If you're swimming underwater and knock two rocks together, you will hear a very loud noise. But if your friend above the water

knocks two rocks together, you'll barely hear the sound.
Match the words.

The air-water interface is an example of boundary. The( )portion of the initial wave energy is way smaller than the( )portion. This makes the( ) wave hard to hear.

When both the source of the sound and your ears are located underwater, the sound is louder because the sound waves can( ) .

1. reflect more efficiently
2. transmitted
3. travel directly to your ears
4. boundary
5. reflected
6. discontinuity

Answer:

The air-water interface is an example of<em> </em>boundary. The <u><em>transmitted</em></u><em> </em> portion of the initial wave energy is way smaller than the <u><em>reflected</em></u><em> </em> portion. This makes the <u><em>boundary</em></u>  wave hard to hear.

When both the source of the sound and your ears are located underwater, the sound is louder because the sound waves can <u><em>travel directly to your ear</em></u>.

Explanation:

The air-to-water sound wave transmission is inhibited because more of reflection than transmission of the wave occurs at the boundary. In the end, only about 30% of the sound wave eventually reaches underwater. For sound generated underwater, all the wave energy is transmitted directly to the observer. Sound wave travel faster in water than in air because, the molecules of water are more densely packed together, and hence can easily transmit their vibration to their neighboring molecules, when compared to air.

A car is stopped for a traffic signal. When the light turns green, the car accelerates, increasing its speed from zero to 5.27 m
jeyben [28]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

From Newton's law; the rate of change of momentum is proportional to the impressed force. Hence;

F.t = mv- mu

F= force

t= time

m= mass

V= final velocity

u = initial velocity

since u = 0, mv= 0

F= MV/t

F= 69.8 × 5.27/0.833

F= 442 N

Impulse = Ft= 442 × 0.833= 368 Ns

What is the general relationship between earthquake epicenters and volcano positions along the Pacific coast of Mexico and Centr
yanalaym [24]

Geographically throughout this area of Mexico, Central America Caribbean is located the Cocos plate. This area is scientifically known as the Central American subduction zone.

In order for a volcano to form, there is usually a clash between the technical plates that generates the elevation of the ground and the connection with ducts that release the magma from the earth. If this entire area is a subduction area, it will also be a land stress release area where volcano lines will be formed, that is, it is a convergent plate boundary area
