The sound wave will have traveled 2565 m farther in water than in air.
Answer:
Explanation:
It is known that distance covered by any object is directly proportional to the velocity of the object and the time taken to cover that distance.
Distance = Velocity × Time.
So if time is kept constant, then the distance covered by a wave can vary depending on the velocity of the wave.
As we can see in the present case, the velocity of sound wave in air is 343 m/s. So in 2.25 s, the sound wave will be able to cover the distance as shown below.
Distance = 343 × 2.25 =771.75 m
And for the sound wave travelling in fresh water, the velocity is given as 1483 m/s. So in a time interval of 2.25 s, the distance can be determined as the product of velocity and time.
Distance = 1483×2.25=3337 m.
Since, the velocity of sound wave travelling in fresh water is greater than the sound wave travelling in air, the distance traveled by sound wave in fresh water will be greater.
Difference in distance covered in water and air = 3337-772 m = 2565 m
So the sound wave will have traveled 2565 m farther in water than in air.
Answer:
v= 4055.08m/s
Explanation:
This is a problem that must be addressed through the laws of classical mechanics that concern Potential Gravitational Energy.
We know for definition that,
We must find the highest point and the lowest point to identify the change in energy, so
Point a)
The problem tells us that an object is dropped at a distance of h = 1.15134R over the earth.
That is to say that the energy of that object is equal to,
Point B )
We now use the average radius distance from the earth.
Then,
By the law of conservation of energy we know that,
clearing v,
Therefore the speed of the object when it strikes the Earth’s surface is 4055.08m/s
