31 points come an get it ppl!

if a satellite or spaceship explodes in outer space, you can see the explosion from a distance but you cannot hear it. why?

a)
light waves travel very fast and sound waves travel much slower.

b)
sound waves transmit energy while light does not transmit energy.

c)
sound is a mechanical wave and needs a medium to travel through while light is an electromagnetic wave.

d)
light is a mechanical wave and needs a medium to travel through while sound is an electromagnetic wave

Acar travels along a highway with a velocity of 24 m/s, west. the car exits the highway; and 4.0 s later, its instantaneous velocity is 16 m/s, 45° north of west. what is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the car during the four-second interval?

Asubmarine has a "crush depth" (that is, the depth at which water pressure will crush the submarine) of 250 m. what is the approximate pressure (water plus atmospheric) at this depth? (recall that the density of seawater is 1025 kg/m3, g = 9.81 m/s2, and 1 kg/(ms2) = 1 pa = 9.8692 10-6 atm.) a. 34.8 atm b. 24.8 atm c. 25.8 atm d. 7.8 atm

Search coils and credit cards. one practical way to measure magnetic field strength uses a small, closely wound coil called a search coil. the coil is initially held with its plane perpendicular to a magnetic field. the coil is then either quickly rotated a quarter-turn about a diameter or quickly pulled out of the field. (a) derive the equation relating the total charge q that flows through a search coil to the magnetic-field magnitude b. the search coil has n turns, each with area a, and the flux through the coil is decreased from its initial maximum value to zero in a time ∆t. the resistance of the coil is r, and the total charge is q = i∆t, where i is the average current induced by the change in flux. (b) in a credit card reader, the magnetic strip on the back of a credit card is rapidly “swiped” past a coil within the reader. explain, using the same ideas that underlie the operation of a search coil, how the reader can decode the information stored in the pattern of magnetization on the strip. (c) is it necessary that the credit card be “swiped” through the reader at exactly the right speed? why or why not?
