Two fans are watching a baseball game from different positions. One fan is located directly behind home plate, 18.3 m from the b

atter. The other fan is located in the centerfield bleachers, 127 m from the batter. Both fans observe the batter strike the ball at the same time (because the speed of light is about a million times faster than that of sound), but the fan behind home plate hears the sound first. What is the time difference between hearing the sound at the two locations?

Answer:

  • 0.317 s

Explanation:

distance of fan A = 18.3 m

distance of fan B = 127 m

speed of sound (s) = 343 m/s

What is the time difference between hearing the sound at the two locations?

time (T) = distance / speed

  • time for sound to reach fan A = 18.3 / 343 = 0.053 s
  • time it takes for sound to reach fan B = 127 / 343 = 0.370 s
  • time difference = 0.370 - 0.053 = 0.317 s

It is made up mostly of sand. 4. B Horizon - Also called the subsoil - this layer is beneath the E Horizon and above the C Horizon. 5. C Horizon - it's called regolith: the layer beneath the B Horizon and above the R Horizon. 6 R Horizon - this is last and the unweathered rock layer that is beneath all the other layers.</span>

A moving particle is subject to conservative forces only. When its kinetic energy decreases by 10 J, what happens to its mechani
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Its mechanical energy is the same.

Explanation:

If forces are only conservative, the mechanical energy will be the same.

It can be different if energy get transformed in another kind of energy like elastic energy for example, although the amount of energy is always the same.

If we just have mechanical energy not geting transformed we have:

Em=K+U

Em: Mechanical energy

K: Kinetic energý

U: Potential energy

Then if Kinetic energy decreases 10J, Potential energy will grow up 10J to keep the same amount of mechanical energy.
