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>

Upward pull of 850 N on a 81.6 kg bale of hay. What is the magnitude of the bales acceleration?
Helen [10]

Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity).

When I calculate the weight of the 81.6 kg, the number I use for gravity
is 9.807 m/s².  That gives a weight of 800.25 N, so I think that's where the
question got the crazy number of 81.6 kg ... whoever wrote the problem
wants the hay to weigh 800 N, and that's what I'll use for the weight.

The forces on the bale of hay are gravity: 800N downward, and the
guy on the truck with the pitchfork pulling upward on it with 850 N. 
The net force on the bale is (850 - 800) = 50 N upward.

Use Newton's second law of motion:  (Net force) = (mass) x (acceleration)

Divide each side by 'mass' :     
      
                        Acceleration = (net force)/(mass)

On the hay wagon,             

                        Acceleration = (50 N upward) / (81.6 kg) = <em>0.613 m/s² upward</em>

Name some differences between a motor and an electromagnet
Darya [45]
Differences b/w an motor n an electromagnet r :

1- motor is a device which converts electrical energy into mechanical energy while an electromagnet is just a combination of a soft iron core + solenoid....

2- electromagnets r strong temporary magnets while motors don't behave like a magnet

How should the distance, D, between two point charges, q1 and q2, be changed to double their electric potential energy
Licemer1 [7]

The electrostatic potential energy, U, of one point charge q at position d in the presence of an electric field E is defined as the negative of the work W done by the electrostatic force to bring it from the reference position d to that position

u \:  =  \:  \frac{kq1q2}{d}

Thus, to double the electric potential energy U we need to reduce the distance of separation by half (1/2) because they are inversely proportion
