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 car is being driven at a rate of 60 ft/sec when the brakes are applied. The car decelerates at a constant rate of 19
Hunter-Best [27]

The car will take 300 m before it stops due to applying break.

<h3>What's the relation between initial velocity, final velocity, acceleration and distance?</h3>
  • As per Newton's equation of motion, V² - U² = 2aS
  • V= final velocity velocity of the object, U = initial velocity velocity of the object, a= acceleration, S = distance covered by the object
  • Here, U = 60 ft/sec, V = 0 m/s, a= -6 ft/sec²
  • So, 0² - 60² = 2×6× S

=> -3600 = -12S

=> S = 3600/12 = 300 m

Thus, we can conclude that the distance covered by the car is 300 m before it stopped.

A bicyclist of mass 112 kg rides in a circle at a speed of 8.9 m/s. If the radius of the circle is 15.5 m, what is the centripet
kogti [31]
The centripetal force, Fc, is calculated through the equation, 
                                    Fc = mv²/r
where m is the mass,v is the velocity, and r is the radius. 
Substituting the known values,
                                     Fc = (112 kg)(8.9 m/s)² / (15.5 m)
                                         = 572.36 N
Therefore, the centripetal force of the bicyclist is approximately 572.36 N.

A 24.7-g bullet is fired from a rifle. It takes 2.73 × 10-3 s for the bullet to travel the length of the barrel, and it exits th
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

F_a_v_g=7093333.33N*s

Explanation:

The impulse or average force in classical mechanics is the variation in the linear momentum that a physical object experiences in a closed system. It is defined by the following equation:

F_a_v_g=m*\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}=m*\frac{v_2-v_1}{t_2-t_1}

Where:

m=mass\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}object

v_2=final\hspace{3}velocity\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}object\hspace{3}at\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}end\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}time\hspace{3}interval

v_1=initial\hspace{3}velocity\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}object\hspace{3}when\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}time\hspace{3}interval\hspace{3}begins.

t_2=final\hspace{3}time

t_1=initial\hspace{3}time

Asumming v1=0 and t1=0:

F_a_v_g=m* \frac{v_2}{t_2} =(24.7)*\frac{784}{2.73*10^{*3} } =7093333.333N*s

A 200kg ball on the end of string is swung in horizontal circle with radius of 0.5m . The ball makes revolution every 2second th
ANEK [815]

Answer:\dfrac{\pi}{2} ms^{-1}

Explanation:

Let T be the time required to make one revolution.

Let r be the radius of the circular path.

Let d be the distance travelled by ball in one revolution.

As we know,the distance travelled in one revolution is the circumference of the circle.

So,d=2\pi r

Given,d=0.5m\\T=2sec

d=2\times \pi \times 0.5=\pi m

Speed of an object moving is circular path is define as the ratio of distance travelled in one revolution to the time taken by the object to complete one revolution.

Let s be the speed of the ball.

s=\frac{d}{T}=\frac{\pi }{2}ms^{-1}

So,the speed of the ball is \frac{\pi }{2}ms^{-1}
