Physics

5 0

Answer:

Pressure is defined as the force divided by the area perpendicular to the force over which the force is applied, or. P=FA. A given force can have a significantly different effect depending on the area over which the force is exerted Pressure the effect of a force applied to a surface is a derived unit, obtained from combining base units. The unit of pressure in the SI system is the pascal (Pa), defined as a force of one Newton per square meter. The conversion between atm, Pa, and torr is as follows: 1 atm = 101325 Pa = 760 torr.

Explanation:

Pressure and force are related, and so you can calculate one if you know the other by using the physics equation, P = F/A. Because pressure is force divided by area, its meter-kilogram-second (MKS) units are newtons per square meter, or N/m2. If you convert an atmosphere to pounds per square inch, it's about 14.7 psi.

Answer:

Concrete

Explanation:

The speed at which sound propagates is medium dependent. As one of the forms of mechanical waves, sound requires a material medium for propagation from place to place.

  • Sound travels with the least speed in air because air particles are far apart and they are randomized.
  • Sound travels with the greatest speed in solids. Concrete is the only solid material given in the choice.

The speed of sound increases from air to liquid and to solid.
