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/

s. How much time does it take for the sound wave to travel to the whale and back? (Unit = s)

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)

How does inertia affect a person who is not wearing a seatbelt during a collision?
Vadim26 [7]
When someone fails to wear a seat belt the passenger becoming a projectile the force a person will be subjected to for a passenger weighting 100 pounds, and the car is traveling at 60 mph would be the same as 6000 pounds. thats like hitting a brick wall. so is other words put ur seat belt on. 

hope this helped (:

A box with a mass of 40 kg sits at rest on a frictionless tile floor. with your foot, you apply a 20 N force in a horizontal dir
Grace [21]

Answer:

0.5 m/s²

Explanation:

according to Newton's second law, we are goven a relationship between force, mass and acceleration, with the formula:

F = m×a

F for force

m for mass

a for acceleration

we use the given data and get:

20 = 40×a

we find a=20/40=0.5m/s²

A ball is thrown into the air with a vertical velocity of 50 m/s and a horizontal
daser333 [38]

\mathfrak{\huge{\pink{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Projectile Motion.

Since, here given that, vertical velocity= 50m/s

we know that u*sin(theta) = vertical velocity

so the time taken to reach the maximum height or the time of Ascent is equal to

T = Usin(theta) ÷ g, here g = 9.8 m/s^2

so we get as,

T = 50/9.8

T = 5.10 seconds

thus the time taken to reach max height is 5.10 seconds.
