Answer:

1: v = √E/ρ where E is the elasticity and ρ is the density. Newton's assumed that sound wave travel in air under isothermal condition

2: He corrected Newton's formula by assuming that, there is no heat exchange takes place as the compression and rarefaction takes place very fast. Thus, the temperature does not remain constant and the propagation of the sound wave in air is an adiabatic process.

Use ideas of electromagnetic induction to explain how the input voltage is transformed into an output voltage

devlian [24]

With the help of a transformer input voltage is transformed into an output voltage

<h3>What is induced voltage?</h3>

Electromagnetic induction is what causes the induced voltage. Electromagnetic induction is the process of generating emf (induced voltage) by subjecting a conductor to a magnetic field.

In this case, a magnet is pushed in and out of a wire coil attached to a high-resistance voltmeter.

Typically, a transformer's primary winding is attached to the input voltage source and changes electrical power into a magnetic field.

The secondary winding's role is to turn this alternating magnetic field into electricity, generating the necessary output voltage.

Hence with the help of a transformer input voltage is transformed into an output voltage.

The electric potential difference across the membrane of a body cell is 0.070 V (higher on the outside than on the inside). The

12345 [234]

Answer:

The electric field is $8.75 \times 10^{6}~v~m^{-1}$ and the ditection is from outer to inner side of the membrane.

Explanation:

We know the electric field ( $\vec{E}$ ) is given by $\vec{E} = - \nabla V$ , 'V' being the potential.

In 1-D, it can be written as

$E=\dfrac{V}{d}$

where 'd' is the separation of space in between the potential difference is created.

Given, $V = 0.070~V~$ and the thickness of the cell membrane is $d = 8.0 \times 10^{-9}~m$ .

Therefore the created electric field through the cell membrane is

$E = \dfrac{0.07~V}{8 \times 10^{-9}~m} = 8.75 \times 10^{6}~m~s^{-1}$

Take for example driving by with a cake in your hand, then dropping it while going 30 mph. It will not drop directly down, it will gradually go in the direction you were driving while falling.
This is true I believe, if I'm interpreting correctly.

How can you tell that this paragraph uses a quotation?<br> Check all that apply?

Debora [2.8K]

Answer- There are two reasons that we know quotations have been used first is the use of of name of the person who quoted it and secondly the quotation is written inside the quotation marks.

Explanation- Quotation is nothing but using a line that has been already quoted by someone somewhere. Such sentences are normally written inside quotation marks. In the above given paragraph the name of the person who quotes the sentence is also given hence we know that our quotation has been used.

Q1: A runner is jogging in a straight line at a steady vr= 6.8 km/hr. When the runner is L= 2.4 km from the finish line, a bird

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Q1: 3.2km

Q2: 4.8K

Explanation:

Q1:

So db is the distance of bird, and dr is the distance of runner

db = 2vr and the distance of bird is going to be 2 times greater than the runner.

formulas: db = 2vr & db = 2dr
