Sound travels fastest in solids. A sound is a vibration that travels in a longitudinal direction through a medium in the form of a mechanical wave.

<h3>What is sound?</h3>

A sound is a vibration that travels in a longitudinal direction through a medium in the form of a mechanical wave.

It can propagate through a solid, a liquid, or a gas as its medium. Solids go the fastest, liquids are slower, and gases are the slowest.

Sound travels the quickest through a solid because the molecules are packed together densely, allowing sound waves to leap from one molecule to the next more quickly.

Because the molecules in solids are packed the tightest, sound travels the quickest through them, whereas sound travels the slowest through gases.

To learn more about the sound refer to the link;

A ball is thrown so that its initial vertical and horizontal components of velocity are 30 m/s and 15 m/s, respectively. Estimat
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

H = 45 m

Explanation:

First we find the launch velocity of the ball by using the following formula:

v₀ = √(v₀ₓ² + v₀y²)

where,

v₀ = launching velocity = ?

v₀ₓ = Horizontal Component of Launch Velocity = 15 m/s

v₀y = Vertical Component of Launch Velocity = 30 m/s

Therefore,

v₀ = √[(15 m/s)² + (30 m/s)²]

v₀ = 33.54 m/s

Now, we find the launch angle of the ball by using the following formula:

θ = tan⁻¹ (v₀y/v₀ₓ)

θ = tan⁻¹ (30/15)

θ = tan⁻¹ (2)

θ = 63.43°

Now, the maximum height attained by the ball is given by the formula:

H = (v₀² Sin² θ)/2g

H = (33.54 m/s)² (Sin² 63.43°)/2(10 m/s²)

<u>H = 45 m</u>

When you hit a .27 kg volleyball the contact time is 50 ms and the average force is 125 N. If you serve the volleyball (from res

(A) P(v) = 0.135v

(B) P(h) = 0.234v

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Mass of the ball, m = 0.27kg

Force, F = 125N

angle of projection, θ = 30°

Let v be the velocity of the ball.

A) vertical component of the momentum of the volleyball

We know,

P(vertical) = mvsinθ

P(V) = 0.27 X v X sin 30°

P(V) = 0.27 X v X 0.5

P(V) = 0.135v

B) horizontal component of the momentum of the volleyball

We know,

P(Horizontal) = mvcosθ

P(h) = 0.27 X v X cos 30°

P(h) = 0.27 X v X 0.866

P(h) = 0.234v

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Option D.

Value cannot be calculated without knowing the speed of the train

Explanation:

The speed of the beam can only be calculated accurately when the speed of the train is put into consideration. Based of the theory of relativity, the observer is on the ground, and the train is moving with the beam of light inside it. This causes a variation in the reference frames when making judgements of the speed of the beam. The speed of the beam will be more accurate if the observer is moving at the same sped of the train, or the train is stationary.

To get the correct answer, we have to subtract the speed of the train from the speed calculated.
