Two astronauts are 1.5m apart in their spaceship.One speaks to the other. The conversation is transmitted to earth via electroma

gnetic waves. The time it takes for sound waves to travel at 343 m/s through the air between the astronauts equals the time it takes for the electromagnetic waves to travel to the earth. How far away from the earth is the spaceship?

Answer:

1311900 m far away from the earth

Explanation:

Given data

astronauts = 1.5 m

sound waves to travel = 343 m/s

to find out

How far away from the earth

solution

we know 2 astronauts are at distance 1.5 m from each other

and  sound travel  343 m/s

so time period = distance / sound speed

time period = 1.5 / 343 = 4.373 ×10^{-3} sec

and time for sound reach at earth

speed of sound = 3 ×10^{8}  m/s

so

time  = distnace /   3 ×10^{8}

4.373 ×10^{-3}  = distnace /   3 ×10^{8}

distance = 4.373 ×10^{-3} × 3 ×10^{8}

distance = 1311900 m

so 1311900 m far away from the earth

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

the horizontal velocity while it was falling is 22.1 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

height of fall, h = 16 m

horizontal distance, x = 40 m

The time to travel 16 m is calculated as;

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 16}{9.8} } \\\\t = 1.81 \ s

The horizontal velocity is calculated as;

v_x = \frac{X}{t} \\\\v_x = \frac{40}{1.81} \\\\v_x = 22.1 \ m/s

Therefore, the horizontal velocity while it was falling is 22.1 m/s.

What is the magnitude of the electric field at the origin produced by a semi-circular arc of charge = 7.6 μc, twice the charge o
Anna [14]

Orient the semi-circle arc such that it is symmetric with respect to the y-axis. Now, by symmetry, the electric field in the x-direction cancels to zero. So the only thing of interest is the electric field in the y-direction.  


dEy=kp/r^2*sin(a) where k is coulombs constant p is the charge density r is the radius of the arc and a is the angular position of each point on the arc (ranging from 0 to pi. Integrating this renders 2kq/(pi*r^3). Where k is 9*10^9, q is 9.8 uC r is .093 m
