A person with his ear to the ground, sees a huge stone strikethe concrete pavement. A moment later two sounds are heard from the

impact: one travels n the air and the other in the concrete, andthey are 2.2 s apart. How far away did the impact occur?
*The speed of sound for air is 343 m/s, for concrete˜3000.

Answer:

d= 852.01 m

Explanation:

Given that

Speed of sound in air u= 343 m/s

Speed of sound in concrete v= 3000  m/s

Lets take time taken by sound in the concrete is t then the time taken by sound in air will be t+2.2 s  .

The distance (d)travel will be same in both the cases.

We know that

Distance =  Velocity x time

So

d= 3000 x t  = 343 x (t+2.2)

3000 t = 343 t + 343 x 2.2

t= 0.284 s

So the distance d

d= 3000 x 0.284 m

d= 852.01 m

Three 20.0 ohm resistors are
V125BC [204]

Answer:

6.67 ohm

Explanation:

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

Resistor 1 (R₁) =20 ohm

Resistor 2 (R₂) = 20 ohm

Resistor 3 (R₃) = 20 ohm

Equivalent Resistance (R) =?

Since the resistors are arranged in parallel connection, the equivalent resistance can be obtained as follow:

1/R = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃

1/R = 1/20 + 1/20 + 1/20

1/R = (1 + 1 + 1) / 20

1/R = 3/20

Invert

R = 20/3

R = 6.67 ohm

Therefore, the equivalent resistance is 6.67 ohm.

Why it is advise to clean the ends of connecting wires before connecting them?
Svetradugi [14.3K]
If dirt and grease were good conductors of electrical current, then we could make wire
out of dirt and grease instead of expensive copper.  Sadly, they're not. So a coating of
dirt and grease on the wire can have a substantial impact on the connection, and can
even block the flow of current across the connection completely.  Moreover, in the case
where the ends of the wires are to be soldered, solder does not adhere to dirty wire.

Does an increase in velocity necessarily mean an increase in acceleration?
Vinil7 [7]
We know, acceleration = final velocity - initial velocity / time
Here, if velocity is increasing, then, 
Final velocity > initial velocity, in that case, acceleration is also increasing, as it is directly proportional to velocity

In short, Your Answer would be "Yes"

Hope this helps!
