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

const2013 [10]

Answer:

Poke or kick the boxes. The sand box is the one that resists the most

Explanation:

The one that resists the most a change in motion (inertia) is the one with the greater mass—the  one filled with sand. Since we cannot open the boxes or perform any weight measurement we can distinguish them by their inertia. Sand has greater mass and thus greater inertia

What is a physical property of giant covalent structures?
pav-90 [236]
Very high melting<span> points - Substances with giant covalent structures have very high</span>melting<span> points, because a lot of strong covalent bonds must be broken. Graphite, for example, has a </span>melting point<span> of more than 3,600ºC. Variable conductivity - Diamond does not conduct electricity.</span>

When you used the energy in our body to pull the rubber band, it was transformed into elastic potential energy. We know that ene
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Converted to heat energy

Explanation:

Some of the elastic potential energy is transformed into heat energy. When we stretch a rubber band, it is often observed that the rubber becomes warmer after the stretch and even during the stretch.

Some energy in the band initially at rest will be converted into elastic potential energy and heat energy as it is stretched .

  • The heat energy is not usually accounted for since the major concern most times is the elastic energy.
  • In this process, heat energy becomes a waste energy.
  • By deducing the efficiency, we would find that this transformation is not efficient as predicted by one of the laws of thermodynamics.
