Physics.... how far away was the lightning bolt in meters

Physics
1 answer:
likoan [24]3 years ago
8 0
To figure this out we need to multiply the time it took for the boy to hear thunder (8 seconds) by the speed of sound in air (340 m/s)

340 x 8 = 2720

The lightning bolt was 2720.00 meters away.

Determine the kinetic energy of a 2000 kg roller coaster car that is moving at the speed of 10 ms
kondaur [170]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 100,000 \ Joules}}

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is energy due to motion. The formula is half the product of mass and velocity squared.

E_k= \frac{1}{2} mv^2

The mass of the roller coaster car is 2000 kilograms and the car is moving 10 meters per second.

  • m= 2000 kg
  • s= 10 m/s

Substitute these values into the formula.

E_k= \frac{1}{2} (2000 \ kg ) \times (10 \ m/s)^2

Solve the exponent.

  • (10 m/s)²= 10 m/s * 10 m/s= 100 m²/s²

E_k= \frac{1}{2} (2000 \ kg ) \times (100 \ m^2/s^2)

Multiply the first two numbers together.

E_k= 1000 \ kg  \times (100 \ m^2/s^2)

Multiply again.

E_k= 100,000 \ kg*m^2/s^2

  • 1 kilogram square meter per square second is equal to 1 Joule.
  • Our answer of 100,000 kg*m²/s² is equal to 100,000 Joules.

E_k= 100,000 \ J

The roller coaster car has <u>100,000 Joules</u> of kinetic energy.

What is 1113.28 in a sig fig?
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

6 significant figure

Explanation:

The digits 111328 all are 6 figures with no figure being zero, neither zero after the other digits. In this case, all the numbers are significant and since they are only six numbers, then this is a six significant figure. In case we add another zero after digit 8, the zero is not significant but if added either infront of 8 or 2, the zero becomes significant.

A nickel (5 cent coin) has a mass of 5.0 g. How many nickels are there in a stack of nickels with a mass of 10.0 kg?
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

2000 nickels

Explanation:

One way to solve proportionality problems, direct and inverse: the simple 3 rule.

If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct (when one magnitude increases so does the other), the simple direct rule of three must be applied.

On the contrary, if the relationship between the magnitudes is inverse (when one magnitude increases the other decreases) the rule of three simple inverse applies.

The simple 3 rule is an operation that helps us quickly solve proportionality problems, both direct and inverse.

To make a simple rule of three we need 3 data: two magnitudes proportional to each other, and a third magnitude. From these, we will find out the fourth term of proportionality.

In the simple three rule, therefore, the proportionality relationship between two known values ​​A and B is established, and knowing a third value C, a fourth value D is calculated.

A -> B

C -> D

Calculation

1 nickel --> 5 g

X? nickel --> 10000g

X = (10000 g * 1 nickel) / 5 g

X = 2000 nickels

Janetta ran a campaign for student body president, and she really wanted to win. She gave election buttons to everyone and told
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

No, because she is hoping that people will vote for her.

Explanation:

Altruism is when you do something for others and have very little expectation of getting something in return. In this case, Janetta expected something in return from her friends. We may not also be sure of the sincerity of Janetta appreciating friendship. From the above definition of altruism, we conclude that Janetta's actions are not altruistic because she hoped that people will vote for her.
