Differentiate between:a. Compression and Rarefaction​

Physics
1 answer:
zlopas [31]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Compression

The region in a medium where the distance between the vibrating molecules is minimum is compression.

This is the region with higher air pressure than the surrounding .

Rarefaction

The region in a medium where the distance between the vibrating molecules is maximum is rarefaction.

This is the region with relatively low air pressure.

hope it helps :)

Naddik [55]

Answer: 240ohms

Explanation: P=IV

P=60watts

I=0.5A

V=120volts

From ohms law

V=IR

R=V/I

R=120/0.5

R= 240ohms

A chemical reaction takes place in which energy is absorbed. Arrange the characteristics of the reaction in order from start to
Ira Lisetskai [31]
<h2>Answer</h2>

It will be single step endothermic reaction.

<h2>Expalantion</h2>

In the endothermic reaction, the reactants come together to convert to products by absorbing the heat from the external source. This reaction is explained is also known as one step reaction as reactants meet to get the transition stage and converts to the product. But in some reactions, the activation energy required to activate the reactants to get the transition stage to form products. For this, the reaction will have the steps as activation energy, reactant meet, transition stage and products form.

⦁ A car going 50 m/s is brought to rest in a distance of 20.0 m as it strikes a pile of dirt. How large an average force is exer
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

the average force exerted by seatbelts on the passenger is 5625 N.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the car, u = 50 m/s

distance traveled by the car, s = 20 m

final velocity of the after coming to rest, v = 0

mass of the passenger, m = 90 kg

Determine the acceleration of the car as it hit the pile of dirt;

v² = u² + 2as

0 = 50² + (2 x 20)a

0 = 2500 + 40a

40a = -2500

a = -2500/40

a = -62.5 m/s²

The deceleration of the car is 62.5 m/s²

The force exerted on the passenger by the backward action of the car is calculated as follows;

F = ma

F = 90 x 62.5

F = 5625 N

Therefore, the average force exerted by seatbelts on the passenger is 5625 N.
