A. Outside on a summer day, there are less particles that the sound bounces off of (snow and wind absorb the sound)

B. Water, sound travels faster through denser objects. Water has a higher density than air.

C. High air pressure, sound moves faster through matter that is closer together. This can be said because sound can't travel through space. (There is no atmosphere and consistent particles in space for sound to go through)

D. A piece of steel, It's denser than wood and water.

E. 90% nitrogen and 10% helium, nitrogen is denser than helium so it will move faster

The answer is a. endothermic.
In endothermic reaction, as the name suggests, the reactants require energy absorption to form and complete the chemical reaction to form products.
And even if you don't know the answer, you can exclude all other answers by scientific logic and you will be left with the correct answer.

Hope this helps.

What is one disadvantage of a series circuit?

nlexa [21]

If one bulb goes out then all the others won't light up because electricity will be cut off. It's a disadvantage because in a parallel circuit if one bulb burns out all the others will still be on because they won't be affected. I hope I've helped you ☺

a swimmer can swim in still water at a speed of 9.50 m/s. he intends to swim directly across the river that has a downstream cur

Doss [256]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Still-water speed = 9.5 m/s
River speed = 3.75 m/s down stream.

The velocity of the swimmer relative to the bank is the vector sum of his still-water speed and the speed of the river.

The velocity relative to the bank is
V = √(9.5² + 3.75²) = 10.21 m/s

The downstream angle is
θ = tan⁻¹ 3.75/9.5 = 21.5°

Answer: 10.2 m/s at 21.5° downstream.
