1) sound velocity reported by you : 292.39 m /s
2) time to travel 1620m at that velocity: t = d / v = 1620 m / 292.39 m/s = 5.54 s, since the moment the sound wave started.
3) You might wanted to tell the time since you watched the lightning.
Then you can calculate the time since the lighting was generated,1620 m away from you, until you saw it, using the speed of light:
speed of light = 3*10^8 m/s => t = 1620 m / (3*10^8m/s) =0.0000054 s
Then, this time is completely neglectible, and yet the answer is 5.54 s, as calculated in the step 2.
Explanation:
A splint is lit and held near the opening of the tube, then the stopper is removed to expose the splint to the gas. If the gas is flammable, the mixture ignites. This test is most commonly used to identify hydrogen, which extinguishes with a distinctive 'squeaky pop' sound.
The mechanical efficiency = actual work / ideal work
So ζ = 1540 / 1600 * 100% = 96.25%
Answer:
If this explosion is occurring in a closed environment this 'rule' would be:
The conservation of momentum.
Explanation:
In a close system which means the experiment is isolated from the surrounding environment and therefore not allowed to interact with its external space will have the same amount of momentum at the end of the experiment as the beginning by the equation of p=mv, p is momentum, m is mass and v is velocity.
First, let us derive our working equation. We all know that pressure is the force exerted on an area of space. In equation, that would be: P = F/A. From Newton's Law of Second Motion, force is equal to the product of mass and gravity: F = mg. So, we can substitute F to the first equation so that it becomes, P = mg/A. Now, pressure can also be determined as the force exerted by a fluid on an area. This fluid can be measure in terms of volume. Relating volume and mass, we use the parameter of density: ρ = m/V. Simplifying further in terms of height, Volume is the product of the cross-sectional area and the height. So, V = A*h. The working equation will then be derived to be:
P = ρgh
This type of pressure is called the hydrostatic pressure, the pressure exerted by the fluid over a known height. Next, we find the literature data of the density of seawater. From studies, seawater has a density ranging from 1,020 to 1,030 kg/m³. Let's just use 1,020 kg/m³. Substituting the values and making sure that the units are consistent:
P = (1,020 kg/m³)(9.81 m/s²)(11 km)*(1,000 m/1km)
P = 110,068,200 Pa or 110.07 MPa
