Distance of d object frm submarine = 3625m
time taken = 5/2

then speed = 3625/5/2. (speed = distance /time)
=> 1450m/s

speed = distance \div time
Since the sound travels from the submarine to the object AND back, it actually travelled 3625x2=7250m.

7250 \div 5 = 1450
Speed of sound: 1450m/s

A long wire carries a current density proportional to the distance from its center, J=(Jo/ro)•r, where Jo and ro are constants a
IgorC [24]

Answer:

B = \mu_0(\frac{1}{3} \frac{J_0}{r_0} r^2)

Explanation:

As the current density is given as

J = \frac{J_0}{r_0}r

now we have current inside wire given as

i = \int J(2\pi r)dr

i = \int \frac{J_0}{r_0} r(2\pi r)dr

i = 2\pi \frac{J_0}{r_0} \int r^2 dr

i = \frac{2}{3} \pi \frac{J_0}{r_0} r^3

Now by Ampere's law we will have

\int B. dl = \mu_0 i

B. (2\pi r) = \mu_0(\frac{2}{3} \pi \frac{J_0}{r_0} r^3)

B = \mu_0(\frac{1}{3} \frac{J_0}{r_0} r^2)

In order to walk barefoot on hot coals without hurting your feet
siniylev [52]

Before a person walks through burning coal, the person will make sure their feet are very wet. When they start walking on the coal, this moisture will evaporate and form a protective gas layer underneath the person's feet. You can see examples of this if you happen to drip some water on a hot stove or any very hot surface. The water will very easily glide around on top of a newly formed layer of air underneath it -- like air hockey pucks on an air hockey table. Note that when someone walks through burning coal, typically this is also done very quickly to prevent a great deal of exposure to possible harm. By walking quickly, thinking positively, and letting the water cushion you from immediate danger over a short distance, such a task is possible. You may have also heard of physics teachers demonstrating how this principle works by sticking their hand first in a bucket of water and then quickly in a bucket of boiling molten lead. In the lead, their hand is protected briefly by a layer of gas from the evaporated water (the water vapor). I'm fairly sure that there is a name for this particular layer of gas, but I'm afraid the name is beyond me at the moment. In other words, water vapor has a low heat capacity and poor thermal conduction. Very often, the coals or wood embers that are used in fire walking also have a low heat capacity. Sweat produced on the bottom of people's feet also helps form a protective water vapor. All of this together makes it possible, if moving quickly enough, to walk across hot coals without getting burned. WARNING: Do not attempt to perform any of the actions described above. You can seriously injure yourself. Answered by: Ted Pavlic, Electrical Engineering Undergrad Student, Ohio St.  (citing my source)

A freight train has a mass of [02] kg. The wheels of the locomotive push back on the tracks with a constant net force of 7.50 ×
otez555 [7]

Answer:

t = 300.3 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a freight train, m=1.01\times 10^7\ kg

Force applied on the tracks, F=7.5\times 10^5\ N

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 80 km/h = 22.3 m/s

We need to find the time taken by it to increase the speed of the train from rest.

The force acting on it is given by :

F = ma

or

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{F}\\\\t=\dfrac{1.01\times 10^7\times (22.3-0)}{7.5\times 10^5}\\\\t=300.3\ s

So, the required time is 300.3 seconds.
