There are two different ways to understand time and these are:
A. What time is it?
B. How much time?
The examples of these two different ways are:
A. What time is it? The best example that would help us understand and know what time are the clock and the calendar. This gives us the exact hour, minutes and seconds. The calendar tells us the exact day, month and year.
B. How much time? This makes us understand how much time did it take from the starting time. An example for this would be a stopwatch.

An aluminum wing on a passenger jet is 35 m long when its temperature is 17°C. At what temperature would the wing be 3 cm (0.03

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

53.32°C

Explanation:

Length of the aluminium wing = 35 m

Change in length of aluminium wing = 0.03 m

The linear expansion coefficient of aluminium $\alpha =23.6\times 10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$

We know that change in length is given by $\Delta L=L\alpha \Delta T$

So $0.03=35\times 23.6\times 10^{-6}\Delta T$

$\Delta T=36.32^{\circ}C$

So final temperature $=T_I+\Delta T=17+36.32=53.3196^{\circ}C$

Based on the type of medium, what can you assume about the speed of sound in glass?

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

"It will be more than the speed of sound waves in air at 20*C and water at 20*C."

Explanation:

Speed of sound in a medium depends upon the density and elasticity of the medium.

If the elasticity of a medium is greater and the density of that medium is lower, sound will travel faster. Although density is also a factor but the major factor is Elasticity.

Hence, sound travel faster in solids than in liquids and even slower in gases due to elasticity difference.

$Speed of sound = V = \sqrt{\frac{Elasticity}{Density} }$

That is why the speed of sound in glass will be more than the speed of sound waves in air at 20*C and water at 20*C.

A hockey puck slides off the edge of a platform with an initial velocity of 20 m/s horizontally. The height of the platform abov

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

20.96 m/s

Explanation:

Using the equations of motion

y = uᵧt + gt²/2

Since the puck slides off horizontally,

uᵧ = vertical component of the initial velocity of the puck = 0 m/s

y = vertical height of the platform = 2 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

t = time of flight of the puck = ?

2 = (0)(t) + 9.8 t²/2

4.9t² = 2

t = 0.639 s

For the horizontal component of the motion

x = uₓt + gt²/2

x = horizontal distance covered by the puck

uₓ = horizontal component of the initial velocity = 20 m/s

g = 0 m/s² as there's no acceleration component in the x-direction

t = 0.639 s

x = (20 × 0.639) + (0 × 0.639²/2) = 12.78 m

For the final velocity, we'll calculate the horizontal and vertical components

vₓ² = uₓ² + 2gx

g = 0 m/s²

vₓ = uₓ = 20 m/s

Vertical component

vᵧ² = uᵧ² + 2gy

vᵧ² = 0 + 2×9.8×2

vᵧ = 6.26 m/s

vₓ = 20 m/s, vᵧ = 6.26 m/s

Magnitude of the velocity = √(20² + 6.26²) = 20.96 m/s
