All we really need to know to answer this one is the speed of sound, and that's not easy. Sound has different speeds in wet air, dry air, warm air, cool air, and air at high or low pressure ... and ALL of these are present on the way from the thunderstorm to you !
So let's just use the number for the speed of sound in dry air at sea level and comfortable temperature: 343 meters/sec.
time = (distance) / (speed)
Time = (1485 meters) / (343 m/s)
Time = (1485/343) second
Time = 4.3 seconds roughly approximately around about
If their volumes are equal, then the denser one has more mass.
Absolutely. There is a force of gravitation between every two specks of mass. There is a gravitational force between the lint in your pocket and the tissue that the mayor of your city dropped into the trash 5 minutes ago. Everything attracts everything else by gravity. But the forces are so weak that we don't notice them compared to the force of the Earth.
Answer:
coz teaching is their profession.
Answer:
F = - K X force exerted by compressed spring
F X = 1/2 M V^2 energy (work) required to produce a speed V for mass M
K X * X = 1/2 M V^2 direction of F is the same as that of V
X^2 = M V^2 / K combining terms
X = (M / K)^1/2 V
X = (.92 / 130)^1/2 * 1.4 = .118 m
