Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Mechanical waves requires some medium to travel through. They travel faster in the dense medium as compared to a free medium.

The speed of a mechanical wave is fastest in the solid medium and the slowest in the gaseous medium. Hence, as the wave traverses from gaseous medium to the solid medium, its speed increases.

Thus, option A is correct

To develop this problem we will begin to determine the distances traveled in each of the segments using the linear motion kinematic equations. For this purpose, the distance traveled will be determined by the product between speed and time.

Part A is attached and indicates the graph of distance traveled vs time. And the calculations for development are found below. With the distance traveled and the total time it will be possible to find the average speed of the second part.

In 1.5 min the distance covered was,

d_1 = (1.5 min)(\frac{60s}{1min}) (12m/s) = 1080m

In the next 3.5min the distance covered is 0.

d_2 = 0

The distance covered for the next 2.5 min is

d_3 = (2.5 min)(\frac{60s}{1min})(15m/s)=2250m

Total distance covered is

d_T = d_1+d_2+d_3

d_T = 1080+0+2250

d_T = 3330m

For the average distance we need to use the total distance covered in the total time used. Then,

v_{Avg} = \frac{d_T}{t_T}

v_{Avg} = \frac{3330m}{7.5min (\frac{60s}{1min})}

v_{Avg} = 7.4m/s

A chemical bond results from the mutual attraction of the nuclei for
GenaCL600 [577]

A chemical bond results from the mutual attraction of the nuclei for  atoms and electrons.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Each atom tends to have an energy between the nuclei and electrons to keep it stable. So, there will be mutual attraction of the nuclei of atom and of electrons in the innermost shell to the outermost shell. And, this kind of mutual attraction can also be termed as chemical bond or binding energy.

So, depending upon the strength of mutual attraction, the nature of the element can be determined as well as its nature of reactivity can be analysed. So, results as a chemical bond from the mutual attractions of nuclei for atoms and electrons.

Answer:

Force required to pull the two hemisphere = 46622.72N

Explanation:

Complete question ( Note: 1 millibar=100 N/m2. One atmosphere is 1013 millibar = 1.013×105 N/m2 ] 

The contact area between the hemispheres is (pi x 0.400^2) = 0.5024m^2.

Pressure difference = (940 - 12) = 928 millibars.

(928 x 100) = 92,800N/m^2.

(92800 x 0.5024) = 46622.72N. force required to part the hemispheres.

Fan object moves in uniform circular motion in a circle of radius R=200 meters, and the objectes 5.00 seconds to
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration of the object is 31550.72\ m/s^2.  

Explanation:

We have,

Radius of a circular path is 200 m

It takes 5 seconds to complete 10 revolutions. The angular velocity of the object is given by the rate of change of angular displacement per unit time :

\omega=\dfrac{\Delta \theta}{\Delta t}\\\\\omega=\dfrac{2\pi \times 10}{5}\\\\\omega=12.56\ rad/s

The centripetal acceleration of the object is given by :

a=\omega^2 r\\\\a=(12.56)^2 \times 200\\\\a=31550.72\ m/s^2

So, the centripetal acceleration of the object is 31550.72\ m/s^2.
