An electric switch is a device that interrupts the electron flow in a circuit. Switches are primarily binary devices: either fully on or off and light switches have a simple design. When the switch is turned off, the circuit breaks and the power flow is interrupted. Circuits consist of a source of power and load.

Which best describes the energy of a sound wave as it travels through a medium?
It increases
It decreases
It remains the same
It depends on the medium
Answer:
It depends on the medium is answer.
Explanation:
I hope it's helpful!
The energy of sound waves depends on the nature of medium it travels through. As the speed of the wave increases in the medium its energy increases. Hence, option d is correct.
What are sound waves ?Sound waves are type of mechanical waves passing through a medium. Sound waves are longitudinal waves hence, the oscillation of particles is in the same direction of of the wave propagation.
The energy of a wave is directly proportional to the frequency of the wave and inversely proportional to the wavelength. As the density of the medium increases, the speed of the wave decreases and thereby energy too.
Sound waves travels with higher speed through solids. As their energy increases, the waves moves with higher speed. Hence, the energy of sound waves depends on the nature of the medium.

Which of the following remains constant during the motion of a projectile fired from a planet?
A. Momentum
B. Kinetic energy
C. Horizontal component of velocity
D. Vertical component of velocity
Answer:
C. Horizontal component of velocity
Explanation:
Object in motion stays in motion,
nothing works against its motion in the horizontal direction, unlike in the vertical direction, gravity pulls object down.

Assume that it takes an average of 3 man-hours to stack 1 ton of a particular item. In order to stack 36 tons in 6 hours, the number of people required is:______.
A) 9
B) 12
C) 15
D) 18
E) 21
Answer:
option (d)
Explanation:
Given,
1 ton of a particular item can be stack in= 3 man-hours
36 ton of a particular item can be stack in= 36 x 3 man-hours
= 108man- hours
Number of hours = 6 hours
Number of people = [tex]\frac{108 \text{man-hours}}{6}[/tex]
= 18
Hence, the number of people required is 18.
Therefore, option (d) is correct.

Vertical displacement of the circus performer is 5 m.
What is Displacement?Displacement is defined as the change in position of an object. It is a vector quantity and has a direction and magnitude.
A circus performer walked up and to the right for a total displacement of 10 m, start to end along a diagonal tightrope angled 30° degree above the ground.
Vertical displacement = 10 sin 30° = 5 m

A guitar player can change the frequency of a string by "bending" it-pushing it along a fret that is perpendicular to its length. This stretches the string, increasing its tension and its frequency. The B string on a guitar is 64 cm long and has a tension of 74 N. The guitarist pushes this string down against a fret located at the center of the string, which gives it a frequency of 494 Hz. He then bends the string, pushing with a force of 4.0 N so that it moves 8.0 mm along the fret.
* What is the new frequency?
Answer:
[tex]f'=504hz[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The B string on a guitar is 64 cm long
The B string tension tension of 74 N.
Frequency of 494 Hz
Pushed with a Force of 4.0 N
It moves 8.0 mm along the fret.
Generally the equation for frequency of ring under tension is mathematically given as
[tex]2Lf=\sqrt{x\frac{T}{\mu} }[/tex]
[tex]2*(64/100)*494=\sqrt{\frac{74}{m/0.64}[/tex]
[tex](632.32)^2={\frac{74}{m/0.64}[/tex]
[tex](632.32)^2=74*{\frac{0.64}{m}[/tex]
[tex](632.32)^2={\frac{47.36}{m}[/tex]
[tex]m=1.18450761*10^-^4[/tex]
Therefore finding the New frequency f'
[tex]f'=\frac{(\sqrt{\frac{74+11}{(\frac{1.18450761*10^-^4}{0.642})}})}{2*0.642}[/tex]
[tex]f'=\frac{(\sqrt{(\frac{74+11}{1})*(\frac{0.642}{1.18450761*10^-^4}})}{2*0.642}[/tex]
[tex]f'=\frac{(\sqrt{(\frac{85}{1})*(\frac{0.642}{1.18450761*10^-^4}})}{2*0.642}[/tex]
[tex]f'=\frac{(\sqrt{(\frac{54.57}{1.18450761*10^-^4}})}{2*0.642}[/tex]
[tex]f'=\frac{678.7471973}{2*0.642}[/tex]
[tex]f'=572.9111096hz[/tex]
Which of the following has the most momentum? proton (m=1.67 x 10-27 kg) moving at 2.0 x 104 m/s,an electron (m=9.11 x 10-31 kg) moving at 2.0 x 106 m/s, a common house fly (m=12 mg) moving at 2.0 m/s, North American tectonic plate (m≈5x1022 kg) moving at 3.0x10-10 m/s (about 1cm/yr)
Answer:
The North American tectonic plate.
Explanation:
recall the formula for momentum: p = m * v
the subatomic particles have very small masses while high speeds, so the product results in values with negative exponents in scientific notation.
Negative exponents also result for the house fly when converting mg into kg (10^-6).
The positive exponents in scientific notation for the momentum come for the gigantic mass of the continental plate which exceeds the negative exponents contributed by the small velocity.
Describe how electric potential energy, kinetic energy, and work change when two charges of opposite sign are placed near each other.
Answer:
As opposites attract, q is pulled to Q. And that force from Q is working on q, force over distance. Which means the potential energy q started with is being converted into kinetic energy. q is accelerating and picking up speed.
