Can someone please help, I'm so confused. What are the velocities of sound waves in air, helium, and carbon dioxide? Show your data. Which was the fastest? Why do sound waves travel at different speeds in each gas? Explain. Note that the values for helium will be incomplete in these frequency ranges.

Ateam of astronauts is on a mission to land on and explore a large asteroid. in addition to collecting samples and performing experiments, one of their tasks is to demonstrate the concept of the escape speed by throwing rocks straight up at various initial speeds. with what minimum initial speed vesc will the rocks need to be thrown in order for them never to "fall" back to the asteroid? assume that the asteroid is approximately spherical, with an average density p 3.84 x108 g/m3 and volume v 2.17 x 1012 m3 recall that the universal gravitational constant is g 6.67 x 10-11 n m2/kg2

If 21.2 kcals of energy is released by this reaction, how many kj does the reaction release? (1 cal 4.184 j)

5g of ammonium nitrate was dissolved in 60g of water in an insulated container. the temperature at the start of the reaction was 23.0°c and at the end it was 19.0°c. calculate the energy absorbed by the reaction.
