A stationary sub uses sonar to send a 1.18x10^3 hertz sound wave through ocean water. The reflected sound wave from the flat oce

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

a) v = 1524.7 m/s

b) T = 8.47*10^-4 s

λ = 1.29 m

Explanation:

a) First, in order to calculate the speed of the sound wave, you take into account that the velocity is constant, then, you use the following formula:

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

d: distance traveled by the sound wave, which is twice the distance to the ocean bottom = 2*324 m = 648 m

t: time that sound wave takes to return to the sub = 0.425

$v=\frac{648m}{0.425s}=1524.7\frac{m}{s}$

hence, the speed of the sound wave is 1524.7 m/s

b) Next, with the value of the velocity of the wave you can calculate the wavelength of the wave, by using the following formula:

$v=\lambda f\\\\\lambda=\frac{v}{f}$

f: frequency = 1.18*10^3 Hz

$\lambda=\frac{1524.7m/s}{1.18*10^3s^{-1}}=1.29m$

And the period is:

$T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{1.18*10^3s^{-1}}=8.47*10^{-4}s$

hence, the wavelength and period of the sound wave is, respectively, 1.29m and 8.47*10^-4 s

If the outside air temperature increases during a flight at constant power and at a constant indicated altitude, the true airspe

Readme [11.4K]

The true airspeed will increase and true altitude will increase.

<h3>What is true air speed?</h3>

True airspeed is the airspeed of an aircraft relative to undisturbed air.

It's the aircraft speed relative to the airmass in which it's flying.

<h3>How does outside air temperature affect air speed?</h3>

If the outside air temperature increases during a flight at constant power and at a constant indicated altitude, the true airspeed will increase and true altitude will increase.

Thus, the true airspeed will increase and true altitude will increase.

A vertical spring stretches 4.0 cm when a 12-g object is hung from it. The object is replaced with a block of mass 28 g that osc

marin [14]

Answer:

Time period of the osculation will be 0.0671 sec

Explanation:

It is given a vertical spring is stretched by 4 cm

So change in length of the spring x = 4 cm = 0.04 m

Mass which is hung from it m = 12 gram = 0.012 kg

Sprig force will be equal to weight of the mass

So $kx=mg$

$k\times 0.04=0.012\times 9.8$

k = 244.7 N/m

Now new mass is m = 28 gram = 0.028 kg

So time period with new mass will be

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$

$=2\times 3.14 \sqrt{\frac{0.028}{244.7}}=0.0671sec$

What is the gravitational field strength at a distance of 60.0 km above the surface of the earth

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

g=9.64m/s^2.

Explanation:

Gravitational field strength (in other words, gravitational acceleration) is given as follows:g=GMR2g=R2GMwhere G=6.674×10−11m3kg⋅s2G=6.674×10−11kg⋅s2m3 is the gravitational constant, M=5.972×1024kgM=5.972×1024kg is the mass of the Earth, and R=6.371×106m+0.06×106m=6.431×106mR=6.371×106m+0.06×106m=6.431×106m is the distance from the center of the Earth to the required point above the surface (radius plus 60 km).

How does ocean move energy around the glob?(Full explanation please)

leonid [27]

The ocean and atmosphere are connected. They work together to move heat and fresh water across the globe. Wind-driven and ocean-current circulations move warm water toward the poles and colder water toward the equator. The ocean can store much more heat than the land surfaces on the Earth. The majority of the thermal energy at the Earth’s surface is stored in the ocean. Thus, the absorption and movement of energy on the Earth is related to the ocean-atmosphere system.
