You are climbing in the High Sierra when you suddenly find yourself at the edge of a fog-shrouded cliff. To find the height of t

his cliff, you drop a rock from the top; 8.60 s later you hear the sound of the rock hitting the ground at the foot of the cliff.Part AIgnoring air resistance, how high is the cliff if the speed of sound is 330 m/s?Suppose you had ignored the time it takes the sound to reach you. In that case, would you have overestimated or underestimated the height of the cliff?a. underestimatedb. overestimated

5 0

Answer:

Height with sound ignored = Gravity x Time taken = 9.8 x 8.60 = 84.28 meters

Time taken by the sound = 84.28/330 = 0.255 seconds

Height with sound involved = (84.28 x 0.255) + 84.28 = 105.80 meters

a. Underestimated

A tire measures 20 inches in diameter. How many revolutions will the tire have completed when it has traveled 100 yards? Express
Soloha48 [4]
<h2>Number of revolutions required to travel 100 yards is 57.</h2>

Explanation:

Diameter of tire,D = 20 inches

Perimeter of tire = πD

Perimeter of tire = π x 20 = 62.8 inches

Distance traveled = 100 yards

1 yard = 36 inches

Distance traveled = 100 x 36 = 3600 inches

In one revolution it travels 62.8 inches.

\texttt{No of revolutions = }\frac{3600}{62.8}\\\\\texttt{No of revolutions = }57.32\\\\\texttt{No of revolutions = }57

Number of revolutions required to travel 100 yards is 57.

The heat flux that is applied to one face of a plane wall is q″ = 20 W/m2. The opposite face is exposed to air at temperature 30
Blababa [14]

Answer:

400 W/m^2 and 31℃

Explanation:

The output heat flux q"= 20 W/m^2 (geven)

The output heat flux from.the wall to the air by convection

q"conv = h(ts - t∞)

q"conv = 20(50-30) = 400 W/m^2

Therefor, this case is unsteady and the wall temperature changes with time till the energy balance exist.

ENERGY BALANCE

The input energy must be equal to the output energy for steady state condition. If not the state will be unstaidy or transient.

2. Its noticed that the output heat flux is not that the I put heat flux, therefore the wall tempers will be decreased till the output heat flux is reduced to the value of the given input heat flux

T steady = T∞ +q"/h

= 30 + 20/20 = 31℃

If you started the motor of a boat in the middle of a lake, who would detect the sound of the motor first: a friend sitting on t
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

A friend snorkeling just below the surface of the water along the same shore will detect the sound first.

Explanation:

  • The speed of sound in water medium is faster than that through the air.
  • Sound propagates through the medium by transferring through the molecules on it. Water has more closely packed molecules due to which the speed is faster.
  • In fact, the sound's speed in water is almost four times faster than that in the air.
  • So the guy in the water surface gets to hear sound faster than the one in sore.
