Answer:

You can  hear your friend because of diffraction of sound waves.

Explanation:

Through diffraction of sound waves, the sound waves can bend around the door spaces and spread out through any small opening on the door to reach you in the other room yet the other person is not in a direct line with you.The wavelength of sound waves in this case are longer enough to bend around the obstacle(door and the indirect path) and spread out to reach your room for you to hear your friend without directly being in line with the door for you to see them.

Answer:

The sound waves travel through the doorway by means of diffraction

Explanation:

The openings in the doorway allow all sorts of noise through. This is why in studios, they have doors that seal off all sides of the door.

50g of ice at 0°C is mixed with 50g of water at 80°C, what will be the final temperature of a mixture in
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

0° C

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of ice, m = 50g

Mass of water, m(w) = 50g

Temperature of ice, T(i) = 0° C

Temperature of water, T(w) = 80° C

Also, it is known that

Specific heat of water, c = 1 cal/g/°C

Latent heat of ice, L(w) = 89 cal/g

Let us assume T to be the final temperature of mixture.

This makes the energy balance equation:

Heat gained by ice to change itself into water + heat gained by melted ice(water) to raise its temperature at T° C = heat lost by water to reach at T° C

m(i).L(i) + m(i).c(w)[T - 0] = m(w).c(w)[80 - T], on substituting, we have

50 * 80 + 50 * 1(T - 0) = 50 * 1(80 - T)

4000 + 50T = 4000 - 50T

0 = 100 T

T = 0° C

Thus, the final temperature is 0° C

Sati [7]
On the moon, the gravitational acceleration is 1/6 of 9.8 m/s², so
g = 9.8/6 = 1.633 m/s²

Launch speed = 35 m/s
Launch angle = 27°  above the horizontal.
Therefore,
The horizontal velocity is
u = 35*cos(27) = 31.1852 m/s
The vertical launch velocity is
v = 35*sin(27) = 15.8897 m/s

Part A
When the ball reaches maximum height, the time requires is given by
0 = v - gt
t = v/g = 15.8897/1.6333 = 9.7286 s
This is one half of the time of flight, which is
2*9.7286 = 19.457 s

Answer: 19.46 s (2 sig. figs)

A student (m = 68 kg) falls freely from rest and strikes the ground. During the collision with the ground, he comes to rest in a
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

5.7141 m

Explanation:

Here the potential and kinetic energy will balance each other

mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gh}

This is the initial velocity of the system and the final velocity is 0

t = Time taken = 0.04 seconds

F = Force = 18000 N

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}

From Newton's second law

F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=m\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow 18000=68\frac{0-\sqrt{2gh}}{0.04}\\\Rightarrow \frac{18000}{68}\times 0.04=-\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times h}\\\Rightarrow 10.58823=-\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times h}

Squarring both sides

112.11061=2\times 9.81\times h\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{112.11061}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=5.7141\ m

The height from which the student fell is 5.7141 m

When you multiply (2.2500x10^3) x (3.00 x10^5) =675,000,000 report this answer to decimal using scientific notation
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

6.75\times 10^{8}

Explanation:

(2.2500x10^3) x (3.00 x10^5)

First add the power values since all are to power 10 hence this will be 3+5=8

Then multiply the digit intergers ie 2.25*3=6.75

Therefore, in scientific notation this will be represented as 6.75\times 10^{8}
