Does temperature affect elastic?
Yes, it does. In a hot environment, the elastic becomes looser and slightly more rougher in a colder environment.
Properties of matter affect inertia?
Mass affects the properties of inertia
Does the size of a bouncing ball affect how high a ball will bounce when dropped from the same height?
It does not.It will depend entirely on the elastic properties of the ball itself, in the following ways:1. elastic properties due solely to the way the ball is constructed, like a basketball, which is a bladder holding pressurized air.2. elastic properties of the materials used in its construction. The leather in a basketball, the weird plastic compounds used in a golf-ball, (among the bounciest of balls, by the way, and pretty small) etc.Every (solid) material known has a measurable "modulus of elasticity" which dictates how stretchy (or bouncy) the material is.Using this modulus, among other data, a decent math-person could calculate in advance how high ANY ball would likely bounce, before it was ever done.Also, the surface that is being bounced on has much to do with this; I'm guessing that a standard bowling-ball would bounce higher than a basketball, if dropped onto a surface comprised of solid, hard steel that was 4 feet thick.For that matter, ball bearings (very hard steel) are super-bouncy- they can bounce really high, if dropped onto a very hard, massive surface.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Does the material of a parachute affect how it falls?
yes it does
How does a parachute's material affect the speed at which it falls?
it will start to change as the material gets thicker
What factors affect the amount of destruction caused by earthquake vibrations?
the building designs,the distance from the epicenter,and the type of surface material (rock or dirt) the buildings rest on
What are the three major factors that affect the properties that a material will have?
1) temperature 2)strenth 3)friction 4)rigidity
What factors decide the frequency of vibrations of a plucked string?
The four properties of the string that affect its frequency are length, diameter, tension and density. These properties are- When the length of a string is changed, it will vibrate with a different frequency. Shorter strings have higher frequency and therefore higher pitch.
Does wetting a j cloth affect its insulating properties?
Yes, whether thermal insulation or electrical insulation, replacing air with water in the voids of a material will affect its insulating abilities.
Does temperature affect elastic?
Yes, it does. In a hot environment, the elastic becomes looser and slightly more rougher in a colder environment.
How do sound vibrations affect structures in the ear to produce the sensation of the hearing?
energy
How does combining elements into compounds affect their properties?
The properties of the compound will differ from the properties of the elements of which it is made.
Properties of matter affect inertia?
Mass affects the properties of inertia
Does music affect non living things?
No, unless vibrations by sound will break items.
What three properties of a medium affect the speed of sound?
Short Answer:The speed of a sound wave depends on two properties of a medium, density and elasticity. Changes in temperature and pressure affect these properties and, of course, a change in the chemical or physical composition of a material affects these properties.Long Answer:Specifically, for basically all substances, the speed of sound equals the square root of the ratio of the elastic constant divided by the density.Solids, for instance, generally become less elastic, i.e. the elastic constant gets larger, as temperature is lowered, so the speed of sound should increase.In air and most gasses, the speed of sound depends on the temperature and not much else (i.e. not pressure) because the density and elasticity change in ways that compensate and leave the speed unchanged.There are different kinds of sound waves. The usual simple longitudinal (compression) waves that we are familiar with as sound detected by our ear are what we usually mean by the word sound, but there are also transverse matter vibrations also called shear waves. Earthquakes provide an example of both types of these wave, but actually any solid material can have both shear and compression waves. The rules, ratio of elastic constant to density, are true for both types of waves.The speed of a wave can depend on the frequency, but this is generally a small effect for sounds in the range of the human ear. (This is called dispersion.)We understand this phenomenon by saying that the elastic constant depends on frequency or wavelength. Explaining the cause of that would be a whole different answer to a different question. (See related questions link.)As an example of change due to chemical composition, it is well known that humid air propagates sound differently than dry air, but this is basically because it changes the density of air.An example of a material change that is obvious is the freezing of water. At zero degrees centigrade, water can be either liquid or solid. The two forms propagate sound very differently.Caveat: This is true for gasses, solids and liquids, but for peculiar things like plasmas it may be different.
