Explain in detail why you cannot hear in space but you can see light(explanation includes particle movement of liquid, solids, g

ases, and plasma)
Physics
1 answer:
expeople1 [14]3 years ago

Answer:

The reason why one cannot hear in space but light can be seen is because light and sound are different kinds of wave

Light is an electromagnetic wave that propagates by a changing magnetic field hat creates a changing electric field. Light is created by a vibrating electric charge, and is transmitted through a medium by the absorption and reemission of the light by the medium particles

Sound is a longitudinal mechanical wave that is propagated by the vibration of the particles of the medium.

Sound requires a medium to propagate and it cannot be propagated or heard through space which is a vacuum.

Sound is created by a source that is vibrating and the vibration is transmitted to particles in the medium including solids, liquids, gases and plasma that the vibrating energy is in direct contact with and the transfer of the sound energy continues between layers of adjacent particles for the medium for the sound to be propagated from place to place

Whats it called when a force can change the shape of an object?
alekssr [168]

Force applied causes deformation in the object. It changes the relative positions of constituent particles in the crystal lattice.
As soon as that happens, the interatomic or intermolecular forces come into play and they, tend to restore the solid back to it's original shape.

This restoring force per unit area is called Stress . When external forces are removed, the internal forces tend to restore the solid back.
This property is called Elasticity .

However, no material is perfectly elastic and what happens is that, the body is not able to restore itself completely.

Explain how the thermal energy of an isolated system changes with time if the mechanical energy of that system is constant.​
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Thermal energy of an isolated system changes with time If the mechanical energy of that system is constant according to the first law of thermodynamics, which states that thermal energy of an isolated system can still change as long as the total energy of that system does not change.

A elephant kicks a 5.0\,\text {kg}5.0kg5, point, 0, start text, k, g, end text stone with 150\,\text J150J150, start text, J, en
S_A_V [24]

The speed of the stone is 7.7 m/s

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of a body is the energy possessed by the body due to its motion. Mathematically,

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the body

v is its speed

For the stone in this problem, we have:

K = 150 J is its kinetic energy

m = 5.0 kg is its mass

Re-arranging the equation for v, we find the speed of the stone:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(150)}{5.0}}=7.7 m/s
