It was a dark and stormy night, when suddenly you saw a flash of lightning. Three-and-a-half seconds later you heard the thunder

. Given that the speed of sound in air is about 340 m/s, how far away was the lightning bolt?

We're going to multiply the time it took for you to hear thunder (3.5 seconds) by the speed of sound in air (340 m/s)

3.5 x 340 = 1190

The lightning bolt was 1,190 meters away.

At room temperature ice will melt while a brass lamp will stay as a solid. This must mean that the melting point of water is ___
UkoKoshka [18]
If solid, cold metal like brass doesn't melt at room temperature like ice does, than the bass can stand much more heat then a ice cube, so it needs to be hotter to melt, so the melting point of ice is lower then brass's melting point

Find the net force and acceleration. 10 points. Will give brainliest.
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

a) 16 N

b) 2.13 m/s²

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the tv stand.  There are four forces:

Weight force mg pulling down,

Normal force N pushing up,

Friction force Nμ pushing left,

and applied force P pulling right.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

The net force in the x direction is:

∑F = P − Nμ

∑F = P − mgμ

∑F = 25 N − (7.5 kg) (10 m/s²) (0.12)

∑F = 16 N

Net force equals mass times acceleration:

∑F = ma

16 N = (7.5 kg) a

a = 2.13 m/s²

An electric field of magnitude 2.35 V/m is oriented at an angle of 25.0° with respect to the positive z-direction. Determine the
zzz [600]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric flux is 3.53\ N-m^2/C

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field = 2.35 V/m

Angle = 25.0°

Area A= 1.65 m^2

We need to calculate the flux

Using formula of the magnetic flux

\phi=E\cdot A

\phi = EA\cos\theta

Where,

A = area

E = electric field

Put the value into the formula

\phi=2.35\times1.65\times\cos 25^{\circ}

\phi=2.35\times1.65\times0.91

\phi=3.53\ N-m^2/C

Hence, The magnitude of the electric flux is 3.53\ N-m^2/C
