Answer:

s = 30330.7 m = 30.33 km

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the speed of sound at the given temperature. For this purpose we use the following formula:

v = v₀√[T/273 k]

where,

v = speed of sound at given temperature = ?

v₀ = speed of sound at 0°C = 331 m/s

T = Given Temperature = 10°C + 273 = 283 k

Therefore,

v = (331 m/s)√[283 k/273 k]

v = 337 m/s

Now, we use the following formula to calculate the distance traveled by sound:

s = vt

where,

s = distance traveled = ?

t = time taken = 90 s

Therefore,

s = (337 m/s)(90 s)

Answer:

-5.1 kg m/s

Explanation:

Impulse is the change in momentum.

Change in momentum= final momentum - initial momentum=m $v_{2}$ +m $v_{1}$

Plugging in the values= -0.15*24 - (0.15*10) (The motion towards the pitcher is negative as the initial motion is considered to be positive)

Impulse=-5.1 kg m/s (-ve means that it is the impulse towards the pitcher)

In a light wave, what properties tell you the color of light

sesenic [268]

Answer:

Answer :- In a light wave the property of wave which tells about the color of light is it's Wavelength .

Wavelength is the distance between one crest and one through , also it is the distance after which the wave repeat itself !

It's SI unit is meter !

It is scalar quantity !!

Different Wavelength of light have different color !!

• VIBGYOR

i.e, Violent , Indigo , Blue , Green , Yellow Orange, and Red along with their shades are the colors which we can see !!

• They almost range from 400nm to 700nm ( visible range of light ) !!

A wooden block with mass 1.60 kg is placed against a compressed spring at the bottom of a slope inclined at an angle of 30.0° (p

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

The amount of potential energy that was initially stored in the spring is 88.8 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block = 1.60 kg

Angle = 30.0°

Distance = 6.55 m

Speed = 7.50 m/s

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.50

We need to calculate the amount of potential energy

Using formula of conservation of energy between point A and B

$U_{A}+k_{A}+w_{A}=U_{B}+k_{B}$

$U_{A}+0-fd=mgy+\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$U_{A}=\mu mg\cos\theta\times d+mg h\sin\theta+\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Put the value into the formula

$U_{A}=0.50\times1.60\times9.8\cos30\times6.55+1.60\times9.8\times6.55\sin30+\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.60\times(7.50)^2$

$U_{A}=88.8\ J$

Hence, The amount of potential energy that was initially stored in the spring is 88.8 J.

A cell phone weighing 80 grams is flying through the air at 15 m/s. What is its kinetic energy

Contact [7]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the cell phone is 9J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of motion.

The kinetic energy is expressed as

KE= 1/2m(v)²

Given data

Mass of cell phone m= 80g--to kg=80/1000= 0.08kg

Velocity of cell phone v= 15m/s

Substituting our given data we have

KE= 1/2*0.08(15)²

KE= (0.08*225)/2

KE=18/2

KE= 9J
