The horizontal component would be

(77.02 m/s) cos(34°) ≈ 63.85 m/s

Can spoon ring like a bell prove it

mote1985 [20]

Yes spoon can sound like a bell. To prove this, we perform an experiment.The handle of the spoon is tied at the mid point of the string, then wrap the ends of the string around pointer fingers. Now place fingers in ears. Lean over so that spoon hangs freely and swing the spoon so it taps against a door.
A sound is produced because the spoon vibrated, causing sound waves to travel up the string and into ears.

A toy car travels at 5.3 m/s. The car travels a distance of 17.8 m. How long did it

bonufazy [111]

Explanation:

Assuming constant speed:

Distance = speed × time

17.8 m = (5.3 m/s) t

t = 3.36 s

You are sitting 3 m away from you friend who is watching a cartoon on his phone. How will the sound itensity change if your frie

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Decreases by $3.6 \times 10^{-3}$ times

Explanation:

The intensity of a sound is defined as the energy of the sound that is flowing in an unit time through the unit area which is in the direction that is perpendicular to the direction of the sound waves movement.

The intensity of energy is described by the inverse square law. It states that the intensity varies inversely with the distance square of the distance.

In other words, the sound intensity decreases as inversely proportional to the squared of the distance. i.e. $\frac{1}{r^2}$

In the context when the distance was 3 m, the intensity of the sound was = $\frac{1}{9}$

But when the distance became 6 cm or 0.06 m, the sound intensity decreases by = $\frac{1}{0.06^2}$

= $3.6 \times 10^{-3}$ times

A loud sound is produced in the downtown section of a city. Which of the following is least likely to occur with the sound wave

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

A. The sound wave will reflect off Buildings and automobiles.

Explanation:

This is because the sound waves would more likely propagate through diffraction through buildings and transmission through the air. It is also more likely to be absorbed by buildings than for multiple reflections to occur off buildings and automobiles. In the process of reflection, these materials would absorb the sound energy thereby reducing its ability to reflect.
