Answer:

.15s

Explanation:

Follow the units here. If you divide 300.000m by 2000m/s then you'll end up with the meters reduced and just the seconds. So that's what you do to get the time:

(300.000m)/(2000m/s ) =

(300.000/2000)(m•s/m) =

0.15s

An astronaut on a space walk floats a little too far away from the space station. Without air to push against, he cannot paddle
Artyom0805 [142]
He can throw the hammer in the direction opposite to the direction he wants to travel in. The hammer will exert an equal and opposite force on him, as per Newton's third law, and this will help him move towards the space station.

Alex is asked to move two boxes of books in contact with each other and resting on a rough floor. He decides to move them at the
Over [174]

Answer:

Part a)

a= 0.32 m/s^2

Part b)

F_c = 3.6 N

Part c)

F_c = 5.5 N

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the friction force on two boxes is given as

F_f = \mu m_a g + \mu m_b g

F_f = 0.02(10.6 + 7)9.81

F_f = 3.45 N

Now we know by Newton's II law

F_{net} = ma

so we have

F_p - F_f = (m_a + m_b) a

9.1 - 3.45 = (10.6 + 7) a

a = \frac{5.65}{17.6}

a= 0.32 m/s^2

Part b)

For block B we know that net force on it will push it forward with same acceleration so we have

F_c - F_f = m_b a

F_c = \mu m_b g + m_b a

F_c = 0.02(7)(9.8) + 7(0.32)

F_c = 3.6 N

Part c)

If Alex push from other side then also the acceleration will be same

So for box B we can say that Net force is given as

F_p - F_f - F_c = m_b a

9.1 - 0.02(7)(9.8) - F_c = 7(0.32)

F_c = 9.1 - 0.02 (7)(9.8) - 7(0.32)

F_c = 5.5 N

The speed of sound in air is around 330 m/s. If a bat emits a single high-pitched ‘click’ of sound in a cave that is 25m wide, c
Bingel [31]

Answer:

0.15 s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Speed of sound (v) = 330 m/s

Distance (x) = 25 m

Time (t) =?

The time taken for the echo of the sound to the bat can be obtained as follow:

v = 2x / t

330 = 2 × 25 / t

330 = 50 / t

Cross multiply

330 × t = 50

Divide both side by 330

t = 50 / 330

t = 0.15 s

Thus, it will take 0.15 s for the echo of the sound to the bat

An object will be stable if __________.
ryzh [129]

Answer:b

Explanation:

Object will be stable if its center of gravity lies over its base of support.

If the center of gravity is above the center of buoyancy then it provides positive righting moment and the object floats over the liquid and such object is said to possess positive meta-centric height.
