The echo is heard 2.80 s later, this means this is the time the sound takes to travel to the reflecting object and then back to us. So, during this time, the sound wave has covered the distance L between us and the object twice:
S=2L
The speed of the sound wave is: v=343 m/s, and since it is moving by uniform motion, we can find the distance covered by the wave using
S=vt=(343 m/s)(2.80 s)=960 m
And we said this corresponds to twice the distance between us and the reflecting object, so:
L= \frac{S}{2} = \frac{960 m}{2} =480 m
so, the object is 480 meters away.

1. A plane travels a distance of 500
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Option C, 139 m/s

Explanation:

s = d/t

s = 500*10^3/3600

s = 138.8 = 139 m/s

Acceleration = final velocity - inital / time
a = 75-10 / 7
a = 65 / 7
a = 9.29 m/s^2

John realized that his orchard has been invaded by certain harmful invasive plants. These plants are consuming all the soil nutr
Dovator [93]
John used smothering as the method to control the harmful invasive plants in his orchard. Smothering is an example of a manual method of control and it works best in a small population of invasive species. Smothering involves covering the invasive species with a barrier that is highly impenetrable for one growing season in order to prevent these species from thriving in the environment.

Un lector de DVD, la velocidad de giro es de 5400 rpm. determina el valor velocidad angular en rad/s,la frecuencia y el periodo
zubka84 [21]

Responder:

A) ω = 565.56 rad / seg

B) f = 90Hz

C) 0.011111s

Explicación:

Dado que:

Velocidad = 5400 rpm (revolución por minuto)

La velocidad angular (ω) = 2πf

Donde f = frecuencia

ω = 5400 rev / minuto

1 minuto = 60 segundos

2πrad = I revolución

Por lo tanto,

ω = 5400 * (rev / min) * (1 min / 60s) * (2πrad / 1 rev)

ω = (5400 * 2πrad) / 60 s

ω = 10800πrad / 60 s

ω = 180πrad / seg

ω = 565.56 rad / seg

SI)

Dado que :

ω = 2πf

donde f = frecuencia, ω = velocidad angular en rad / s

f = ω / 2π

f = 565.56 / 2π

f = 90.011669

f = 90 Hz

C) Periodo (T)

Recordar T = 1 / f

Por lo tanto,

T = 1/90

T = 0.0111111s
