A column of soldiers, marching at 114 steps per minute, keep in step with the beat of a drummer at the head of the column. It is

observed that the soldiers in the rear end of the column are striding forward with the left foot when the drummer is advancing with the right. What is the approximate length of the column? (Take the speed of sound to be 343 m/s.)

Answer:

length of column is 140.42 m

Explanation:

in 1 min the soldiers travels 114 steps

so to complete 1 step the time taken by the soldiers =

t =  \dfrac{1\ min}{114}

t =  \dfrac{60}{114}  

t = 0.526 s

speed of sound = 343 m/s

length of the column = v × t

                                   = 343 m/s × 0.526 s

                                   = 140.42 m

hence the length of column is 140.42 m

Velocity can best be described by which of the following statements?
pogonyaev

Answer: Velocity can best be described as, the speed in a given direction.

Explanation: To find the answer, we need to know more about the Velocity of a body.

<h3>What is Velocity of a body?</h3>
  • Velocity is the rate of change of displacement.
  • It's a vector quantity and is measured in m/s.
  • It can be positive, negative or zero.
  • A body is said to be in uniform motion, then its velocity remains constant.
  • Change in velocity can be a change in speed.
  • The magnitude of velocity is less than or equal to speed.

Thus, we can conclude that, the option C is best describing velocity.

What is the acceleration if we speed up from 10m/s to 30 m/s in 10 seconds
lina2011 [118]
Acceleration= change in speed/ change in time

30-10= 20 (change in speed)
Time= 10 seconds

20/10= 2
Acceleration= 2 m/s^2

Hope this helps! :)
