Physics
1 answer:
mafiozo [28]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a) an airplane in mid-flight

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy is defined by

E_{potential} =m*g*h

where m is the mass of the object;

g is the gravitational acceleration;

an h is the height of the object;

For the examples, the highest value in potential energy will be for the airplane, because it has the more mass and the higher altitude by far in relation to the baseball or the bird.

A swimming pool, 10.0 m by 4.0 m, is filled with water to a depth of 3.0 m at a temperature of 20.2°c. if the energy needed to r
Tomtit [17]

You need to find the mass of water in the pool.
Find the volume (10 x 4 x 3) = 120 m3

Water has a density of 1000g/m3,so 120 m3 = 120 x 1000 = 120 000 kg

[delta]H = 4.187 x 120 000 x 3.4 (and the units will be kJ)

You then use the heat of combustion knowing that each mole of methane releases 891 kJ of heat so if you divide 891 into the previous answer, you will get the number of moles of CH4

Use your knowledge of waves to explain why echoes occur. Use your explanation to devise a system to measure distances to objects
german

Explanation:

Echoes occur due to the reflection of sound from any obstacle, but not all the reflected sound waves lead to the phenomenon of echo. For the echo to be heard it actually depends upon the human perception as well, human ears can encounter the difference between the sound wave directly form the source and the reflected sound waves only if there is a minimum time gap of one-tenth of a second. For this time gap in the atmosphere at normal temperature and pressure the obstacle must be at least 7 meters away from the sound source.
