If you shout at a cliff wall that is 440 m away and the air temperature is at 25 °C, how long will it take before you hear your

echo?

The speed of sound at T=25°C is Vs=346 m/s. So the sound has to reach the cliff and return back to you so the path it needs to travel is s=2*440 m = 880 m.
Since the speed of sound is constant s=Vs*t, and t= s/Vs=880/346=2.54335 s. You will hear the echo after t=2.54335 s after you shouted.

Answer:

1.85c

Explanation:

a photon moves at c, the electron is moving at 0.85c, and since they are moving in opposing directions, the relative speed would be 1.85c

A mixture of air and gasoline vapor in a cylinder with a piston. The original volume is 30. cm3. If the combustion of this mixtu
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Original volume V1=30cm^3 converting to L

=30/1000=0.03L

Constant pressure P= 648 tors

Converting to atm; 648 tors*1atm/760 torr=0.853 atm

Work=984J= 984**1L/101.33=9.7L.atm

Note before

W= -P(Vfinal-Vinitial)

-9.7/0.853+0.03L=11.68L

A car traveling at 100 km/h strikes an unfortunate bug that splatters on the windshield. the force of impact is greater on the
mixas84 [53]

Answer: the force of impact is the same in magnitude for both the winshield and the bug, and in opposed directions.



Explanation:



1) Whenever two objects are in contact you have to think about the Third Law of Newton, named action-reaction force.


2) According to this law, action and reaction have the same magnitude but opposite directions.


3) Think that forces always come in pairs. They act over different objects, have the same magnitude and act on opposite directions. Some additional examples are:


i) When you kick a stone, the force of your foot on the stone is the same force of the stone on your foot.


ii) When you stand on the ground, the force that your feet exert on the ground is equal to that that the ground exerts on you feet, but in opposite direction.


iii) When you push a block, the block pushes you with the same magnitude.
