In an experiment, the speed of sound waves was compared to the density of the medium they passed through. Using the information in the data table below, describe the relationship between the density of the material and the speed of the sound waves. Explain why the relationship between the two exists, and hypothesize the relationship that light waves would have with the density of the materials
medium density(g/ml)speed(m/s)
copper -8.9 6420
steel 7.86 5940
water 1 1496
ethanol=0.79--- 1207
air 0.00139 331.45

Sawyer is studying diffraction. he draws a diagram of a plane wave to show how light waves travel. which best describes sawyer’s error? the wave fronts should be perpendicular to the direction in which the waves move. the arrow showing the direction of movement of the waves should be pointing to the left. the arrow showing the direction of movement of the waves should be pointing downward. the wave fronts should be both parallel and perpendicular to the direction in which the waves move.

If a rock is thrown upward on the planet mars with a velocity of 12 m/s, its height (in meters) after t seconds is given by h = 12t − 1.86t2. (a) find the velocity of the rock after two seconds. m/s (b) find the velocity of the rock when t = a. 12−3.72a m/s (c) when will the rock hit the surface? (round your answer to one decimal place.) t = s (d) with what velocity will the rock hit the surface? m/s
