It will take you 0.23 seconds to hear your echo

<h3>What is Echo ?</h3>

Echo can be simply defined as the reflection of sound wave.

Given that you are 38.6 m away from a rock wall, you yell. To know how much time in seconds it will take you to hear your echo to two significant digits, You must make sure to account for the travel from you to the wall and from the wall back to you.

  • The speed of sound V = 340 m/s
  • The distance D to and fro = 2 x 38.6 = 77.2 m
  • The time taken T = ?

Speed V is the distance per time

V = D / T

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

340 = 77.2 / T

Make T the subject of formula

T = 77.2 / 340

T = 0.2270

T = 0.23 s to two significant digits

Therefore, it will take you 0.23 seconds to hear your echo.

An aluminum wire having a cross-sectional area equal to 2.20 10-6 m2 carries a current of 4.50 A. The density of aluminum is 2.7
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The drift speed of the electrons in the wire is 2.12x10⁻⁴ m/s.

Explanation:

We can find the drift speed by using the following equation:

v = \frac{I}{nqA}

Where:

I: is the current = 4.50 A

n: is the number of electrons

q: is the modulus of the electron's charge = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C

A: is the cross-sectional area = 2.20x10⁻⁶ m²

We need to find the number of electrons:

n = \frac{6.022\cdot 10^{23} atoms}{1 mol}*\frac{1 mol}{26.982 g}*\frac{2.70 g}{1 cm^{3}}*\frac{(100 cm)^{3}}{1 m^{3}} = 6.03 \cdot 10^{28} atom/m^{3}                  

Now, we can find the drift speed:

v = \frac{I}{nqA} = \frac{4.50 A}{6.03 \cdot 10^{28} atom/m^{3}*1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C*2.20 \cdot 10^{-6} m^{2}} = 2.12 \cdot 10^{-4} m/s              

Therefore, the drift speed of the electrons in the wire is 2.12x10⁻⁴ m/s.

I hope it helps you!

3. Sailors use a capstan (shown below) to raise and lower the anchor. It takes two sailors located 1 meter from the center to tu
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

B. 2 meters.

Explanation:

To rotate the capstan a certain amount of torque is required, and if each sailor applies a force F at a distance D from the center, then for two sailors the total torque will be

\tau = 2FD\\;

therefore,  for one sailor to apply the same torque it must be that the torque \tau_2 he applies must be equal to the torque that the two sailors applied:

FD_2 =2FD

which gives

D_2 = 2D.

and since D = 1\:meter,

\boxed{D_2 = 2\: meters}

which is choice B.

4. A 62.0-kg person, standing on the diving board, dives straight down into the water. Just before striking the water, her speed
Alekssandra [29.7K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Moment. The moment in terms of the Force and the time can be expressed as

\Delta P = F\Delta t

F = Force

\Delta t = Time

At the same time the moment can be expressed in terms of mass and velocity, mathematically it can be given as

P = m \Delta v

Where

m = Mass

\Delta v = Change in velocity

Our values are given as

\Delta t=1.65s

By equating the two equations we can find the Force,

F\Delta t = m\Delta v

F = \frac{m\Delta v}{\Delta t}

F = \frac{62(1.1-5.5)}{1.65}

Therefore, the net average force will be:

F = - 165N

The negative symbol indicates that the direction of the force is upwards.
