A soccer player kicks a rock horizontally off a 37 m high cliff into a pool of water. If the player hears the sound of the splas

Alchen [17]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em><u>(a). 16.741 m/s</u></em>

<em><u>(b). 15.75 m/s</u></em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In the question,

Height of the cliff, h = 37 m

Time taken to reach the sound to us = 2.92 s

Speed of the sound in air at room temperature = 343 m/s

Now,

Let us say the speed of the ball = u m/s

So,

Time taken by the ball to reach at the bottom, t is given by,

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 37}{9.8}}\\t=2.747\,s$

So,

Splash is heard after = 2.92 s

So,

<u>Time taken by sound to travel the shortest distance along the hypotenuse of the triangle</u> thus formed is,

t = 2.92 - 2.747

t = 0.172 s

Now,

Distance traveled by sound is given by,

$Distance=343\times 0.172\\Distance=59.02\,m$

So,

In the triangle using the Pythagoras Theorem,

Horizontal distance traveled is,

$D=\sqrt{59.02^{2}-37^{2}}\\D=45.99\,m$

So,

Speed of throwing of ball is given by,

$Distance=Speed\times Time\\45.99=u\times 2.747\\u=16.741\,m/s$

<em><u>Therefore, the speed of the ball = 16.741 m/s.</u></em>

(b).

If,

Speed of sound = 331 m/s

So,

<u>Distance traveled by sound</u> is,

$Distance=331\times 0.172\\Distance=56.932\,m$

So,

Distance traveled in the horizontal by ball is,

$Distance=\sqrt{56.932^{2}-37^{2}}\\Distance=43.269\,m$

So,

Speed of the ball thrown is given by,

$Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\Speed=\frac{43.269}{2.747}\\Speed=15.75\,m/s$

<em><u>Therefore, the speed of the ball = 15.75 m/s.</u></em>

An astronaut working with many tools some distance away from a spacecraft is stranded when the "maneuvering unit" malfunctions.

N76 [4]

Answer:

He can return to the spacecraft by sacrificing some of the tools employing the principle of conservation of momentum.

Explanation:

By carefully evaluating his direction back to the ship, the astronaut can throw some of his tools in the opposite direction to that. On throwing those tools of a certain mass, they travel at a certain velocity giving him velocity in the form of recoil in the opposite direction of the velocity of the tools. This is same as a gun and bullet recoil momentum conservation. It is also the principle on which the operational principles of their maneuvering unit is designed.

Alfredo makes a diagram to organize his notes about charging objects.

konstantin123 [22]

The region marked X in the diagram shows that the objects have the same charge.

<h3>What is conduction?</h3>

The term conduction has to do with the manner of charging in which charge is passed from one object to another. Induction involves charging objects without the objects touching each other.
