Hey Tori's are the rim of a canyon yells hello toward the opposite side she has an echo hello four seconds later if the speed of

sound is 340 m/s how far away was the canyon wall that produced the echo?

Answer:

The wall is 680 meter away from the person.

Explanation:

Given data

Speed of sound = 340 $\frac{m}{s}$

Given that Persons said hello toward the opposite side she has an echo hello 4 seconds later means it takes 2 seconds for the sound to reach the wall & again 2 seconds to reach the persons ear.

Therefore the distance between the person & wall is

D = speed × Time

D = 340 × 2

D = 680 meter

Therefore the wall is 680 meter away from the person.

You work for the city water department and need to pump 3400 liters/minute of water from a tank at ground level into a vented (i

umka21 [38]

Answer:

$P_E=46.2778\ kW$

$v=1.804\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

flow rate of water, $\dot{V}=3400\ L.min^{-1}=3.4\ m^3.min^{-1}$

<em>∵Density of water is 1 kg per liter</em>

∴mass flow rate of water, $\dot{m}=3400\ kg.min^{-1}$

height of pumping, $h=75\ m$

efficiency of motor drive, $\eta=0.9$

diameter of pipe, $D =0.2\ m$

<u>Now the power required for pumping the water at given conditions:</u>

$P=\dot{m}.g.h$

$P=\frac{3400}{60} \times 9.8\times 75$

$P=41650\ W$

<u>Hence the electric power required:</u>

$P_E \times \eta=P$

$P_E \times 0.9=41650$

$P_E=46.2778\ kW$

<u>Flow velocity is given as:</u>

$v=\dot{V}\div a$

where: a = cross sectional area of flow through the pipe

$v=\frac{3.4}{60}\div (\pi.\frac{0.2^2}{4} )$

$v=1.804\ m.s^{-1}$

HELP ASAP!! WILL TRY TO GIVE BRAINLIEST

Verdich [7]

Answer:

Diffusion is the movement of a molecule from an area where the molecule is in high concentration to an area where the molecule is in low concentration. Facilitated diffusion is the movement of a molecule from an area of high concentration to an area where the molecule is in low concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion (high to low concentration) of water through a semi-permeable membrane. Water moves from an area of high water molecule concentration (and lower solute concentration) to an area of low concentration (and higher solute concentration.

Hope this Helps!!!

A supertanker filled with oil has a total mass of 6.1 x108 kg. If the dimensions of the ship are those of a rectangular box 300

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The bottom of the sea is 25 m below sea level.

Explanation:

Given data

Mass = 6.1 × $10^{8} \ kg$

$\rho_{sea} = 1020\ \frac{kg}{m^{3} }$

We know that Buoyant force on the tank is equal to gravity force of the tank.

$F_B = F_g$

$(\rho_{Fluid}) (g) (V_{disp}) = m g$

$(\rho_{Fluid}) (V_{disp}) = m$

1020 × $V_{disp}$ = 6.1 × $10^{8}$

$V_{disp}$ = 598039.21 $m^{3}$

We know that

$V_{disp}$ = W × L × H

598039.21 = 300 × 80 × H

H = 25 m

Therefore the bottom of the sea is 25 m below sea level.

Two forces act in opposite directions on a wood block. What will happen if the forces are unbalanced?

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

If two unequal forces act in opposite directions, one larger force must cancel out the smaller force,

leaving the net force to be some number in one direction.

Take for example a game of tug-of-war; there are two OPPOSITE forces (groups of people) acting on the rope, one force is pulling with a force in the negative direction while the other force is pulling in the positive direction.

If the forces on the rope were unequal, then the stronger force (group) will pull everything in their direction.

The same will happen on two unequal forces of opposite directions acting on a wooden block. Therefore, since the resultant force will have a non-zero magnitude and direction, there will be a change in the block's motion and position.
