Answer:

t=1.25\,s

Explanation:

In a thunderstorm the lightening is seen first then the roar of the lightening is heard because of the fact that speed of the light is much greater than the speed of the sound.

Given that:

Relation   M=t\times 5.6

M= 7 miles

t=?

where:

t= time in seconds

M= distance in miles

Now,

Putting the given values in the relation above

7=t\times 5.6

t=1.25\,s

Linh builds a circuit from the diagram shown. Which bulb could Linh remove from the circuit to make all of the other bulbs stop
LenKa [72]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

In order for the current to continue flowing through the circuit (and for the bulbs to continue shining), there must be a closed path containing the battery where current can flow. Let's see the effect of removing each bulb on the circuit:

- 1: when removing bulb 1 only, the current can still flow through the path battery-bulb 3- bulb 4

- 2: when removing bulb 2 only, the current can still flow through the path battery-bulb 3- bulb 4

- 3: when removing bulb 3 only, the current can still flow through the path battery-bulb 1-bulb 2- bulb 4

- 4: when removing bulb 4 only, the current can no longer flow. In fact, there is no closed path that contains the battery now, so the current will not flow and all the bulbs will stop shining.

Convert 1nanosecond in to its SI init

<em>Convert 1nanosecond in to its SI init</em>

<em>In SI units, nano is 1000th part of micro which in turn is 1000th part of mini which in turn is 1000th part of main unit. Now, when you affix nano to any unit, here in case, second, it means that you are referring to 1000th part of 1000th part of 1000th part of second or in short, 1000000000th(10^9) part of a second.</em>

If two balls collide with each other, they will move apart at the same speed if
denis-greek [22]
A.
if you have seen a newton's cradle this will make sense.

in order for both of them to travel at the same speed, the balls need to have the same mass and the speed to begin with tocontinue to travel at the same speed because mass can affect the impact of the force on the balls by each other, causing each ball to have different speeds.

Why does static friction have a maximum value​
Naddik [55]

Answer:

If you push horizontally with a small force, static friction establishes an equal and opposite force that keeps the book at rest. As you push harder, the static friction force increases to match the force. Eventually maximum static friction force is exceeded and the book moves.
