A certain instant camera determines the distance to the subject by sending out a sound wave and measuring the time needed for th

e wave echo to return to the camera. how long would it take the sound wave to return to the camera if the subject were 3.42 m away? the speed of sound is 343 m/s. answer in units of s.

The total distance covered by the sound wave is twice the distance between the camera and the subject (because the wave has to reach the subject and then travel back to the camera), so 2L, where L=3.42 m. The speed of sound is v=343 m/s. It is a uniform linear motion, so we can use the basic relationship between space (S), time (t) and velocity (v) to find the time the wave needs to return to the camera:
t= \frac{S}{v}= \frac{2L}{v}= \frac{2\cdot 3.42 m}{343 m/s}=0.020 s

A small ball of mass 2.00 kilograms is moving at a velocity 1.50 meters/second. It hits a larger, stationary ball of mass 5.00 k
rewona [7]

The kinetic energy of the small ball before the collision is

                             KE  =  (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

                                     = (1/2) (2 kg) (1.5 m/s)

                                     =    (1 kg)  (2.25 m²/s²)

                                     =        2.25 joules.

Now is a good time to review the Law of Conservation of Energy:

                     Energy is never created or destroyed. 
                     If it seems that some energy disappeared,
                     it actually had to go somewhere.
                     And if it seems like some energy magically appeared,
                     it actually had to come from somewhere.

The small ball has 2.25 joules of kinetic energy before the collision.
If the small ball doesn't have a jet engine on it or a hamster inside,
and does not stop briefly to eat spinach, then there won't be any
more kinetic energy than that after the collision.  The large ball
and the small ball will just have to share the same 2.25 joules.

A charge of 4.5 × 10-5 C is placed in an electric field with a strength of 2.0 × 104 . If the charge is 0.030 m from the source
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

The electrical potential energy is 0.027 Joules.

Explanation:

The values from the question are

charge (q) = 4.5 \times 10^{-5} C

Electric Field strength (E) = 2.0 \times 10^{4} N/C

Distance from source (d) = 0.030 m

Now the formula for the electrical potential energy (U) is given by

U = q \times E \times d

So now insert the values to find the answer

U = 4.5 \times 10^{-5} C \times 2.0 \times 10^{4} N/C \times 0.030 m

On further solving

U = 0.027 J

How does temperature increase?
vovikov84 [41]
Increasing the temperature increases reaction rates because of the disproportionately increase in the number of high energy collisions.
It's only these collisions (possessing at least the activation energy for the reaction)
which results in a reaction!
