Answer:

The correct answer is a rarefaction.

Explanation:

Sound waves are longitudinal waves that propagate in a medium, such as air. As the vibration continues, a series of successive condensations and rarefactions form and propagate from it. The pattern created in the air is something like a sinusoidal curve to represent a sound wave.

There are peaks in the sine wave at the points where the sound wave has condensations and valleys where it has rarefactions.

Have a nice day!

Suppose you are talking by interplanetary telephone to your friend, who lives on the Moon. He tells you that he has just won a n

Savatey [412]

Answer:

The friend on moon will be richer.

Explanation:

We must calculate the mass of gold won by each person, to tell who is richer. For that purpose we will use the following formula:

W = mg

m = W/g

where,

m = mass of gold

W = weight of gold

g = acceleration due to gravity on that planet

FOR FRIEND ON MOON:

W = 1 N

g = 1.625 m/s²

Therefore,

m = (1 N)/(1.625 m/s²)

m(moon) = 0.6 kg

FOR ME ON EARTH:

W = 1 N

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

m = (1 N)/(9.8 m/s²)

m(earth) = 0.1 kg

Since, the mass of gold on moon is greater than the mass of moon on earth.

Therefore, the friend on moon will be richer.

The electric potential in a particular region of space varies only as a function of y-position and is given by the function V(y)

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

$E = 55.9583\ Volts/meter$

Explanation:

First let's find the electric potential using y = 22.5:

$V(y) = 1.69y^2 +15.6y+52.5$

$V(22.5) = 1.69(22.5)^2 + 15.6*22.5 + 52.5$

$V(22.5) = 1259.0625\ Volts$

Then, to find the magnitude of the electric field, we just need to divide the electric potential by the distance y:

$E = V/d$

$E = 1259.0625/22.5$

$E = 55.9583\ Volts/meter$

The energy stored in a wooden log transforms when the log is burned. Which of the following explanations BEST describes how the

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

D. the amount of chemical energy equals the amount of heat and light energy.

Explanation:

Given that the first law of thermodynamics affirmed that energy is neither created nor destroyed however, it can be transformed from one form to another. In other words, while, during the transformation of energy, no energy is lost, the input energy is also equal to output energy.

Hence, the chemical energy stored in the log is EQUAL to the heat and light energy produced by burning.
