Explanation :

Helium gas is present inside air balloon. Its density is less than air i.e. it is lighter than air.

The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s and around 972 m/s in He.

So, when Lisa placed a balloon to her ear, she was able to hear what her sister was whispering from the other side of the room because the sound waves are travelling with faster speed to Lisa.

When she removed the balloon, she was no longer able to hear what her sister was saying. It is because speed of sound in air is <em>343 m/s</em>.

Answer:

The answer is D

Explanation:

Sound does not travel around the air outside of the balloon as well as it does through the denser air pressure inside the balloon

A hot air balloon is on the ground, 200 feet from an observer. The pilot decides to ascend at 100 ft/min. How fast is the angle
liq [111]

Answer:

0.0031792338 rad/s

Explanation:

\theta = Angle of elevation

y = Height of balloon

Using trigonometry

tan\theta=y\dfrac{y}{200}\\\Rightarrow y=200tan\theta

Differentiating with respect to t we get

\dfrac{dy}{dt}=\dfrac{d}{dt}200tan\theta\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dy}{dt}=200sec^2\theta\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}\\\Rightarrow 100=200sec^2\theta\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{100}{200sec^2\theta}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{2}cos^2\theta

Now, with the base at 200 ft and height at 2500 ft

The hypotenuse is

h=\sqrt{200^2+2500^2}\\\Rightarrow h=2507.98\ ft

Now y = 2500 ft

cos\theta=\dfrac{200}{h}\\\Rightarrow cos\theta=\dfrac{200}{2507.98}=0.07974

\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.07974^2\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=0.0031792338\ rad/s

The angle is changing at 0.0031792338 rad/s

Two 30 uC charges lie on the x-axis, one at the origin and the other at 9 m. A third point is located at 27 m. What is the poten
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

25000 V

Explanation:

The formula for potential is

V = Kq/r

Potential at B due to the charge placed at origin O

V1 = K q / OB

V_{1}= \frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times 30 \times 10^{-6}}{27}

V1 = 10000 V

Potential at B due to the charge placed at A

V2 = K q / AB

V_{2}= \frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times 30 \times 10^{-6}}{18}

V2 = 15000 V

Total potential at B

V = V1 + V2 = 10000 + 15000 = 25000 V
