A bat emitts a sonar sound wave (343 m/s) that bounces off a mosquito 8.42 m away

The time lapse between when the bat emits the sound and when it hears the echo is 0.05 s.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Velocity of sound (v) = 343 m/s

Distance (x) = 8.42 m

Time (t) =?

We can obtain obtained the time as illustrated below:

v = 2x / t

343 = 2 × 8.42 / t

343 = 16.84 / t

Cross multiply

343 ×  t = 16.84

Divide both side by 343

t = 16.84/343

t = 0.05 s

Thus, the time between  when the bat emits the sound and when it hears the echo is 0.05 s.

<h3>How does a bat know how far away something is?</h3>

A bat emits a sound wave and carefully listens to the echoes that return to it. The returning information is processed by the bat's brain in the same way that we processed our shouting sound with a stopwatch and calculator. The bat's brain determines the distance of an object by measuring how long it takes for a noise to return.

A wire that is 0.65 m long and carrying a current of 8.2 A is at right angles to a uniform magnetic field. The force on the wire
Luda [366]

Answer:

0.075 T

Explanation:

When a current-carrying wire is immersed in a region with magnetic field, the wire experiences a force, given by

F=ILB sin \theta

where

I is the current in the wire

L is the length of the wire

B is the strength of the magnetic field

\theta is the angle between the direction of I and B

In this problem we have:

L = 0.65 m is the length of the wire

I = 8.2 A is the current in the wire

F = 0.40 N is the force experienced by the wire

\theta=90^{\circ} since the current is at right angle with the magnetic field

Solving the formula for B, we find the strength of the magnetic field:

B=\frac{F}{IL sin \theta}=\frac{0.40}{(8.2)(0.65)(sin 90^{\circ})}=0.075 T

What determines who is the most important person
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Putting your partner first means his or her needs, feelings, and wellbeing take priority over other people or things. A “sense of we” forms as you maintain this priority on purpose each day. You protect your relationship from being destroyed or damaged. You tend to your connection so it feels good to you b

A 6- F capacitor is charged to 90 V and is then connected across a 700- resistor. What is the initial charge on the capacitor
Lorico [155]

Answer:

540C.

Explanation:

A capacitor of capacitance C when charged to a voltage of V will have a charge Q given as follows;

Q = CV          ----------(i)

From the question, the initial charge on the capacitor is the charge on it before it was connected to the resistor. In other words, the initial charge on the capacitor will have a maximum value which can be calculated using equation (i) above.

Where;

C = 6F

V = 90V

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

Q = 6 x 90

Q = 540 C

Therefore, the initial charge on the capacitor is 540C.
