Bats use a process called echolocation to find their food. This involves giving out sound waves that hit possible prey or food.

When the waves hit an object, they bounce back to the bat, allowing the bat to locate its prey. What type of wave interaction is echolocation?

The type of waves used by bats are sound waves. Most of the species use their larynx to produce ultrasound waves in the frequency range of 20 to 200 kilohertz.
These sound waves are echoed, reflected, by surroundings, in this case food or prey. These reflections are received by the specialized receptor cells in the ears of bats. The reflections are analyzed by the brain to make an image.
Fun fact: The brain cells of bats are also specialized to better analyze the frequency of ultrasound used by the bat.

I need help find how much tension is in the string????
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

When a rope supports the weight of an object that is at rest, the tension in the rope is equal to the weight of the object: T = mg.

Image result for I need help find how much tension is in the string???? And can you explain how you got it after you get the answer plz????

Hence, in such a case the tension will be equal to the centrifugal force.

Formula for tension = centrifugal force = mv2/r.

So the formula of tension will be = centripetal force – force of gravity = mv2/r – mg = m(v2/r-g)

The formula of tension will be = centripetal force + force of gravity = mv2/r + mg = m(v2/r+g)

A square is 1.0 m on a side. Point charges of +4.0 μC are placed in two diagonally opposite corners. In the other two corners ar
finlep [7]

Answer:

<em>B) 1.0 × 10^5 V</em>

Explanation:

<u>Electric Potential Due To Point Charges </u>

The electric potential produced from a point charge Q at a distance r from the charge is

\displaystyle V=k\frac{Q}{r}

The total electric potential for a system of point charges is equal to the sum of their individual potentials. This is a scalar sum, so direction is not relevant.

We must compute the total electric potential in the center of the square. We need to know the distance from all the corners to the center. The diagonal of the square is

d=\sqrt2 a

where a is the length of the side.

The distance from any corner to the center is half the diagonal, thus

\displaystyle r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{a}{\sqrt{2}}

\displaystyle r=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=0.707\ m

The total potential is  

V_t=V_1+V_2+V_3+V_4

Where V1 and V2 are produced by the +4\mu C charges and V3 and V4 are produced by the two opposite charges of \pm 3\mu\ C. Since all the distances are equal, and the charges producing V3 and V4 are opposite, V3 and V4 cancel each other. We only need to compute V1 or V2, since they are equal, but they won't cancel.

\displaystyle V_1=V_2=k\frac{Q}{r}=9\times 10^9 \frac{4\times 10^{-6}}{0.707}

V_1=V_2=50912\ V

The total potential is

V_t=50912\ V+50912\ V=1\times 10^5\ V

\boxed{V_t=1\times 10^5\ V}

A concrete highway is built of slabs 12 m long (20°C). How wide should the expansion cracks between the slabs be (at 20°C) to pr
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

0.001152m

Explanation:

Linear expansivity of a material is the change in length of the material per unit length per degree rise in temperature. Mathematically,

¢ = ∆L/L1∆°C

¢ is the linear expansivity of the material = 12 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹

Where ∆L is the change in length = L2-L1

L2 is the final length = ?

L1 is the initial length = 12m

∆°C is the change in temperature = °C2 - °C1 = 50-(-30) = 80°C

Substituting this values inside the formula to get the final length L2 after expansion, we have;

12 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹ = L2-12/12×80

12 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹ = L2-12/960

L2-12= 960×12 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹

L2-12 = 0.001152

L2 = 12+0.001152

L2 = 12.001152m

Expansion will be the change in length L2-L1 = 12.001152-12

= 0.001152m

The expansion cracks between the slabs should be 0.001152m wide to prevent buckling

sattari [20]

Answer:

993 m or 3257 ft

Explanation:

The captain was told to fly at at 1500 ft altitude. At the rate of 3.28 ft to 1 m, this is

\dfrac{1500}{3.28}=457 metres.

Since he was at 1450 m, he thought he was above the correct altitude by

1450 - 457 = 993 m.

In feet, this is

993 * 3.28 = 3257 ft
