flipper (the dolphin) is out in the open ocean hunting tuna avec. he emits his pulse at 22khz and .42 seconds later he hears it

marusya05 [52]

First we need to find the speed of the dolphin sound wave in the water. We can use the following relationship between frequency and wavelength of a wave:
$v=\lambda f$
where
v is the wave speed
$\lambda$ its wavelength
f its frequency
Using $\lambda = 2 cm = 0.02 m$ and $f=22 kHz = 22000 Hz$ , we get
$v=(0.02 m)(22000 Hz)=440 m/s$

We know that the dolphin sound wave takes t=0.42 s to travel to the tuna and back to the dolphin. If we call L the distance between the tuna and the dolphin, the sound wave covers a distance of S=2 L in a time t=0.42 s, so we can write the basic relationship between space, time and velocity for a uniform motion as:
$v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{2L}{t}$
and since we know both v and t, we can find the distance L between the dolphin and the tuna:
$L= \frac{vt}{2}= \frac{(440 m/s)(0.42 s)}{2}=92.4 m$

A 8.34 × 103-kg lunar landing craft is about to touch down on the surface of the moon, where the acceleration due to gravity is

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

21870.3156 N

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 1.6 m/s²

Equation of motion

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-18.2^2}{2\times 162}\\\Rightarrow a=-1.02234\ m/s^2$

The acceleration of the craft should be 1.02234 m/s²

$F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=8.34\times 10^3\times 1.02234\\\Rightarrow F=8526.3156\ N$

Weight of the craft

$W=mg\\\Rightarrow W=8.34\times 10^3\times 1.6\\\Rightarrow W=13344\ N$

Thrust

$F_t=F+W\\\Rightarrow F_t=8526.3156+13344\\\Rightarrow F_t=21870.3156\ N$

The thrust needed to reduce the velocity to zero at the instant when the craft touches the lunar surface is 21870.3156 N

An airplane starts from rest and accelerates at a constant rate of 3.00 m/s2 for 30.0 s before leaving the ground. a. How far di

rosijanka [135]

The formula we can use in this case is:

d = v0t + 0.5 at^2

v = at + v0

where,

d = distance travelled

v0 = initial velocity = 0 since at rest

t = time travelled

a = acceleration

v = final velocity when it took off

a. d = 0 + 0.5 * 3 * 30^2

d = 1350 m

b. v = 3 * 30 + 0

v = 90 m/s

Why is there an upward force on objects in water?

Paraphin [41]

If you'r referring to some objects, it means that the mass of the object is less than the water so it floats. If the mass of an object is greater than the mass of the water, it will sink. Compare it to a balloon, helium makes it rise, while normal air makes it sink.
