Length of the copper rod = 2.5 meters
Speed at which sound travels through copper = 3560 meter per second
Let us assume the time taken
by sound to cover the given distance = x seconds
We already know that 
Speed = Distance/ Time
Then
Time = Distance/ Speed
x = 2.5/3560 seconds
   = 0.0007 seconds.
This can ve done by hitting one end of the rod and then receiving the sound at the other end and using the stop clock to measure the time taken.

Answer;The time taken by they sound to move from one end of the rod to another end is 0.00054 seconds.

Explanation;

Speed of sound in the copper = 4600 m/s

Length of the copper  rod = 2.5 m

Speed=\frac{Distance}{\text{Time taken}}

Distance covered by the sound = length of the copper

4600 m/s=\frac{2.5 m}{T}

T=\frac{2.5 m}{4600 m/s}=0.00054 s

The time taken by they sound to move from one end of the rod to another end is 0.00054 seconds.

Is a magnetic reversal a threat to life on Earth ? Whay do you say?
KATRIN_1 [288]
I would say yes, a magnetic reversal a threat to life on Earth. Base on articles, it is the end of the world if that happens. <span>Some people believe global cataclysm will occur when Earth's magnetic poles reverse. When north goes south, they say, the continents will lurch in one direction or the other, triggering massive earthquakes, rapid climate change and species extinctions.</span>

Calculate the minimum thickness (in nm) of an oil slick on water that appears blue when illuminated by white light perpendicular
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The minimum thickness = 83.92 nm

Explanation:

The relation between the wavelength in a particular medium and refractive index \lambda_n = \frac{ \lambda }{n}

where ;

\lambda = wavelength of the light in vacuum

n = refractive index of medium with respect to vacuum

For one phase change :

2t = \frac{\lambda_n}{2}\\\\where \ \lambda_n = \frac{\lambda}{n}\\\\Then \ \\\\2t = \frac{\lambda}{2n}\\\\t = \frac{\lambda_n}{4n}

Replacing 1.43 for n and 480 nm for λ; we have:

t = \frac{480}{4(1.43)}

t = 83.92 nm

Thus; the minimum thickness = 83.92 nm

At what point in its motion is the KE of a pendulum bob a maximum? 1. The KE does not change. 2. at the lowest point 3. at the h
Andrew [12]

Answer:

2. at the lowest point

Explanation:

The motion of the pendulum is a continuous conversion between kinetic energy (KE) and gravitational potential energy (GPE). This is because the mechanical energy of the pendulum, which is sum of KE and GPE, is constant:

E = KE + GPE = const.

Therefore, when KE is maximum, GPE is minimum, and viceversa.

So, the point of the motion where the KE is maximum is where the GPE is minimum: and since the GPE is directly proportional to the heigth of the bob:

GPE=mgh

we see that GPE is minimum when the bob is at the lowest point,so the correct answer is

2. at the lowest point
