Answer:A air

Explanation:Of the three mediums (gas, liquid, and solid) sound waves travel the slowest through gases, faster through liquids, and fastest through solids. Temperature also affects the speed of sound.

Hope this helps you out ツ

A. air would be the correct answer

Sound travels more quickly through solids than through liquids and gases because the molecules of a solid are closer together and, therefore, can transmit the vibrations (energy) faster. Sound travels most slowly through gases because the molecules of a gas are farthest apart.

At what height h above the ground does the projectile have a speed of 0.5v?
dedylja [7]

Answer:height above ground at which projectile have velocity

0.5v is (0.0375v^2)

Explanation:

Using Vf = Vi - gt

Where Vf is final velocity

Vi is initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time taken

So, 0.5v = v - gt

t = 0.05v

Therefore height h = vt - 0.5gt^2

Subtitute t

h = 0.05v^2 - 0.0125v^2

h = 0.0375v^2

How long will it take a 400 W engine to lift a 100 N object up to a height of 80 m?
Norma-Jean [14]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

20 seconds

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given</u>;

  • Power of the engine as 400 watts
  • Force as 100 N
  • Distance the object is lifted up as 80 m

We are required to determine the time taken.

  • We need to know that power is the rate of work done

Therefore;

  • Power = Work done ÷ time

But, work done  = Force × distance

  • Therefore; In this case;

Work done = 100 N × 80 m

                  = 8000 Joules

  • Since , Power = Work done ÷ time

Then, time = Work done ÷ Power

Thus;

Time = 8000 J ÷ 400 W

       = 20 s

Therefore, the time taken by the engine to lift the object is 20 seconds
