These are all examples of inelastic collisions.
Inelastic collisions are collisions in which energy (kinetic) is lost. All contact collisions are inelastic.

<span>Elastic collision is a collision where the colliding objects bounce back without undergoing any deformation or heat generation. Inelastic collision is a collision where the colliding objects are distorted and heat is generated.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

ycow [4]
I want to say its cooled by reflection because of the foil, sun reflects off of the foil back into the atmosphere. I don't think it's conduction because I have the foil on my windows and it's never warm to the touch. it's not a liquid so I don't believe it's convection. The foil reflects the radiation so I don't think it's b, c or d. so I wanna say A but I'm not 100% sure

yaroslaw [1]

Answer: Electromagnetic radiation

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation is a combination of oscillating electric and magnetic fields, which propagate through space carrying energy from one place to another.

To understand it better:

This radiation is spread thanks to the electromagnetic fields produced by moving electric charges and their sources can be natural or man-made.

It should be noted that the energy of electromagnetic radiation can vary and depending on its frequency it can be useful for various situations.

Two fans are watching a baseball game from different positions. One fan is located directly behind home plate, 18.3 mfrom the ba
hjlf

Answer:

Δt = 0.315s

Explanation:

To calculate the time difference, in which both fans hear the batterstrike, you first calculate the time which takes the sound to travel the distances to both fans:

t_1=\frac{d_1}{v_s}

t_2=\frac{d_2}{v_s}

d1: distance to the first fan = 18.3 m

d2: distance to the second fan = 127 m

vs: speed of sound = 345 m/s

You replace the values of the parameters to calculate t1 and t2:

t_1=\frac{18.3m}{345m/s}=0.053s\\\\t_2=\frac{127m}{345m/s}=0.368s

The difference in time will be:

\Delta t =t_2-t_2=0.368s-0.053s=0.315s

Hence, the time difference between hearing the sound at the location s of both fans is 0.315s
