In fresh water sound waves travel at 1497m/s at 25 degrees, I'll assume that's the characteristics of the water.

If it's 0.01s then you need to divide the speed by 100 to get the, 14.97, however it gets there and back in that time so you need to halve it.
<u>7.485m</u>

what is the difference between stirring hot soup with a wooden spoon and a metal spoon? what physical property is being observed
AnnyKZ [126]

Wooden spoons don't quickly heat to hot temperatures not nearly as fast as metal does. Metal conducts heat faster than wood — if the head of the spoon is in a hot liquid, the handle will get hot faster if it's made out of a metal.

A 50.0 N box sliding on a rough horizontal floor, and the only horizontal force acting on it is friction. You observe that at on
Vikki [24]

Answer:

-4.0 N

Explanation:

Since the force of friction is the only force acting on the box, according to Newton's second law its magnitude must be equal to the product between mass (m) and acceleration (a):

F_f = ma (1)

We can find the mass of the box from its weight: in fact, since the weight is W = 50.0 N, its mass will be

m=\frac{W}{g}=\frac{50.0 N}{9.8 m/s^2}=5.1 kg

And we can fidn the acceleration by using the formula:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v = 0 is the final velocity

u = 1.75 m/s is the initial velocity

t = 2.25 s is the time the box needs to stop

Substituting, we find

a=\frac{0-1.75 m/s}{2.25 s}=-0.78 m/s^2

(the acceleration is negative since it is opposite to the motion, so it is a deceleration)

Therefore, substituting into eq.(1) we find the force of friction:

F_f = (5.1 kg)(-0.78 m/s^2)=-4.0 N

Where the negative sign means the direction of the force is opposite to the motion of the box.

Which type of macromolecules a cell brake down food?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Hope this helps you find the answer

Explanation:

The proteins, lipids, and polysaccharides that make up most of the food we eat must be broken down into smaller molecules before our cells can use them—either as a source of energy or as building blocks for other molecules.

At a distance r from a charge e on a particle of mass m the electric field value is
mel-nik [20]

At a distance r from a charge e on a particle of mass m the electric field value is  8.9876 × 10⁹ N·m²/C². Divide the magnitude of the charge by the square of the distance of the charge from the point. Multiply the value from step 1 with Coulomb's constant.

<h3>what is magnitude ?</h3>

Magnitude can be defined as the maximum extent of size and the direction of an object.

It is used as a common factor in vector and scalar quantities, as we know scalar quantities are those quantities that have magnitude only and vector quantities are those quantities have both magnitude and direction.

There are different ways where magnitude is used Magnitude of earthquake,  charge on an electron, force, displacement, Magnitude of gravitational force

Competitive pressures stemming from the threat of entry are stronger when
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Industries outlook is uncertain

Explanation:

Competitive pressures stemming from the threat of entry are stronger when the industry's outlook is uncertain or highly risky, entry barriers are low, and very few existing industry members are looking to expand their market reach by entering product segments or geographic areas where they currently do not have a presence. entry barriers are low, the pool of entry candidates is large, and existing industry members are earning good profits. there are fewer than 10 entry candidates with the potential to hurdle the industry's barriers to entry. t is difficult or costly for a customer to switch to a new brand, the total dollar investment needed to enter the market successfully exceeds $5 million, and existing governmental regulations impose significant cost and compliance burdens on industry members. buyers have strong brand preferences and high degrees of loyalty to their preferred brand and when it takes new entrants less than 5 years to secure attractive amounts of space on retailers' shelves and build a well-recognized brand name.
