A submarine is 58.8 m from a whale. The sub sends out a sonar ping to locate the whale. The speed of sound underwater is 1520 m/

Answer:

0.08

Explanation:

this problem assume that both of whale and submarine are in rest position or in constant linier motion in same direction and same speed.

The sound will travel from Submarine to the whale and back again to submarine. so the time will be like this

t = 2d/v

t = 2*58.8/1520

t = 117.6/1520

t = 0.077368 s

t ≈ 0.08 s (less then 1 s)

The voltage between two parallel plates separated by a distance of 3. 0 cm is 120 v. The electric field between the plates is?
Lapatulllka [165]

The electric field between plates is 4000V/m.

An electric field (sometimes E-field) is the physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and exerts force on all other charged particles in the field, either attracting or repelling them. It also refers to the physical field for a system of charged particles.

The value of the electric field has dimensions of force per unit charge. In the metre-kilogram-second and SI systems, the appropriate units are newtons per coulomb, equivalent to volts per metre.

The voltage between points A and B is

V=E.d

E =V/d  (uniform E- field only)  

where  d is the distance from A to B, or the distance between the plates.

Given:

distance d = 3 cm

voltage V = 120 V

Electric field E = V/d

                     E = 120 V / 3cm

                     E = 40 V / 1 cm               [ 1 cm = 1/100 m ]

                    E = 4000 V/m.

How can magnet be used to produce an electric current
Bess [88]

Answer:

Magnetic fields can be used to make electricity

Moving a magnet around a coil of wire, or moving a coil of wire around a magnet, pushes the electrons in the wire and creates an electrical current. Electricity generators essentially convert kinetic energy (the energy of motion) into electrical energy

Two students are watching a person riding a skateboard up and down a ramp. Each student shares what they think about the energy
avanturin [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

We know that , If the frictional force on a system is zero , then the total energy of a system will be conserved.

By using energy conservation

KE₁ +  U₁ = KE₂ + U₂

KE₁=Kinetic energy at location 1

U₁ =Potential energy at location 1

KE₂=Kinetic energy at location 2

U₂=Potential energy at location 2

Therefore, Raymond is thinking in a right way.

Block A of 5 kg with a speed of 3 m/s collides with block B of 10 kg that is stationary. After the collision, block B travels wi
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

-1m/s

Explanation:

We can calculate the speed of block A after collision

According to collision theory:

MaVa+MbVb = MaVa+MbVb (after collision)

Substitute the given values

5(3)+10(0) = 5Va+10(2)

15+0 = 5Va + 20

5Va = 15-20

5Va = -5

Va = -5/5

Va = -1m/s

Hence the velocity of ball A after collision is -1m/s

Note that the velocity of block B is zero before collision since it is stationary
