Answer:
speed is affected by the medium in wich the wave travels.
Explanation:
The speed of a wave is affected when traveling in different medium, depending on the medium in which the wave travels it can go faster or slower, or not even be able to travel in that medium.
For light waves, the denser the medium through which the wave travels, the slower it will go through it, as there is more resistance to the light particles.
And in waves like sound, which instead of particles is a vibration or disturbance in the medium, they travel faster in denser mediums such as metal, because the disturbance is transmitted more efficiently thanks to how close together that the particles are in the metal, This is why sound does not travel in a vacuum; there are not even particles to transmit the vibration.
Answer:
High specific heat -> takes more energy to raise/lower object's temperature
Low specific heat -> takes less energy to raise/lower object's temperature
Explanation:
The specific heat capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of something per unit of mass.
A high specific heat value for an object means it takes more energy to raise or lower that object's temperature. A low specific heat value for an object means it does not take very much energy to heat or cool that object.
Answer:
6.26 m/s
Explanation:
Pretty slow.... the PE (Potential Energy) at 2m will be converted to KE (Kinetic Energy) at the bottom of the track (neglecting friction)
PE = KE
mgh = 1/2 mv^2 divide both sides of the equation by 'm'
gh = 1/2 v^2 multiply both sides by 2
2 gh = v^2 take sqrt of both sides
v = sqrt ( 2gh) = sqrt ( 2*9.81*2) = 6.26 m/s
