$

A is the acceleration

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

A long, thin straight wire with linear charge density λ runs down the center of a thin, hollow metal cylinder of radius R. The c

Delvig [45]

Answer:

$E=\dfrac{\lambda }{2\pi \varepsilon _or}$

Explanation:

Given that

For straight wire

Charge density= λ

For hollow metal cylinder

Charge density=2 λ

We know that electric filed for wire given as

$E_w=\dfrac{\lambda_{wire} }{2\pi \varepsilon _or}$

$E_w=\dfrac{\lambda }{2\pi \varepsilon _or}$

Now the electric filed due to hollow metal cylinder

$E_c=\dfrac{\lambda_{cylinder} }{2\pi \varepsilon _or}$

$E_c=\dfrac{2\lambda }{2\pi \varepsilon _or}$

Now by considering the Gaussian surface r<R then only electric fild due to wire will present.So

At r<R

$E=\dfrac{\lambda }{2\pi \varepsilon _or}$
