a. If such a loud sound were to be made today, an astronaut orbiting in space (a vacuum) at a height of 400 km could hear it.
b. People further from the volcano heard the sound later than people nearer to the volcano.
c. The amplitude of the sound waves would have been smaller further from the volcano.
d. The sound was very loud because a lot of energy was transferred to vibrations of the air.

The third one pls help
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

20 ms¯¹

Explanation:

3. Determination of the final velocity

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

Time (t) = 4 s

Acceleration (a) = 5 ms¯²

Initial velocity (u) = 0 ms¯¹

Final velocity (v) =?

Acceleration is simply defined as the change in velocity per unit time.

Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

Acceleration (a) = final velocity – Initial velocity / time

a = v – u / t

With the above formula, we can obtain the final velocity of the car as follow:

Time (t) = 4 s

Acceleration (a) = 5 ms¯²

Initial velocity (u) = 0 ms¯¹

Final velocity (v) =?

a = v – u / t

5 = v – 0 / 4

5 = v / 4

Cross multiply

v = 5 × 4

v = 20 ms¯¹

Thus, the final velocity of the car is 20 ms¯¹
