Answer:

Ali hear the sound in 0.046 seconds.

Explanation:

Given:

Distance between Ali and Abdi =  300m

Speed of sound in steel = 6500m/s

To Find :

How much sooner does Ali hear the sound = ?

Solution:

We can find the time in which the sound made by Abdi with a stone on the rail by using the speed formula

We know that

Speed = \frac{Distance}{time}\\

On substituting the given values,

6500 = \frac{300}{time}\\

time = \frac{300}{6500}\\

time = \frac{300}{6500}\\

Time  = 0.046 seconds

A car owner forgets to turn off the headlights of his car while it is parked in his garage. If the 12.0-V battery in his car is
avanturin [10]

Answer: 22.6 hours

Explanation:

The power is the measure of the rate of energy.

In this problem, the 12.0 V battery is rated at 51.0 Ah, which means it delivers 51.0 A of current in a time of t = 1 h = 3600 s. The power delivered by the battery can be written as

P=IV

where

I is the current

V = 12.0 V is the voltage of the battery

So the energy delivered by the battery can be written as

E=Pt=VIt

Where

It=51.0 A\cdot h = 51.0 A \cdot 3600 s/h=183,600 A\cdot s

So the energy delivered is

E=(12.0)(183,600)=2.2\cdot 10^6 J

At the same time, the headlight consumes 27.0 W of power, so 27 Joules of energy per second; Therefore, it will remain on for a time of:

t=\frac{2.2\cdot 10^6 J}{27.0 W}=81481 s = 22.6 h

A neutral copper block is polarized as shown in the figure below, due to an electric field made by external charges (notshown).
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

As point B is located inside the copper block so net electric field at point B is j.

Explanation:

Consider the figure attached below. The net electric field at location B,that is inside the copper block is zero because when a conductor is charged or placed in an electric field of  external charges, net charge lies on the surface of conductor and there is no electric field inside the conductor. As point B is located inside the copper block so net electric field at point B is zero as well direction of net electric field at point B is zero.

Jonah is trying to move his 22-kg desk by pushing on it with a force of 130 N, but his brother is leaning on it with a downward
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

0.54

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram.  There are 5 forces on the desk:

Weight force mg pulling down

Applied force 24 N pushing down

Normal force Fn pushing up

Applied force 130 N pushing right

Friction force Fnμ pushing left

Sum of the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

Fn − mg − 24 = 0

Fn = mg + 24

Fn = (22)(9.8) + 24

Fn = 240

Sum of the forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

130 − Fnμ = 0

Fnμ = 130

μ = 130 / Fn

μ = 130 / 240

μ = 0.54

Which statement best describes the motion of air particles in a sound wave?
Elodia [21]

Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

They vibrate parallel to the wave.

During the propagation of a sound wave in air, the vibrations of the particles are most accurately represented as longitudinal. Longitudinal waves are waves in which the motion of the individual particles of the medium occurs in a direction that is parallel to the direction of energy transmission.
