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.

Answer:

A. U_0 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

B. U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{6d}

C. U_2 = \dfrac{K\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

Explanation:

The capacitance of a capacitor is its ability to store charges. For parallel-plate capacitors, this ability depends the material between the plates, the common plate area and the plate separation. The relationship is

C=\dfrac{\epsilon A}{d}

C is the capacitance, A is the common plate area, d is the plate separation and \epsilon is the permittivity of the material between the plates.

For air or free space, \epsilon is \epsilon_0 called the permittivity of free space. In general, \epsilon=\epsilon_r \epsilon_0 where \epsilon_r is the relative permittivity or dielectric constant of the material between the plates. It is a factor that determines the strength of the material compared to air. In fact, for air or vacuum, \epsilon_r=1.

The energy stored in a capacitor is the average of the product of its charge and voltage.

U = \dfrac{QV}{2}

Its charge, Q, is related to its capacitance by Q=CV (this is the electrical definition of capacitance, a ratio of the charge to its voltage; the previous formula is the geometric definition). Substituting this in the formula for U,

U = \dfrac{CV^2}{2}

A. Substituting for C in U,

U_0 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

B. When the distance is 3d,

U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2\times3d}

U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{6d}

C. When the distance is restored but with a dielectric material of dielectric constant, K, inserted, we have

U_2 = \dfrac{K\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}
