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

3) A driver in a 1000-kg car traveling at 24 m/s slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. If the coefticient of friction between
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

A) 37 m

Explanation:

The car is moving of uniformly accelerated motion, so the distance it covers can be calculated by using the following SUVAT equation:

v^2 -u^2 = 2ad (1)

where

v = 0 m/s is the final velocity of the car

u = 24 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

d is the length of the skid

We need to find the acceleration first. We know that the force responsible for the (de)celeration is the force of friction, so:

F=ma=-\mu mg

where

m = 1000 kg is the mass of the car

\mu = 0.80 is the coefficient of friction

a is the deceleration of the car

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

The negative sign is due to the fact that the force of friction is against the motion of the car, so the sign of the acceleration will be negative because the car is slowing down. From this equation, we find:

a=-\mu g

And we can substitute it into eq.(1) to find d:

v^2 -u^2 = 2(\-mu g) d\\d= \frac{v^2-u^2}{-2 \mu g}=\frac{0-(24 m/s)^2}{-2(0.80)(9.8 m/s^2)}=36.7 m \sim 37 m

A physical quantity is defined as mass per uint volume .what is its si unit.​
Artist 52 [7]
A physical quantity is defined as mass per uint volume .what is its si unit.


A physical quantity is a property of a material or system that can be quantified by measurement. A physical quantity can be expressed as the combination of a numerical value and a unit. For example, the physical quantity mass can be quantified as n kg, where n is the numerical value and kg is the unit. A physical quantity possesses at least two characteristics in common, one is numerical magnitude and other is the unit in which it is measured.
