Through which of these media do sound waves travel most slowly? A.iron. B.Wood. C.Water. D.Cold Air

The answer should be D) Cold air because even though its true sound can travel through all types of matter, air which is a gas, can travel but it travels SLOWLY while sound travels quickly in SOLIDS.

A torque of 36.5 N · m is applied to an initially motionless wheel which rotates around a fixed axis. This torque is the result

vivado [14]

Answer:

$21.6\ \text{kg m}^2$

$3.672\ \text{Nm}$

$54.66\ \text{revolutions}$

Explanation:

$\tau$ = Torque = 36.5 Nm

$\omega_i$ = Initial angular velocity = 0

$\omega_f$ = Final angular velocity = 10.3 rad/s

t = Time = 6.1 s

I = Moment of inertia

From the kinematic equations of linear motion we have

$\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha_1 t\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=\dfrac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=\dfrac{10.3-0}{6.1}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=1.69\ \text{rad/s}^2$

Torque is given by

$\tau=I\alpha_1\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{\tau}{\alpha_1}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{36.5}{1.69}\\\Rightarrow I=21.6\ \text{kg m}^2$

The wheel's moment of inertia is $21.6\ \text{kg m}^2$

t = 60.6 s

$\omega_i$ = 10.3 rad/s

$\omega_f$ = 0

$\alpha_2=\dfrac{0-10.3}{60.6}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=-0.17\ \text{rad/s}^2$

Frictional torque is given by

$\tau_f=I\alpha_2\\\Rightarrow \tau_f=21.6\times -0.17\\\Rightarrow \tau=-3.672\ \text{Nm}$

The magnitude of the torque caused by friction is $3.672\ \text{Nm}$

Speeding up

$\theta_1=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.69\times 6.1^2\\\Rightarrow \theta_1=31.44\ \text{rad}$

Slowing down

$\theta_2=10.3\times 60.6+\dfrac{1}{2}\times (-0.17)\times 60.6^2\\\Rightarrow \theta_2=312.03\ \text{rad}$

Total number of revolutions

$\theta=\theta_1+\theta_2\\\Rightarrow \theta=31.44+312.03=343.47\ \text{rad}$

$\dfrac{343.47}{2\pi}=54.66\ \text{revolutions}$

The total number of revolutions the wheel goes through is $54.66\ \text{revolutions}$ .

If a soap bubble is 115 nm thick, what wavelength is most strongly reflected at the center of the outer surface when illuminated

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

$611.8$ nm

Explanation:

$n_{oil}$ = Index of refraction of soap bubble = 1.33

$t$ = thickness of the soap bubble = 115 nm = 115 x 10⁻⁹ m

$\lambda$ = wavelength of light = ?

$m$ = order = 0

For reflection , the necessary condition is

$2 n_{oil} t = (m + 0.5) \lambda$

$2 (1.33)(115\times 10^{-9})= (0 + 0.5) \lambda$

$\lambda = 6.118\times 10^{-7}$

$\lambda = 611.8$ nm
