Sound in water travels at a velocity governed by the relation v = √(B/rho) where B is the bulk modulus and rho is the density. F

or salt water, take B = 2.28 × 109 Pa and rho = 1043 kg/m3. A whale sends out a high frequency (10 kHz) song to another whale 1.0 km away.

Answer:

t = 0.67635 s

n = 6764

Explanation:

Given:

- The velocity of sound in water v:

                                    v = √(B/rho)

Where, B: Bulk Modulus = 2.28*10^9 Pa

            rho: Density of salt water = 1043 kg/m^3

- The wale sends out a high frequency f = 10 kHz

- The distance between two wales s = 1.0 km

Find:

- Time taken for the sound to travel between whales t?

- How many wavelengths can fit between the two whales n?

Solution:

- The time taken for the sound to travel from one whale to another can be determined from:

                               t = s / v

                               t = s / √(B/rho)

                               t = s*√(rho/B)

- Plug in the values:

                               t = 1000*√(1043/2.28*10^9)

                              t = 0.67635 s

- The wavelength λ of the sound emitted can be calculated by the following formula:

                               λ = √(B/rho) / f

                               λ = √(2.28*10^9/1043) / 10^4

                               λ =  0.14785 m

- The number of wavelengths n that could fit in the distance s is:

                               n*λ = s

                               n = 1000 / 0.14785

                              n = 6764

How does a parallel circuit differ from a series circuit?
8_murik_8 [283]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. A parallel circuit differ from a series circuit in a sense that a <span>series circuit has one path for electrons, but a parallel circuit has more than one path. In a parallel circuit there two or more paths for current to flow while a series circuit only has one.</span>

Sam's job at the amusement park is to slow down and bring to a stop the boats in the log ride. If a boat and its riders have a m
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Sam will do 1152 J of work to stop the boat

Explanation:

Work: This is defined as the product of force and distance, the S.I unit of work is Joules. At any point in science, during calculation Energy and worked can be interchange because they have the same unit.

E = W = 1/2mv²................ Equation 1

Where E = energy, W = work, m = mass, v = velocity.

Given: m = 900 kg, v = 1.6 m/s

Substituting these values into equation 1

W = 1/2(900)(1.6)²

W = 450×2.56

W = 1152 J.

Therefore Sam will do 1152 J of work to stop the boat

A ball is thrown vertically downward at 10 m/s. what is it’s speed 1s and 2s later
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

20 m/s

30 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = -10 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

When t = 1 s:

v = v₀ + at

v = (-10 m/s) + (-9.8 m/s²) (1 s)

v = -19.8 m/s

When t = 2 s:

v = v₀ + at

v = (-10 m/s) + (-9.8 m/s²) (2 s)

v = -29.6 m/s

Rounded to one significant figures, the speed of the ball at 1 s and 2 s is 20 m/s and 30 m/s, respectively.
