Answer:

while ice is made by water again it melts and becomes water. water is colourless and odourless and has no taste but ice is only cold and hard. water is used for drinking and other things. but is for freshness and it never flows

Explanation:

so ice reflect more energy compared to water

Sound waves that enter the external acoustic meatus eventually encounter the __________, which then vibrates at the same frequen

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

tympanic membrane (eardrum)

Explanation:

The sound waves spread through the air and reach the outer ear, into which they penetrate through the ear canal. In doing so, they stimulate the eardrum, which closes the inner end of the duct. By vibrating this membrane, the vibration of a chain of ossicles located in the middle ear is induced. These ossicles transmit their vibration to the oval window, which is a membranous structure that communicates the middle ear with the cochlea of the inner ear. When the oval membrane moves, it moves the liquid (perilymph) that fills one of the three cavities of the cochlea generating waves in it. These waves mechanically stimulate the sensory cells (hair cells) located in the organ of Corti, within the cochlea in the central cavity, the middle ramp. This cavity is filled with a liquid rich in K +, endolymph. The cells embedded in the endolymph, change their permeability to K + due to the movement of the cilia and respond by releasing a neurotransmitter that excites the nerve terminals, which initiate the auditory sensory pathway.

Um objeto de 4cm de altura está a 30cm de um espelho côncavo, cujo raio de curvatura tem valor absoluto de 20cm.

Shkiper50 [21]

a) The distance of the image from the mirror is 15 cm

b) The size of the image is -2 cm (inverted)

Explanation:

We can solve this first part of the problem by applying the mirror equation:

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}$

where

f is the focal length

p is the distance of the object from the mirror

q is the distance of the image from the mirror

For a mirror, the focal length is half the radius of curvature, R:

$f=\frac{R}{2}$

For this mirror, R = 20 cm, so its focal length is

$f=\frac{20}{2}=+10 cm$ (positive for a concave mirror)

Here we also know:

p = 30 cm is the distance of the object from the mirror

So, by applying the equation, we can find q:

$\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{10}-\frac{1}{30}=\frac{1}{15} \rightarrow q = 15 cm$

We can solve this part by using the magnification equation:

$M=-\frac{y'}{y}=\frac{q}{p}$

where

y' is the size of the image

y is the size of the object

q is the distance of the image from the mirror

p is the distance of the object from the mirror

Here we have:

q = 15 cm

p = 30 cm

y = 4 cm

Solving for y', we find the size of the image:

$y'=-y\frac{q}{p}=-(4)\frac{15}{30}=-2 cm$

and the negative sign means that the image is inverted.

If the spring constant is doubled , what value does the period have for a mass on a spring?

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

D. The period would decrease by sqrt (2)

Explanation:

The period of a mass-spring system is given by:

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$

where

m is the mass

k is the spring constant of the spring

If the spring constant is doubled,

k' = 2k

So the new period will be

$T'=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{(2k)}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}})=\frac{T}{\sqrt{2}}$

So the correct answer is

D. The period would decrease by sqrt (2)

Earth orbits the sun at an average circular radius of about 149.60 million kilometers every 365.26 Earth days.

kobusy [5.1K]

The Earth’s average orbital speed expressed in kilometers per hours is 107225.5 Km/hr and the mass of the sun is 2.58 x $10^{24}$ Kg

<h3>Relationship between Linear and angular speed</h3>

Linear speed is the product of angular speed and the maximum displacement of the particle. That is,

V = Wr

Where

V = Linear speed

W = Angular speed

r = Radius

Given that the earth orbits the sun at an average circular radius of about 149.60 million kilometers every 365.26 Earth days.

a) To determine the Earth’s average orbital speed, we will make use of the below formula to calculate angular speed

W = 2 $\pi$ /T

W = (2 x 3.143) / (365.26 x 24)

W = 6.283 / 876624

W = 7.2 x $10^{-4}$ Rad/hr

The Earth’s average orbital speed V = Wr

V = 7.2 x $10^{-4}$ x 149.6 x $10^{6}$

V = 107225.5 kilometers per hours.

b) Based on the information given in this question, to calculate the approximate mass of the Sun, we will use Kepler's 3rd law

M = (4 $\pi ^{2}$ $r^{3}$ ) / G $T^{2}$

M = (4 x 9.8696 x 3.35 x $10^{24}$ ) / (6.67 x $10^{-11}$ x 7.68 x $10^{11}$ <em>)</em>

<em>M = 1.32 x </em> $10^{26}$ / 51.226

M = 2.58 x $10^{24}$ Kg

Therefore, the Earth’s average orbital speed expressed in kilometers per hours is 107225.5 Km/hr and the mass of the sun is 2.58 x $10^{24}$ Kg
