9. The wave speed of sound waves traveling through
four different media was measured at a constant
temperature, Results are summarized in the table,
Which statement provides a plausible hypothesis
based on these results?
Medium
Wave Speed
of Sound
Cork
366 m/s
Water
1,433 m/s
Glass
5,640 m/s
Steel
6,100 m/s
Changing the composition of a medium from metals to
nonmetals enables sound waves to be transmitted at higher X
speeds,
Changing the state of a medium from liquid to solid enables
sound waves to be transmitted at higher speeds,
Decreasing the brittleness of a medium enables sound
waves to be transmitted at higher speeds,
Increasing the density of molecules in a medium enables
sound waves to be transmitted at higher speeds,

Air is held within a frictionless piston-cylinder container, which is oriented vertically. the mass of the piston is 0.45 kg and the cross-sectional area is 0.0030 m2. initially (state 1) the pressure of the gas is sufficient to support the weight of the piston as well as the force exerted by the atmospheric pressure ( 101.32 kpa). the volume occupied by the air within the cylinder in state 1 is 1.00 liter. one end of a spring (with spring constant k = 1000 n/m) is attached to the top of the piston, while the other end of the spring is attached to a stage that can move vertically. initially the spring is undeflected and therefore exerts no force. then the stage is then moved quasistatically downward a distance of 10.0 cm, at which point the system reaches state 2. the piston-cylinder is not insulated; rather it remains in diathermal contact with the surroundings, which are at a constant temperature of 300 k. what is the change of pressure within the container?

Will give brainliest! jay rides his 2.0-kg skateboard. he is moving at speed 5.8 m/s when he pushes off the board and continues to move forward in the air at 5.4 m/s. the board now goes forward at 13 m/s.a. determine jay’s mass.b. determine the change in the internal energy of the system during this process.(express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.)

Aparticle moves in the xy plane with constant acceleration. at time zero, the particle is at x = 6 m, y = 8.5 m, and has velocity ~vo = (9 m/s) ˆı + (−2.5 m/s) ˆ . the acceleration is given by ~a = (4.5 m/s 2 ) ˆı + (3 m/s 2 ) ˆ . what is the x component of velocity after 3.5 s? answer in units of m/s.
