The amount of diffraction of sound waves depends on the medium the sound wave travels to and the frequency. Diffraction happens as soon as it has been out of the source.

Explain the movement in the sky​
Montano1993 [528]

The motion of planets is separate to the motion of stars. Like everything in the sky, they rise in the east, and set in the west, because of the earth's rotation. But night by night, their position at a given time changes because of their orbit around the sun.

A hammer strikes one end of a thick iron rail of length 8.80 m. A microphone located at the opposite end of the rail detects two
stepladder [879]

Answer:

ΔT = 0.02412 s

Explanation:

We will simply calculate the time for both the waves to travel through rail distance.

FOR THE TRAVELING THROUGH RAIL:

T_{rail} = \frac{Distance}{Speed\ of\ Sound\ in\ Rail}\\\\T_{rail} = \frac{8.8\ m}{5950\ m/s}\\\\T_{rail} = 0.00148\ s

FOR THE WAVE TRAVELING THROUGH AIR:

T_{air} = \frac{Distance}{Speed\ of\ Sound\ in\ Air}\\\\T_{air} = \frac{8.8\ m}{343\ m/s}\\\\T_{air} = 0.0256\ s

The separation in time between two pulses can now be given as follows:

\Delta T = T_{air}-T_{rail} \\\Delta T = 0.0256\ s - 0.00148\ s\\

<u>ΔT = 0.02412 s</u>

Question 27 a motorboat takes 3 hours to travel 144km going upstream. the return trip takes 2 hours going downstream. what is th
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
In this item, we let x be the rate of the boat in still water and y be the rate of the current.

Upstream. When the boat is going upstream, the speed in still water is deducted by the speed of the current because the boat goes against the water. The distance covered is calculated by multiplying the number of hours and the speed.
                 (x - y)(3) = 144

Downstream. The speed of the boat going downstream is equal to x + y because the boat goes with the current.
                (x + y)(2) = 144

The system of linear equations we can use to solve for x is,
                  3x - 3y  = 144
                  2x + 2y = 144

We use either elimination or substitution.
 
We solve for the y of the first equation in terms of x,
                   y =  -(144 - 3x)/3

Substitute this to the second equation,
            2x + 2(-1)(144 - 3x)/3 = 144
The value of x from the equation is 60

Scorpion4ik [409]
V= \frac{S}{t}
t= \frac{S}{V}<u />
t= \frac{S}{c}
t= \frac{6.1*10^{12}}{299792458}
t=20347.4098071s

It takes 20347.4098071s for light from the sun to reach Pluto.
The 6.1*10^9 is replaced by 6.1*10^12 on line 4 because we convert the distance from km to m. 
c = speed of light. If a different value was given in the previous question then use that instead of the value I used to do the final calculation.
