Two objects are dropped from a bridge, an interval of 1.00 s apart. What is their separation 1.00 s after the second object is r
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

<em>171.5m</em>

Explanation:

The velocity of sound in water = 343m/s

Time taken = 1.00secs

using the formula to calculate the distance

2x = vt

x is the distance

v is the speed of sound

t is the time

x = vt/2

x = 343(1)/2

x = 171.5m

<em>hence their separation 1.00 s after the second object is released is 171.5m</em>

A pitcher throws a softball toward home plate. When the ball hits the catcher’s mitt, its horizontal velocity is 32 meters/secon
n200080 [17]
To calculate the force of impact F, first lets calculate the acceleration a of the ball: 

a=v/t where v is the velocity of the ball and t is time

a=32/0.8=40 m/s²

To get the force F we need the Newtons second law:

F=m*a where m is the mass of the ball and a is the acceleration.

F=m*a= 0.2*40 = 8 N

So the impact force is F= 8 N.

How do longshore currents shape the land?
Sonbull [250]
Longshore drift has a very powerful influence on the shape and composition of the coastline. It changes the slopes of beaches and creates long, narrow shoals of land called spits, that extend out from shore. Longshore drift may also create or destroy entire “barrier islands” along a shoreline.

Starting from rest, a car undergoes a constant acceleration of 6 m/s^2. How far will the car travel in the two seconds?
oksano4ka [1.4K]

If time is specified, the distance may be estimated in constant acceleration using the formula: X=(at2)/2 if the beginning velocity is 0. (A automobile begins from a stop...) As a result, X=(6*10*10)/2=600/2 = 300 m.
