All we really need to know to answer this one is the speed of sound, and that's not easy. Sound has different speeds in wet air, dry air, warm air, cool air, and air at high or low pressure ... and ALL of these are present on the way from the thunderstorm to you !
So let's just use the number for the speed of sound in dry air at sea level and comfortable temperature: 343 meters/sec.
time = (distance) / (speed)
Time = (1485 meters) / (343 m/s)
Time = (1485/343) second
Time = 4.3 seconds roughly approximately around about
AC motors work a slightly different way: they pass alternating current through opposing pairs of magnets to create a rotating magnetic field, which "induces" (creates) a magnetic field in the motor's rotor, causing it to spin around. You can read more about this in our article on AC induction motors.
The magnitude of normal force that floor exerts on chair is 100.83N
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Weight of chair, W = 75N
Applied force, F = 42N
Angle, θ = 38°
Normal force, n = ?
We know,
Vertical component of the force = F sinθ
= 42 X sin38°
= 42 X 0.615
= 25.83N
Total normal force acting on the chair = 75N + 25.83N
= 100.83N
Therefore, the magnitude of normal force that floor exerts on chair is 100.83N
<span>CH4 I assume you're doing a test or something but I'm not good at explaining things so hopefully it's multiple choice! </span>
Answer:
<em>The amount of charge increases.</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
For a capacitor that has its plates still connected to a battery, the voltage on the capacitor remains constant. If the distance between the two plates of this capacitor is decreased, the capacitance will increase, and then the charge on the plate will increase in accordance with the relationship
Q =CV
From this relationship, if V is held constant, then Q has to increase for C to increase also.
