What is the speed of sound for a noise that travels 2km in 5.8s?

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the rate at which an object covers a particular distance. So the formula for determining speed is given as the ratio of distance to time taken for covering that distance.

Speed = Distance/Time

As here the distance is given in km units and time in s units, so the units of any one parameter should be changed. Since we know that speed of sound is always about 300 m/s. So it is better to convert the unit of distance from km to m.

Hence, now the distance traveled by the noise is 2000 m and time taken is 5.8 s.

So the speed of noise = Distance/Time = 2000/5.8=345 m/s.

Thus, the speed of noise is slightly greater than the speed of sound and it is found to be 345 m/s.

A 57.0 kg cheerleader uses an oil-filled hydraulic lift to hold four 120 kg football players at a height of 1.10 m. If her pisto

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The diameter of the piston of the players equals 55.136 cm.

Explanation:

from the principle of transmission of pressure in a hydraulic lift we have

$\frac{F_{1}}{A_{1}}=\frac{F_{2}}{A_{1}}$

Since the force in the question is the weight of the individuals thus upon putting the values in the above equation we get

$\frac{57.0\times 9.81}{\frac{\pi \times (19.0)^{2}}{4}}=\frac{4\times 120\times 9.81}{\frac{\pi \times D_{2}^{2}}{4}}$

Solving for $D_{2}$ we get

$D_{2}^{2}=\frac{4\times 120}{57}\times 19^{2}\\\\\therefore D_{2}=\sqrt{\frac{4\times 120}{57}}\times 19\\\\D_{2}=55.136cm$

Which layer of the atmosphere is the top layer of the thermosphere?

joja [24]

The thermosphere is a layer of Earth's atmosphere. The thermosphere is directly above the mesosphere and below the exosphere. It extends from about 90 km (56 miles) to between 500 and 1,000 km (311 to 621 miles) above our planet.

A soccer ball is released from rest at the top of a grassy incline. After 6.2 seconds, the ball travels 47 meters. One second la

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

(a) a = 2.44 m/s²

(b) s = 63.24 m

Explanation:

(a)

We will use the second equation of motion here:

$s = v_it+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where,

s = distance covered = 47 m

vi = initial speed = 0 m/s

t = time taken = 6.2 s

a = acceleration = ?

Therefore,

$47\ m = (0\ m/s)(6.2\ s)+\frac{1}{2}a(6.2\ s)^2\\\\a = \frac{2(47\ m)}{(6.2\ s)^2}$

a = 2.44 m/s²

(b)

Now, we will again use the second equation of motion for the complete length of the inclined plane:

$s = v_it+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where,

s = distance covered = ?

vi = initial speed = 0 m/s

t = time taken = 7.2 s

a = acceleration = 2.44 m/s²

Therefore,

$s = (0\ m/s)(6.2\ s)+\frac{1}{2}(2.44\ m/s^2)(7.2\ s)^2\\\\$

s = 63.24 m
