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.

A meter stick balances at the 50.0-cm mark. If a mass of 50.0 g is placed at the 90.0-cm mark, the stick balances at the 61.3-cm
Airida [17]

Answer:

126.99115 g

Explanation:

50 g at 90 cm

Stick balances at 61.3 cm

x = Distance of the third 0.6 kg mass

Meter stick hanging at 50 cm

Torque about the support point is given by (torque is conserved)

mgl_1=Mgl_2\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{ml_1}{l_2}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{50\times (61.3-90)}{50-61.3}\\\Rightarrow M=126.99115\ g

The mass of the meter stick is 126.99115 g

A clay ball with a mass of 0.48kg has an initial speed of 4.08m/s it strikes a 3.04kg clay ball at rest and the two balls stick
Rom4ik [11]
Final velocity = 0, thus final kinetic energy is 0
Initial kinetic energy:
0.5mv²
= 0.5 x 0.48 x 4.08²
= 4.0 J
Decrease in kinetic energy = 4 - 0 = 4 Joules
