When the sound wave returns to the machine, you can measure
how long it took to return.
(You may notice that it's working just like RADAR, which does the
same thing with radio waves instead of sound waves.)
Even if you know how long the sound took to get to the bottom and
return to the top, you can't DO anything with this information if you
don't know the SPEED of the sound through the water. Not only
the inventory of this machine, but anyone who uses it, has to know
the speed of the sound through water in order to use the round-trip
time to calculate the depth.
Answer:
12353 V m⁻¹ = 12.4 kV m⁻¹
Explanation:
Electric field between the plates of the parallel plate capacitor depends on the potential difference across the plates and their distance of separation.Potential difference across the plates V over the distance between the plates gives the electric field between the plates. Potential difference is the amount of work done per unit charge and is given here as 21 V. Electric field is the voltage over distance.
E = V ÷ d = 21 ÷ 0.0017 = 12353 V m⁻¹
Answer:
A) The sum of the kinetic energy and the gravitational potential energy changes by an amount equal to the energy dissipated by friction,
Explanation:
- The kinetic energy is the energy that the object has and is defied by the work that is needed to accelerate the body.
- The gravitational potential is a mechanism by which an equal amount of energy is being transferred per unit mass that is needed for the object to move from the specific location.
- Hence when the sled moves down the hill with the force of gravity it has negligible resistance as an equal amount of energy is dissipated.
The net force will point towards the acceleration of the object, as supported by Newton's second law.
