Textbook Question
Chapter 26, Problem 1A
What is the source of all sounds?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The sources of all sounds.
Answer to Problem 1A
The source of sound is all materials such as solid , liquid & gas.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction: Sound is a vibration that increases or propagates as an acoustic wave, through a transmission medium .The medium may be solid, liquid & gas.
The sound is a form of energy that spreads through out space. It will originate from the vibration in the materials object. The sound can be carried through the air , water & solid particles.
The sources of sound may be of two types natural & man- made sources .
Conclusion: The sound is form of energy and can be produced through any medium solid , liquid or air.

- No chatgpt pls will upvotearrow_forwardYou are working with a team that is designing a new roller coaster-type amusement park ride for a major theme park. You are present for the testing of the ride, in which an empty 150 kg car is sent along the entire ride. Near the end of the ride, the car is at near rest at the top of a 100 m tall track. It then enters a final section, rolling down an undulating hill to ground level. The total length of track for this final section from the top to the ground is 250 m. For the first 230 m, a constant friction force of 370 N acts from computer-controlled brakes. For the last 20 m, which is horizontal at ground level, the computer increases the friction force to a value required for the speed to be reduced to zero just as the car arrives at the point on the track at which the passengers exit. (a) Determine the required constant friction force (in N) for the last 20 m for the empty test car. Write AK + AU + AE int = W+Q + TMW + TMT + TET + TER for the car-track-Earth system and solve for…arrow_forward= 12 kg, and m3 Three objects with masses m₁ = 3.8 kg, m₂ find the speed of m3 after it moves down 4.0 m. m/s 19 kg, respectively, are attached by strings over frictionless pulleys as indicated in the figure below.
