Answer:

v = 340 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

A herdsman yelling out to a fellow herdsman heard his voice reflected by a cliff 4s later.

The cliff is 680 m away

We need to find the velocity of sound in air.

Velocity = distance/time

Distance = 2 × 680 = 1360 m

v=\dfrac{1360\ m}{4\ s}\\\\=340\ m/s

So, the velocity of sound in air is 340 m/s.

just olya [345]
The answer is false. The speed of the astronaut cancels out the force of gravity, causing a 'stationary freefall'. While under these effects, it is not required for an astronaut to 'strengthen' his body.

Help with both questions I’ll mark brainliest

Answer:

(1) A sound wave a mechanical wave because mechanical waves rely on particle interaction to transport their energy, they cannot travel through regions of space that are void of particles. Sound is a mechanical wave and cannot travel through a vacuum. These particle-to-particle, mechanical vibrations of sound conductance qualify sound waves as mechanical waves. Sound energy, or energy associated with the vibrations created by a vibrating source, requires a medium to travel, which makes sound energy a mechanical wave. The answer is(B) it travels in the medium.

(2) An ocean wave is an example of a mechanical transverse wave

The compression is the part of the compressional wave where the particles are crowded together. The rarefaction is the part of the compressional wave where the particles are spread apart. The answer is (C) Compression.
