Sound waves move from air to water

AI Thread Summary
Sound waves transition from air to water, where the denser medium affects their speed, frequency, and wavelength due to limited momentum transfer. The density and elastic modulus of the medium play crucial roles in determining these sound properties. In winter, strong winds can amplify low-frequency sounds, as the wind influences sound wave propagation, causing variations in intensity and clarity. Turbulence created by wind can further distort sound waves, impacting how they are perceived. Understanding these dynamics is essential for comprehending sound behavior in different environments.

Please elaborate. The English is not clear.

Sound waves move from air to water. Discussed the impact on
The frequency and speed and Wavelength
Water is denser than air. The coupling is poor since the momentum transfer is limited by the difference in density. What is the impact of density (and bulk or elastic modulus) on frequency and speed of sound?

In winter, we hear voices strong voices low because of strong winds.
What happens to the sound waves moving with and against wind? What is the effect of turbulence?
 

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
