Answer:
Explanation:
We need the power equation here:
P = W/t where W is work and is defined as
W = F*displacement.
Force is a measure in Newtons, which is also weight. We have the mass of the piano, but we need to find the weight:
w = mg so
w = 166(9.8) so
w = 1600N, rounded to the correct number of sig dig. We use that now in the power equation:
and isolating the unknown:
so
t = 5.3 seconds
Answer:
option b
Explanation:
from the given formula, s=d/t
make t the subject of the formula we have
t=d/s
5/100
0.5
The sound wave will have traveled 2565 m farther in water than in air.
Answer:
Explanation:
It is known that distance covered by any object is directly proportional to the velocity of the object and the time taken to cover that distance.
Distance = Velocity × Time.
So if time is kept constant, then the distance covered by a wave can vary depending on the velocity of the wave.
As we can see in the present case, the velocity of sound wave in air is 343 m/s. So in 2.25 s, the sound wave will be able to cover the distance as shown below.
Distance = 343 × 2.25 =771.75 m
And for the sound wave travelling in fresh water, the velocity is given as 1483 m/s. So in a time interval of 2.25 s, the distance can be determined as the product of velocity and time.
Distance = 1483×2.25=3337 m.
Since, the velocity of sound wave travelling in fresh water is greater than the sound wave travelling in air, the distance traveled by sound wave in fresh water will be greater.
Difference in distance covered in water and air = 3337-772 m = 2565 m
So the sound wave will have traveled 2565 m farther in water than in air.
