The medium determines the speed of the wave traveling in it, which also can have a number of other effects, including how much the wave bends (refracts), whether it reflects, etc.
Because waves move through space, they must have a velocity. The velocity of a wave is a function of the type of wave, and the medium it travels through. Electromagnetic waves moving through a vacuum, for instance, travel at roughly 3 x

m/s. This value is so famous and common in physics it is given its own symbol, c.
Answer:
Smallest drop: Water
Largest drop: Dirt
Explanation:
The heat needed to change the temperature of a sample is:
(1)
with Q the heat (added(+) or removed(-)), c specific heat, m the mass and
the change in temperature of the sample. So, if we solve (1) for
Sample A:


Sample B:


Sample C:


Note that the numbers 16744, 5400, 9450 are in the denominator of the expression
that gives the drop on temperature. so, if Q is the same for the three samples the smallest denominator gives the largest drop and vice versa.
So, the smallest drop is Sample A and the largest is Sample C.
(Important: The minus sign of
implies the temperature is dropping)
Answer:
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Original volume = V
New volume = V'
Original temperature = T
New temperature = T'
To write an expression for Charles's law;
Charles states that when the pressure of an ideal gas is kept constant, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.
Mathematically, Charles law is given by the formula;
Answer:
Part a)

Part b)

Part c)

Explanation:
As we know that acceleration is rate of change in velocity of the object
So here we know that


Part a)
differentiate x and y two times with respect to time to find the acceleration






Now the acceleration of the object is given as

at t= 1.1 s we have

now the net force of the object is given as



now magnitude of the force will be

Part b)
Direction of the force is given as



Part c)
For velocity of the particle we have




now at t = 1.1 s

now the direction of the velocity is given as



B. evaporation
c. condensation
They are opposite processes that involve the same transfer of energy
