I believe you square both numbers and take the square root. √34^2+14^2= so it would be 36.77

Levart [38]

<span>The apartment’s explosion, reportedly caused by a gas leak, produced a violent release of gas and heat. the heat increased the temperature of the air in the room, which means an increase in the air's molecular kinetic energy.

When heat leaves a system, that energy is transferred to its surroundings. Since the air is the surroundings, the heat is transferred to the air increasing the temperature. This causes an increase in the individual air molecules' energy.</span>

Why is velocity and not just speed important to these pilots

Alborosie

Velocity is a vector. Therefore, it depends on the direction. Pilots need to know the direction of wind, not just the speed. If the pilot is going South, and there's 5 mph wind going South, they'll be happy, but if the wind is going 5 mph North, they'll be going against the wind.

You yell into a canyon. You hear the echo in 3 seconds. How long did the sound of your voice travel before bouncing off a cliff?

Lilit [14]

Answer:

The sound travelled 516 meters before bouncing off a cliff.

Explanation:

The sound is an example of mechanical wave, which means that it needs a medium to propagate itself at constant speed. The time needed to hear the echo is equal to twice the height of the canyon divided by the velocity of sound. In addition, the speed of sound through the air at a temperature of 20 ºC is approximately 344 meters per second. Then, the height of the canyon can be derived from the following kinematic formula:

$2\cdot h = v\cdot t$ (1)

Where:

$h$ - Height, measured in meters.

$v$ - Velocity of sound, measured in meters per second.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

If we know that $v = 344\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $t = 3\,s$ , then the height of the canyon is:

$h = \frac{v\cdot t}{2}$

$h = \frac{\left(344\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (3\,s)}{2}$

$h = 516\,m$

The sound travelled 516 meters before bouncing off a cliff.

If a cell phone is dropped from a very tall building, how far has the phone fallen after 2.7 seconds, neglecting air resistance?

Zielflug [23.3K]

The free fall of the phone is an uniformly accelerated motion toward the ground, with constant acceleration equal to
$g=9.81 m/s^2$

So, assuming the downward direction as positive direction of the motion, since the phone starts from rest the distance covered by the phone after a time t is given by
$y(t) = \frac{1}{2}gt^2$
And if we substitute t=2.7 s, we find the distance covered:
$y(t)= \frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(2.7 s)^2=35.8 m$
