1. In which medium does sound travel the fastest? a. salt water
b. fresh water
c. air
d. cast iron

2. A wave has a wavelength of 10 mm and a frequency of 5 hertz. What is its speed?
a. 50 mm/s
b. 50 hertz/s
c. 2 mm/s
d. 0.50 mm/s

3. How does reflection differ from refraction and diffraction?
a. Reflection is the only process in which the wave does not continue moving forward.
b. Reflection is the only process that involves a change in the wave.
c. Reflection affects all types of mechanical waves, but refraction and diffraction do not.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer : 1. cast iron

2. 50 mm/s

3. Reflection is the only process in which the wave does not continue moving forward.

Explanation :

1. The speed of sound is greatest in solid. So, the speed of the sound is fastest in cast iron. It is approximately equal to 4600 m/s.

2. Wavelength, λ = 10 mm

Frequency, υ = 5 Hz

Speed = wavelength × frequency

Speed = 10 mm × 5 s⁻¹

Speed, s = 50 mm/s

3. The bouncing back of light is called the reflection of light. In this process, the wave does not continue moving forward.

Answer 2
Answer:

1- CAST IRON

2- 50 mm/s

3-  Reflection is the only process in which the wave does not continue moving forward.

3) The planets formed at the center of a collapsing spinning cloud of gas and dust.
4) The sun and planets formed from a collapsing spinning cloud of gas and dust.

Answers

1. Kuiper Belt object is made of frozen is made of frozen gas, ice, and dust that orbits in the outermost reaches of the solar system. Kuiper belt is a region which is filled with icy gaz bodies. Its structure is almost the same as the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Pluto, Makemake, Haumea are the officially recognized planets which are located in this region. 2. In my opinion, the most suitable option is: 3) The planets formed at the center of a collapsing spinning cloud of gas and dust. According to theory of solar system formation, the solar system appeared after a supernova (star explosion). A cloud of gas and dust was collapsed, and it caused a formation of a solar nebula.

Answer:

1:  C. Kuiper Belt object

2:  D. The sun and planets formed from a collapsing spinning cloud of gas and dust.

Lightning strikes 16,090 meters away from you.How long does it take the sound of thunder to get to you at 20°C temperature?


with solution and formula<3

Answers

Final answer:

It takes approximately 47 seconds for the sound of thunder to reach you at 20°C temperature.

Explanation:

The time it takes for the sound of thunder to reach you can be determined using the formula:

Time = Distance / Speed

Sound travels at a speed of approximately 343 meters per second at 20°C. Therefore, to calculate the time it takes for the sound to reach you, divide the distance by the speed:

Time = 16,090 meters / 343 meters per second

Time = 46.97 seconds

So, it takes approximately 47 seconds for the sound of thunder to reach you at 20°C temperature.

A balloon drifts 140m toward the west in 45s ; then the wind suddenly changes and the balloon flies 90m toward the east in the next 25s. What distance did it travel during the first 45s?

Answers

Answer: 140 m

Explanation:

Let's begin by stating clear that motiont is the change of position of a body at a certain time. So, during this motion, the balloon will have a trajectory and a displacement, being both different:

The trajectory is the path followed by the body, the distance it travelled (is a scalar quantity).  

The displacement is the distance in a straight line between the initial and final position (is a vector quantity).  

So, according to this, the distance the balloon traveled during the first 45 s (its trajectory) is 140 m.

But, if we talk about displacement, we have to draw a straight line between the initial position of the balloon (point 0) to its final position (point 90 m).  Being its displacement 95 m.

The process by which a gas changes to a solid is

Answers

The correct answer to the question is - Deposition i.e the process by which a gas changes to a solid is called deposition.

EXPLANATION:

There are various thermal processes of state or phase change in which matter in one state is converted into matter in another state.

Deposition is the type of thermodynamic process of state or phase change in which a gaseous substance is directly converted into corresponding solid substance without entering into liquid phase.

During this process, the loss of thermal energy from gas is very fast. Hence, the gas directly enters solid phase without undergoing into liquid phase.

This process is just the opposite process of sublimation where a solid is converted into gas directly. That's why this process is also known as desublimation.

For instance, conversion of water vapor into ice.

That process is called deposition.
