A sailor strikes the side of his ship just below the waterline. He hears the echo of the sound reflected from the ocean floor di

rectly below 3.5 s later. How deep is the ocean at this point?

Answer:

2625 m deep

Explanation:

Let the sound speed in sea water be 1500 m/s. If he hears the echo 3.5s after the strike, then the sound would have traveled a distance of 1500 * 3.5 = 5250 m to the bottom and back. This would mean the ocean is 5250 / 2 = 2625 m deep.

How many protons, electrons, and neutrons are present in an atom of cr-24?
mote1985 [20]

The number of protons, electrons, and neutrons in the atom of cr-24 is 28, 24, and 24 respectively.

<h3>What is atom?</h3>

An atom is the smallest unit of matter, consisting of the positively charged nucleus and the electrons which move around it. The atom can not be divided further.

The atom of a matter is made by three elements-

  • 1) Neutron-Neutron is the element of an atom, which has zero charge.
  • 2) Proton-Proton is the element of an atom, which has a positive charge.
  • 3) Electron-Electron is the element of an atom, which has a negative charge.

The atom of cr-24 has the atomic number 24. The atomic number of atom is equal to the number of proton and electron in an atom. Thus,

\rm Proton=24\\\rm Electron=24

Now, if this atom has the mass number of 52 (most common). Then the number of neutron is,

\rm Neutrons=Mass\; Number-Atomic\; Number\\\rm Neutrons=52-24\\\rm Neutrons=28

Thus, the number of protons, electrons, and neutrons in the atom of cr-24 is 28, 24, and 24 respectively.

1) A train accelerates from 36 km/hr to 54 km/hr in 10<br> s. Find acceleration?
Crank

Answer: Given:

Initial velocity= 36km/h=36x5/18=10m/s

Final velocity =54km/h=54x5/18=15m/s

Time =10sec

Acceleration = v-u/ t

=15-10/10=5/10=1/2=0.5 m/s2

Distance =s=?

From second equation of motion:

S=ut +1/2 at^2

=10*10+1/2*0.5*10*10

=100+25

=125m

So distance travelled 125m

Hope it helps you
