Answer:

The different speed of the sound waves in water and in air.

Explanation:

Sound waves are defined as the mechanical waves that are resulted from the vibrations back and forth of the particles of the medium through which the sound is moving.

The speed of the sound is faster in water than in air. Sound travels much faster in water than in air. In air the speed of the sound waves is 343 meter per second while the speed of the sound waves in water is 1480 meters per second.

In the context, Jason who is swimming in his pool hears sound differently underwater and above the water because of the difference in the speed of the sound waves above the water and in water.

Explain why the force of muscle twitch can vary?
padilas [110]

Answer

Frequency of stimulus can change the force of muscle twitch.

Explanation

Twitch is tension produced by the contraction of a small muscle or it is muscle fasciculation. Its strength depends on the stimulation frequency. If the frequency is higher then temporal summation takes place and produce higher tension in the muscle. If the frequency is weak then less tension is produced in the muscle. This force also depends on the cross-sectional area of muscle.

Margarita [4]

Answer:

Memories aren't just stored in one part of our brains. Different parts are stored in different brain regions, but the hippocampus is memories are formed and later accessed.  

Learning can be improved by paying attention when learning something new so that you can take in the knowledge.

Explicit memories are conscious and can be verbally explained, however, implicit memories are usually nonconscious and are not verbally articulated.

Explanation: I'm sorry but I don't know the answer to your last question, so I hope you figure out the answer to that one...........also hope this at least helps you out somewhat:)
