In physics, certain metals elongate when it is heated. This is a consequence of the expansion of the molecules present in a metal tube, for example. This elongation is described by the equation:

ΔL = L0*α*ΔT, where

ΔL is the elongation. In other words, this is the difference between the original length and the elongated length.
L0 is the original leng
α is the coefficient of linear expansion. This is an empirical data for specific kind of materials. For brass, α = 18.9 x 10^6/°C
ΔT is the change in temperature

Rearranging the equation,

ΔL/L0 = α*ΔT, where ΔL/L0 is the percentage of length expansion which is equal to 0.018 (1.8^%)

0.018 = (18.9 x 10^-6)(T-30)
T = 982.4°C

You see lightning and 30 seconds later you hear thunder. how far away is the thunderstorm? take the speed of sound to be 339 m/s
Jobisdone [24]
Let the observer be 'd' distance away from the thunderstorm and let light take 't' time to reach the observer
Since the speed of sound and light remains constant in a particular medium, we can use
      Speed = Distance/Time

For light,
   3 x 10^8 = d/t
                t = d/(3 x 10^8)   -1 

For sound,
           339 = d/(t + 30)       -2

Putting value from 1 in 2.
               d = 10^4 m(approx)

A 4.1 object is lifted to a height of 4.5m above the surface of Earth.What is the potential energy of the object due to gravity?
liberstina [14]

Answer:

P = 180.81 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a object, m = 4.1 kg

It is lifted to a height of 4.5 m

We need to find the potential energy of the object due to gravity. It is given by the formula as follows :

P = mgh Where g is acceleration due to gravity

P = 4.1 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 4.5 m

P = 180.81 J

Hence, the potential energy is 180.81 J.
